She analyzes works by Jorge Luis Borges, Oliverio Girondo, Jose Ferreyra, Xul Solar, Roberto Arlt, and Horacio Coppola, with a focus on the city of Buenos Aires as a playground of modernity. This was a period of profound change and heightened cultural activity in Argentina. By 1920, Buenos Aires was Latin America's largest and most cosmopolitan center due to massive immigration from Europe. This had drastic effects on the city's socioeconomic and cultural topography and raised political, ideological, and aesthetic issues that shaped the modernist landscape. Artists responded to these changes with conflicting depictions of urban space. Kefala understands these conflicts themselves as a cognitive map of modernity's new realities in the city and in understandings of the city"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Arts, Argentine $z Buenos Aires $z Buenos Aires $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Modernism (Art) $z Buenos Aires. $z Buenos Aires. 650 0 $a Arts and society $z Buenos Aires $z Buenos Aires $x History $y 20th century. 650 6 $a Arts argentins $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 $z Buenos Aires $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $z Buenos Aires $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $x Histoire $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 $y 20e siecle. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 650 6 $a Modernisme (Art) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $z Buenos Aires. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $z Buenos Aires. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 650 6 $a Arts et societe $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 $z Buenos Aires $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $z Buenos Aires $0 (CaQQLa)201-0391420 $x Histoire $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 $y 20e siecle. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0378892 650 7 $a Arts and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00817856 650 7 $a Arts, Argentine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00817903 650 7 $a Modernism (Art) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024442 651 7 $a Argentina $z Buenos Aires. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205786 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Illuminations (Pittsburgh, Pa.) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030833.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=099BD232C48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
