Few designers did more to influence the appearance of postwar American interiors than the furniture designer Gilbert Rohde (1894–1944). This first in-depth book on Rohde explores how he brought an industrial design perspective to the furniture industry and, in the process, introduced modernism to a broad range of Americans, especially through his modular furnishings. By tracing his career at the Herman Miller Furniture Company, where Rohde was a designer in the 1930s and 1940s, Phyllis Ross places his work in a broad cultural and economic context. The book shows how Rohde’s focus on comfo

Representing this modern version are famous antisemites such as Richard Wagner, Henry Ford, and Adolf Hitler, as well as other frequently overlooked writings, many of them in Levy’s own translations. A collection of illustrations, most of them quite rare, offers additional documentation of antisemitic propaganda.

Debates over the ’end of art’ have tended to obscure Hegel’s work on the arts themselves. Benjamin Rutter opens this study with a defence of art’s indispensability to Hegel’s conception of modernity; he then seeks to reorient discussion toward the distinctive values of painting, poetry, and the novel. Working carefully through Hegel’s four lecture series on aesthetics, he identifies the expressive possibilities particular to each medium. Thus, Dutch genre scenes animate the everyday with an appearance of vitality; metaphor frees language from prose; and Goet
