  • Notes of Michael J. Zeps, SJ
    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette History Faculty Research and Publications History Department 1-1-2011 Documents of Baudirektion Wien 1919-1941: Notes of Michael J. Zeps, S.J. Michael J. Zeps S.J. Marquette University, [email protected] Preface While doing research in Vienna for my dissertation on relations between Church and State in Austria between the wars I became intrigued by the outward appearance of the public housing projects put up by Red Vienna at the same time. They seemed to have a martial cast to them not at all restricted to the famous Karl-Marx-Hof so, against advice that I would find nothing, I decided to see what could be found in the archives of the Stadtbauamt to tie the architecture of the program to the civil war of 1934 when the structures became the principal focus of conflict. I found no direct tie anywhere in the documents but uncovered some circumstantial evidence that might be explored in the future. One reason for publishing these notes is to save researchers from the same dead end I ran into. This is not to say no evidence was ever present because there are many missing documents in the sequence which might turn up in the future—there is more than one complaint to be found about staff members taking documents and not returning them—and the socialists who controlled the records had an interest in denying any connection both before and after the civil war. Certain kinds of records are simply not there including assessments of personnel which are in the files of the Magistratsdirektion not accessible to the public and minutes of most meetings within the various Magistrats Abteilungen connected with the program.

Purpose & Uses 2. Site Planning 3. Architecture 4. Checklist Purpose & Uses The purpose of the City of Coral Gables, Florida Zoning Code is to implement the Comprehensive Plan (CP) of the City pursuant to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes for the protection and promotion of the safety, health, comfort, morals, convenience, peace, prosperity, appearance and general welfare of the City and its inhabitants. ~ Zoning Code Section 1-103 Purpose of the City of Coral Gables Zoning Code PURPOSE & USE Single-Family Residential (SFR) District The Single-Family Residential (SFR) District is intended to accommodate low density, single-family dwelling units with adequate yards and open space that characterize the residential neighborhoods of the city. The city is unique not only in South Florida but in the country for its historic and archi- tectural treasures, its leafy canopy, and its well-defined and livable neighborhoods. These residential areas, with tree-lined streets and architecture of harmonious proportion and human scale, provide an oasis of charm and tranquility in the midst of an increasingly built-up metropolitan environment. The intent of the Single-Family Residential code is to protect the distinctive character of the city, while encouraging excellent architectural design that is responsible and responsive to the individual context of the city’s diverse neighborhoods. The single-family regulations, as well as the design and performance standards in the Zoning Code, seek to ensure that the renovation of residences as well as the building of residences is in accord with the civic pride and sense of stewardship felt by the citizens of Coral Gables.

  • Gender Dynamics in Renaissance Florence Mary D
    Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal Vol. 11, No. 1 • Fall 2016 The Cloister and the Square: Gender Dynamics in Renaissance Florence Mary D. Garrard eminist scholars have effectively unmasked the misogynist messages of the Fstatues that occupy and patrol the main public square of Florence — most conspicuously, Benvenuto Cellini’s Perseus Slaying Medusa and Giovanni da Bologna’s Rape of a Sabine Woman (Figs. 1, 20). In groundbreaking essays on those statues, Yael Even and Margaret Carroll brought to light the absolutist patriarchal control that was expressed through images of sexual violence.1 The purpose of art, in this way of thinking, was to bolster power by demonstrating its effect. Discussing Cellini’s brutal representation of the decapitated Medusa, Even connected the artist’s gratuitous inclusion of the dismembered body with his psychosexual concerns, and the display of Medusa’s gory head with a terrifying female archetype that is now seen to be under masculine control. Indeed, Cellini’s need to restage the patriarchal execution might be said to express a subconscious response to threat from the female, which he met through psychological reversal, by converting the dangerous female chimera into a feminine victim.2 1 Yael Even, “The Loggia dei Lanzi: A Showcase of Female Subjugation,” and Margaret D. Carroll, “The Erotics of Absolutism: Rubens and the Mystification of Sexual Violence,” The Expanding Discourse: Feminism and Art History, ed. Norma Broude and Mary D. Garrard (New York: HarperCollins, 1992), 127–37, 139–59; and Geraldine A. Johnson, “Idol or Ideal?

The extract-rich body and a finely integrated under- lying acidity lend this Pinot blanc elegance and depth.

Surrounded by the slopes of the Nußberg, the Kahlenberg and the Leopoldsberg and bordered on the east by the Danube, these vineyards produce superior quality year after year.

  • Giorgio Vasari and Mannerist Architecture: a Marriage of Beauty and Function in Urban Spaces
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, October 2016, Vol. 6, No. 10, 1159-1180 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2016.10.007 D DAVID PUBLISHING Giorgio Vasari and Mannerist Architecture: A Marriage of Beauty and Function in Urban Spaces Liana De Girolami Cheney SIELAE, Universidad de Coruña, Coruña, Spain The first part of this essay deals with Giorgio Vasari’s conception of architecture in sixteenth-century Italy, and the second part examines Vasari’s practical application of one of his constructions, the loggia (open gallery or arcade) or corridoio (corridor). The essay also discusses the merits of Vasari’s open gallery (loggia) as a vernacular architectural construct with egalitarian functions and Vasari’s principles of architecture (design, rule, order, and proportion) and beauty (delight and necessity) for the formulation of the theory of art in Mannerism, a sixteenth-century style of art. Keywords: mannerism, fine arts, loggia (open gallery), architectural principles, theory of art, design, beauty, necessity and functionality Chi non ha disegno e grande invenzione da sé, sarà sempre povero di grazia, di perfezione e di giudizio ne’ componimenti grandi d’architettura. [One that lacks design and great invention [in his art] will always have meager architectural constructions lacking beauty, perfection, and judgment.] —Giorgio Vasari Vite (1550/1568)1 Introduction The renowned Mannerist painter, architect, and writer of Florence, Giorgio Vasari (1511-1574, see Figure 1), considered architecture one of the most important aspects of the fine arts or the sister arts (architecture, painting, and sculpture).2 In the first Florentine publication of the Vite with La Torrentina in 1550, Vasari’s original title lists architecture before the other arts: Le vite de più eccellenti architetti, pittori, et scultori Italiani da Cimabue insino a’ tempi nostri.

  • CHIMNEYS Buildings That Are Rehabilitated Should Have Their Chimney and Chimney Tops Restored. Removal of Chimneys Is Not Permi
    CHIMNEYS Buildings that are rehabilitated should have their chimney and chimney tops restored. Removal of chimneys is not permitted. Chimney tops were often decorative as well as watertight. Chimney pots were of pottery and were used on later buildings. The long axes of chimneys were usually parallel to the side walls and perpendicular to the front walls of buildings. Rooftop treatments which conceal the flue must be provided for all "prefab" metal fireplace chimneys. 7. LOGGIAS In Creole style houses, the loggia is a key architectural element. A loggia is defined as "an open, arcaded area", usually on the first floor at the end of a passageway or porte- cochere in Creole townhouses and at the center rear of Creole cottages. It is often the area where the stair to the upper floors is located. Loggias were always covered (under the main roof) and were traditionally open, while the areas directly above them on the upper floors of Creole townhouses were often shuttered or glazed. Loggias which have not been enclosed shall remain open. 5. VENTS A. Vents on buildings allowed air to flow under the raised wooden first floor to reduce dampness and discourage termites.
