During Paul's long career in architecture he has witnessed events and changes of prime importance in the history of architecture in Chicago of the past fifty years, and he has known and worked with colleagues, now deceased, of major interest and significance. Paul retains memories dating back to the 1920s which give his recollections and judgments special authority. Moreover, he speaks as both an architect and an educator. Our recording sessions were taped on four 90-minute cassettes that have been transcribed, edited and reviewed for clarity and accuracy. This transcription has been minimally edited in order to maintain the flow, spirit and tone of Paul's original thought.

  • BOITA BANDANA UTSHAVA and BALI YATRA in ODISHA Colonel JC Mahanti (Retired) 25Thnovember 2015'
    BOITA BANDANA UTSHAVA AND BALI YATRA IN ODISHA Colonel JC Mahanti (Retired) 25thNovember 2015' Boita bandana utshava and Bali yatra are two important annual events held on the Kartika purnima. They mark the conclusion of all religious activities of Kartika month which is considered as the most holy month of the lunar year. Both are the reminiscent of maritime trade that once flourished in the State. Boita bandana utshava is a socio-religious festival whereas, Bali yatra is a large trade fair. Boita bandana utshava: -Boita in local language is an argosy or a large sail boat and bandana is worshipping with lighted lamp (dipa). Thus, Boita bandana utshava symbolises the festival of worship of sail boats with lighted lamps. It is to commemorate the maritime trade of the people of ancient Odisha (Kalinga). Centuries back, the sadabha (maritime traders) of the State used to sail off to distant Indonesian archipelagos (Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Bali) for trade and cultural exchange in boitas. Those days, the marine engineering had not developed as it is now. The boitas used to navigate with the manipulations of ajhala (large fabric sails) fixed on their masts in the direction of the wind. During the lunar months Aswina to Margasira (October to December), the sea was generally tranquil and the wind blew in the north-easterly direction. Again from lunar months Pausa to Baisakha (January to March) the wind blew in the reverse direction and those were the times for their return voyage. Thereafter, the sea became turbulent due to the onset of south eastern monsoon and the voyages were suspended.

  • AB O UT NABAT BOO KS NABAT BOOKS Is a Series
    ABOUT NA BAT BOOKS NABAT BOOKS is a series dedicated to reprinting forgotten mem­ oirs by various misfits, outsiders, and rebels. The underlying concept is based on a few simple propositions: That to be a success under the current definitionis highly toxic - wealth, fame and power are a poison cocktail; that this era of tri­ umphal capitalism glorifies the most dreary human traits like greed and self-interest as good and natural; that the "winners" version of reality and history is deeply lame and soul-rotting stuff Given this, it follows thatthe truly interesting and meaningfullives and real adven­ tures are only to be had on the margins of what Kenneth Rexroth called "the social lie". It's with the dropouts, misfits, dissidents, rene­ gades and revolutionaries, against the grain, between the cracks and amongst the enemies of the state that the good stuffcan be found. Fortunately there is a mighty subterranean river of testimony fromthe disaffected, a large cache of hidden history, of public secrets over­ looked by the drab conventional wisdom that Nabat books aims to tap into. A little something to set against the crushed hopes, mountains of corpses, and commodification of everything. Actually, we think, it's the best thing western civilization has going foritself .

  • ART DECO and BRAZILIAN MODERNISM a Dissertation
    SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy in Spanish By Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Washington, DC January 23, 2014 Copyright by Patricia A. Soler All rights reserved ii SLEEK WORDS: ART DECO AND BRAZILIAN MODERNISM Patricia A. Soler, M.S. Thesis advisor: Gwen Kirkpatrick, Ph.D. ABSTRACT I explore Art Deco in the Brazilian Modernist movement during the 1920s. Art Deco is a decorative arts style that rose to global prominence during this decade and its proponents adopted and adapted the style in order to nationalize it; in the case of Brazil, the style became nationalized primarily by means of the application of indigenous motifs. The Brazilian Modernists created their own manifestations of the style, particularly in illustration and graphic design. I make this analysis by utilizing primary source materials to demonstrate the style’s prominence in Brazilian Modernism and by exploring the handcrafted and mechanical techniques used to produce the movement’s printed texts. I explore the origins of the Art Deco style and the decorative arts field and determine the sources for the style, specifically avant-garde, primitivist, and erotic sources, to demonstrate the style’s elasticity. Its elasticity allowed it to be nationalized on a global scale during the 1920s; by the 1930s, however, many fascist-leaning forces co- opted the style for their own projects. I examine the architectural field in the Brazil during the 1920s.
