Text 5 (Number 28-36)The concept of "modernism" has a profound history as a movement. Its origins can be traced back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, marked by a radical shift in cultural and artistic norms. It emerged as a reaction against traditional forms and conventions, embodying a desire for innovation and new ways of expression. In 1913, the famous poet Ezra Pound captured the essence of modernism with the phrase "Make it new," urging artists to break away from the past and embrace contemporary experiences. This mantra defined the movement until the mid-20th century, when writers like James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, and T.S. Eliot solidified its principles. They made a cleardistinctionbetween "Modern" and "Victorian" literature, and this distinction soon influenced all other art forms.Modernists challenged previous artistic conventions byemphasizingexperimentation and fragmentation. They prioritized the individual's perspective and subjective experience over the objective reality, often employing stream-of-consciousness techniques and non-linear narratives. The rise of urbanization and industrialization provided a backdrop for these new artistic explorations. Painters and composers also embraced greater freedom in their work. Essentially, the modernist movement granted them a new artistic manifesto, encouraging a break from the past.The modernist movement held contemporary society in a critical light, much like how their predecessors had critiqued the Romantic ideals. This scrutiny was evident in all forms of art. In architecture, it gave rise to the International Style, championed by figures like Le Corbusier and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In literature, it found expression in the works of James Joyce, whose novel "Ulysses" redefined narrative structure and style. Additionally, it inspired groups of artists such as the Surrealists and the Futurists, who sought to explore the unconscious mind and the dynamics of modern life.During this period, the character of music in Europe and America was unique. Stravinsky's "The Rite of Spring" marked the rise of modernist music, which was further established by composers like Arnold Schoenberg. Schoenberg's atonal compositions, such as "Pierrot Lunaire," incorporated radical departures from traditional harmony and form. These works, along with those by Béla Bartók, paved the way for the avant-garde music of the mid-20th century. John Cage's experimental pieces, drawing on chance operations and unconventional sound sources, exemplified the modernist ethos in music.In the visual arts, artists like Pablo Picasso and Marcel Duchamp revolutionized the perception of art with Cubism and Dadaism, respectively. Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon" and Duchamp's "Fountain" challenged conventional aesthetics and the definition of art itself. The Bauhaus movement, led by Walter Gropius, integrated art, craft, and technology, influencing design and architecture worldwide.In literature, the modernist movement continued to evolve with the works of writers like William Faulkner and Samuel Beckett. Faulkner's intricate narrative techniques and Beckett's minimalist approach to drama underscored the diversity within modernist expression. The movement's influence extended into cinema as well, with directors like Sergei Eisenstein and Jean-Luc Godard exploring new ways to tell stories through film.What is the main idea of the passage …
