Jugendstil in modernist illustrated literary magazines
Abstract
The modernist magazines Revista de América (Buenos Aires), Cosmópolis (Caracas) and Mundial (Paris), demand a look crossed by jugendstil. The reading we propose in this article, of these magazines as artifacts, will take into account the relationship they have with this style of the intercentury and with other literary journals and magazines, not necessarily modernist. Going back to the last decade of the 19th century can show the complexity of the transition from writing to illustration in which, along with the introduction of new technologies, the ways of seeing and thinking about art are modified when the hierarchies between literary and graphic genres are disrupted, and the pure and applied arts are related to each other.
