Such an emphasis implicitly identifies it with the pioneer time, if the early programs of the modernists are seen from the basic motive to find new, humanely valid sources and arguments for a new world architecture. The following focuses on this. This will lead us to an exemplaric discussion of the fundamental problems of architecture within the framework of art-theory and its corresponding methods. It is evident that they are built on sand. Evidently, the title does not just reflect the aim to appeal to a large readership.
Language implies something generally humane and culturally original.
It is a cleverly arranged detour towards anthropology. In a much wider sense, everything visible, hearable, touchable and enjoyable has language. Architecture is set into this basic framework, and very heterogeneous approaches are thus possible. Doubtless, this means an important opening, and certainly a welcome one within the history of art. With this enormously wide concept of language, however, great imprecision and methodological entangling is possible.
