Josef Hoffmann (1870–1956) zählt zu den vielseitigsten Persönlichkeiten der Wiener Kunst- und Architekturszene des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts. Sein Name verbindet sich mit der Idee des Gesamtkunstwerks und eines synkretistischen Programms, das unterschiedliche künstlerische Traditionen verschmelzen und dabei individuelle "Eigenarten" hervorheben wollte.

The first standard edition of the writings of Felicia Hemans (1793-1835), this volume marks a revival of interest in, and a new critical appreciation of, one of the most important literary figures of the early nineteenth century. A best-selling poet in England and America, Felicia Hemans was regarded as leading female poet in her day, celebrated as the epitome of national "feminine" values. However, this same narrow perception of her work eventually relegated Hemans to an obscurity lightened occasionally by parody and a sentimental enthusiasm for poems such as "The Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers" and "Casabianca."

This book is the first of its kind showing a new equation between art and architecture. Historically the interface between art and architecture was painting and color. Now in the age of cyberspace the new interface are the media, especially the interactive electronic media that allow the spectator to enter the image, to be in the image space. Thereby deconstructivist architecture represented by the famous group Coop Himmelblau takes a further step, also into research of new interface technologies. Examples of first rank media artists show how the imaginary virtual cyberspace and dataspace, the observer and the built real space can interact.
