The concept of modernism and its significance to understanding the world around us is revealed through the words of Marshall Berman. He allows the readers to learn about his thoughts, experiences, and ideas and interpret them however we find fitting. The perspective that Berman has on the cultural and political movements throughout the process of modernization helped me understand the power of modernism’s meaning. His hope is that the readers will become familiar with the ideas of modernization and expand our knowledge on the subject.

Zeitgeist is a flawed approach for many reasons, particularly because it distorts history. Historians of the present can inject their own feelings into the past or find random circumstances and exaggerate a connection. Secondly, there can also be more than one Zeitgeist at a given time because there could be one happening in many different countries all at the same time. Cultural events don’t just

The fact that technology is evolving every second means that the way we design, create and even advertise it is changed. Designer can go a long way, in many different directions. Even though the innovations introduced have a major positive impact, they do have a negative one as well.

This specific Zeitgeist took place during the 1970s and deals with one searching for their self identity. During this time, people were losing and searching for who they were, and it brought several thoughts about self identity into this period. This Zeitgeist connected to the cultural trends because it was common for people to move to large cities, such

Ever wonder what opposition to cultural trends can lead someone? Ever question what kind of success can erupt from dislocating and distorting one’s work into a brand unique to no one but yourself? Pablo Picasso and Zaha Hadid were two of the most successful artists within the modernist movement. Both Picasso and Hadid laid the foundation to their success with a strong educational background. While each artist knew that their sheer talent and works would not contribute to their succession alone. Picasso and Hadid sought the importance of defining one’s brand on a global scale. Building a connection between a consumer and their product, both Picasso and Hadid knew that their talent and business practices would allow them to convey

The age of enlightenment is a term used to describe a time in Western philosophy and cultural life centered upon the late 17th and 18th century.

“Zeitgeist is a word that comes straight from German — zeit means "time" and geist means spirit, and the "spirit of the time" is what's going on culturally, religiously, or intellectually during a certain period. Think about how something like Woodstock symbolized the 1960s: Woodstock was part of the Zeitgeist of the 1960s.

That same mindset translated over to politics, social philosophy and economy. That period is known as enlightenment. My personal connection to this period was arduous to find but it was so obvious. I have a deep passion for music and so does my family. From the time that memory form to now there's one thing at my house that has never vanished, a record player. My mothers since I was a child would play music there and even though now we don't use it as much. The physical beauty by itself keeps it in our living room. Now the individuals who created the record is Thomas Edison who also created the lightbulb and motion picture. Thomas Edison was greatly influenced by the Age of Enlightenment. There would be no great Thomas Edison if it was not for the the enlightenment. Now this might not seem like a big personal connection but it is. Music catalogs our memory and when I was child I listen to most of my music through that record player. Everytime I hear a song that has been played through the record player it brings back memories. Whether it be good or bad. What I'm trying to say is that the record player shaped my life. I never understood that. It is mind blowing but that record player shaped my life and it was invented because of the

To begin with, to determine the meaning of postmodernism is possible only through the relationship with modernism. Modernism in modern science is understood as a kind of cultural consciousness, which is implemented in the artistic practice of symbolism, expressionism and acmeism. In the socio-historical context, it means the period of modernism in the development of culture from the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth century, that is, from Impressionism to a new novel and the theatre of the absurd. Modernism as a world based on the principles of urbanism (the cult of the city), technologism (the cult of the industry), primitivism (the cult of the underdeveloped role model), and others. Postmodernism simultaneously grows and is repelled by the picture of the world, established in modernism. Overcoming modernist tendencies, postmodern cult of the city replaces cosmism, values of industrial society - environmentalism, denying mindless nature and asserting the need for harmonious relations between society and nature. Thus, the ideological concept of postmodernism includes the principles of cosmism, environmentalism and post humanism in a culture of active includes sexual minorities, and the ideas of feminism. Art of modernism and postmodernism is the realization of a universal picture of the world, reflecting the human consciousness of the twentieth century, the main feature of which is the new principle of the relation of being and consciousness.

Modernity, it is a macro process of transition from traditional to modern society. “Formation of a modern political map of the world began in early 1800 in Western Europe and maybe characterized as the product of the twin revolutions.” European colonization of the New World, the economic and political development of new territories led to significant changes in the political map. Modernity it is a complex of multi-faceted process that took a place in Europe during the 18th century and had covered all aspects of society. The modernity of the production meant the industrialization - is constantly growing use of machines. In the social sphere modernization is closely linked with urbanization, an unprecedented growth of cities, which led to prevailing in the economic life of society. In the political sphere modernity meant the democracy of political structures, laying the preconditions for the formation of a civil society and rule of law. In the spiritual realm associated with secularization -: the release of all spheres of public and private life from the separation of religion and the church, their worldliness and intensive development of literacy, education, scientific knowledge. All of these are inextricably linked to each other processes of change emotional attitudes of man,

Each time period in history has had their own characteristics, key figures, and impact impact on the world. While each period is equally important to how we progressed from the past, the enlightenment period, from the 1700s to the 1800s, has contributed immensely to how everyday people go about their days. Without even realizing it, people have been molded by the enlightenment period, allowing themselves to face new ideas with an open mind . The grand designs of this period were empiricism, rationalism, and natural law, each still essential to the 21st century. Empiricism, the theory that all knowledge is gained through experience and that we are all born with a clean slate (tabula rasa in latin), has a large following. An example of
