Marinetti published his incendiary Futurist Manifesto  proclaiming  We stand on the last promontory of the centuries!! and There  on the earth  the earliest dawn! Intent on delivering Italy from its fetid cancer of professors  archaeologists  tour guides  and antiquarians  the Futurists imagined that art  architecture  literature  and music would function like a machine  transforming the world rather than merely reflecting it. But within a decade  Futurisms utopian ambitions were being wedded to Fascist politics  an alliance that would tragically mar its reputation in the century to follow.  Published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the founding of Futurism  this is the most complete anthology of Futurist manifestos  poems  plays  and images ever to bepublished in English  spanning from 1909 to 1944. Now  amidst another era of unprecedented technological change and cultural crisis  is a pivotal moment to reevaluate Futurism and its haunting legacy for Western civilization.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45651919962165,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300088752","price":830.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780300088755.jpg?v=1781845222","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/futurism-an-anthology-9780300088755","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
