This book seeks to demonstrate the transformations of Lewis Mumford's writings as they are effected by the conditions of being read in a different cultural context. The book accepts that meaning is culture-specific. Tschachler argues that the German "Mumford" is shaped both by attitudes toward the United States and toward American culture, and by the political culture and historical development in German-speaking countries. The first part examines the "Mumfords" that emerge when the man is understood from within German cultural texts. The second part records Mumford's books, articles, and other items as they have been translated into and published in German-speaking countries; it also records German-language criticism of Mumford in serial publications and books containing material on Mumford, and on works that treat Mumford in a wider perspective, respond to and apply his thought. Contents: Acknowledgements; Introduction; From Sticks and Stones to The Myth of the Machine: Readings and Misreadings; Three Framing Discourses for The Myth of the Machine; The Framing Discourses Reconsidered; Appendix: Lewis Mumford in German Translation and Criticism; Works Cited; Index.

The Embodyment Of American Culture written by Heinz Tschachler and has been published by LIT Verlag Münster this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2003 with Body, Human categories.
American culture has literally become fixated on the body at the same time that the body has emerged as a key term within critical and cultural theory. Contributions thus address the body as a site of the cultural construction of various identities, which are themselves enacted, negotiated, or subverted through bodily practices. Contributions come from literary and cultural studies, film and media studies, history and sociology, and women studies, and are representative of many theoretical positions, hermeneutic, historical, structuralist, feminist, postmodernist. They deal with representations and discursifications of the body in a broad array of texts, in literature, the visual arts, theater, the performing arts, film and mass media, science and technology, as well as in various cultural practices.

"Identity is one of the central cultural narratives of the US on which both dominant and resistant discourses draw. This critical anthology honors the topic's diversity while concentrating on one central aspect, that of newness. Construction of identities, their invention, reinvention and reformulation are discussed within four thematic categories: New Concepts and Reconsiderations, Migration and Multiple Identities, Individuation and Privatized Identity Construction, and (Re-) Inventions and Virtual Identities. Written by European as well as U. S. scholars, ranging from the 19th century to the utopian future, from mainstream canonized figures to transgender performers, from a critique of individualism to a celebration of loneliness, the articles present a cross-section of current research on U.S. identities.
