architextural
Language: English
Part of speech: adj
Forms: form: more architextural
form: most architextural
Senses: examples: text: Dickens's architextures do not present us with a form – of a building, of the city – as a meaning, system or structure. Rather, we are presented with the textual event, the architextural event, as a means of exposing the limits of fixed meaning, and, by this, the limits of the utterable.
ref: 1995, Ruth Robbins, Julian Wolfreys, Victorian Identities, page 210:
text: In this spirit, the architextural inquiry looks to borders not as simple and pre-existent physicalities but as social representations that enforce a spatial code of proxemics, or distances.
ref: 2005, Ian Townsend Gault, Heather Nora Nicol, Holding the Line: Borders in a Global World, page 297:
text: By exploring this “architextural” interrelationship between the spatial structures of counter-hegemonic urban regions and the textual structures of experimental poetry, “Howl” connects its critical analysis of urban space with its attempt to develop new aesthetic forms.
ref: 2013, Robert Bennett, Deconstructing Post-WWII New York City, page 17:
text: Brontë manipulates readers' expectations through her architextural signals: for example, direct mention of Johnson's work when she shows Helen Burns reading it.

glosses: Pertaining to architexture.
examples: text: Of course, this whole method of measuring architextural merit is pretty suspect. What happens if one of the compilers is agressive^([sic]) and starts unrolling loops? Bigger code, surely; but often faster too. (for example, does the MIPS compiler unroll daxpy? some of svd? others?)
ref: 1989 November 4, Preston Briggs, “Unsafe at any speed”, in comp.arch (Usenet), retrieved 01 Jun 2022:
text: Who plays the biggest role.. is always up for grabs. I'd bet the architects involved are VERY willing to say they took only a supporting role!!! Yea right!! Nah.. they're probably bitching about the crazy designs that artists drew that they then needed to make into viable constructions. And stuff life^([sic]) the majic^([sic]) kingdom palace is based upon a real castle which is an architextural building. Many factors influence the creation of anything. To attribute it to one man Disney is silly.
ref: 1995 December 22, Thomas C. Waters, “Most Influencial^([sic]) Artist Ever . . . ?”, in rec.arts.fine (Usenet), retrieved 01 Jun 2022:
text: That house is no palace, it's actually a period bungalow/arts and crafts style, circa 1920s... and not a very good example... it was a very common architextural style, It would be worth a lot more in a better neighborhood but where it sits on that tiny lot and in its run down condition, it needs serious updating... I'd not pay a nickle^([sic]) more than 80K.
