EnglishThe present paper focuses on the reciprocal influences between visual arts and literature from the end of the nineteenth century up to the 1930s, notably with regard to geometric abstraction. From the statement of «the end of scientific perspective» (F. Novotny), via the abstract art and the constructivism all the way to the concrete art and poetry, this essay will examine the question of geometry and perspective within the scope of art and literature, thereby analysing two works of prose by Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948): Auguste Bolte (1922) and Horizontale Geschichte (1926) as well as some of his aesthetic works. Schwitters pushes experimentation with the geometric abstraction to the extreme, oriented by the Romantic movement and by the technical and scientific discoveries from the seventeenth into the nineteenth Century and he signalises an interest in the invisible logics within matter, which will be in the second part of the Twentieth Century the subject of so-called «fractal geometry». The way Schwitters deals with these issues as themes for his literary works is a very interesting case of study.

| Abstract: | The present paper focuses on the reciprocal influences between visual arts and literature from the end of the nineteenth century up to the 1930s, notably with regard to geometric abstraction. From the statement of «the end of scientific perspective» (F. Novotny), via the abstract art and the constructivism all the way to the concrete art and poetry, this essay will examine the question of geometry and perspective within the scope of art and literature, thereby analysing two works of prose by Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948): Auguste Bolte (1922) and Horizontale Geschichte (1926) as well as some of his aesthetic works. Schwitters pushes experimentation with the geometric abstraction to the extreme, oriented by the Romantic movement and by the technical and scientific discoveries from the seventeenth into the nineteenth Century and he signalises an interest in the invisible logics within matter, which will be in the second part of the Twentieth Century the subject of so-called «fractal geometry». The way Schwitters deals with these issues as themes for his literary works is a very interesting case of study. |
