This innovative new book examines the ways in which writers' houses
contribute to the making of memory. It shows that houses built or
inhabited by poets and novelists both reflect and construct the
author's private and artistic persona; it also demonstrates how
this materialized process of self-fashioning is subsequently
appropriated within various strategies and policies of cultural
memory.

Futurism began as an artistic and social movement in early
twentieth-century Italy. Until now, much of the scholarship
available in English has focused only on a single individual or art
form. This volume seeks to present a more complete picture of the
movement by exploring the history of the movement, the events
leading up to the movement, and the lasting impact it has had as
well as the individuals involved in it. The History of Futurism:
The Precursors, Protagonists, and Legacies addresses the history
and legacy of what is generally seen as the founding avante-garde
movement of the twentieth century. Geert Buelens, Harald Hendrix,
and Monica Jansen have brought together scholarship from an
international team of specialists to explore the Futurism movement
as a multidisciplinary movement mixing aesthetics, politics, and
science with a particular focus on the literature of the movement.
