This chapter continues the genealogical account of illegalism, propaganda of the deed, revolutionary warfare, and post-millennial, insurrectionary networks of attack. To this end, the chapter explores the strategy of Paris communard Louis Auguste Blanqui, the contribution of ‘classical anarchists’ and the twentieth century, the influence of European theorists such as Alfredo Bonanno, Tiqqun and The Invisible Committee, and the contributions anonymous thinkers who have frequently authored key texts. In the latter portion of the chapter, the focus shifts towards the contributions of Queer insurrectionary praxis and the experience of rejectionist, anti-assimilationists. Finally, the chapter revisits the question of canonization in preparation for the subsequent chapter, which outlines the insurrectionary tendency discursively.

Abstract The ways of approaching, treating and interpreting the theatre underwent major changes in the second half of the twentieth century. As Peter Brook’s research contributes decisively to changing the perspective of understanding the nature and the meanings of theatre, the present paper aims to highlight and briefly analyze the most relevant stages of his research. His studies focused on identifying a universal language of theatre reveal key concepts and notions such as the empty space, the visible and the invisible, the holy and the rough in the immediate, the diversity, the homogeneous group, the storyteller with many heads in which still nowadays theatre scholars and practitioners are interested. At the same time, certain results of his research are exploited in his performances in which the emphasis is placed on the scenic presence of the actor, and which denote both a continuous experimentation of scenic forms and a personal way of speaking about truth in the theatre.

Cartels were critical to the shaping of twentieth-century market structures. Although laws against cartels began to be passed in the 1950s, the attitude toward these collusive organizations remained constant over most of the century. Enforcement did not begin until well into the 1990s. Dutch policy within the European framework underwent a series of adjustments, and changes in the Dutch business system indicate a shift toward a more liberal market economy, which was accompanied by an increasingly negative view of cartels.

From the diagram, which inscribes the line (διά-γράφειν), to the choreography (χορεία-γραφία), which inscribes the choir into the written form, we remark but a short step from the scène of the dance to the scène of the writing. The writing of dance, and likewise the writing of the body, makes the invisible visible within the movement. Bridging between notation, as capacity for mobilisation of new intuitions, and diagrammatization of forms and movements to compel the thought of new gestures, the diagram stands out as a scène or ‘picture’ whose axes (points, lines, arrows, circles, volumes…) simultaneously structure mobility in order to grasp the pulsating movement. The twentieth-century artistic avant-gardes will not remain indifferent to this ideography that, through leap and condensation, makes the materialization of the idea, the idea in the writing, possible.

The aim of this chapter is to position insurrectionary methods within a more diverse history of militant resistance; specially those socio-political movements employing urban guerrilla warfare. This discussion begins by outlining the strategy of insurrectionary warfare based in the more centrally located movements texts such as The Coming Insurrection authored by the Invisible Committee. These strategic proscriptions are compared to Marxist-Leninist and national-separatist movements of the mid to late twentieth century to both demonstrate the similarity and highlight difference. This approach argues that modern insurrectionary methods can be understood as a rearticulation of the strategy of urban guerrilla warfare based in the model of the affinity group, and adoptable moniker popularized during the period of anti-globalization summit hopping. This chapter also examines key inter-movement questions such as ‘Is insurrectionary violence considered terrorism?’, and ‘Clandestine cells carrying out attacks claim responsibility for their actions?’

The transformation of narrative techniques in works from the nineteenth to the twentieth century clearly shows the existence of some forms of interaction between literature and photography. This interaction defines ‘The Photographic’ as a Denkfigur of linguistic mediality, as the analysis of the exemplary novel La vie meurtrière (1907/08) by the writer-artist Félix Vallotton (1865-1925) reveals. His écriture can be associated with the semiotic properties of the technical medium of photography. The author aspires to leave a photographic ‘trace’ throughout his novel by attempting to appropriate techniques such as the snapshot. In this way, the text creates a medial simulation, which generates breaches between the visible and the invisible, thereby dealing with the linguistic representation of mental, ‘non-representable’ images.

It is ten years since KAROL SZYMANOWSKI died at fifty-four. He was the most prominent representative of the “radical progressive” group of early twentieth century composers, which we call “Young Poland.” In their manysided and pioneering efforts they prepared the fertile soil on which Poland's present day's music thrives.
