heavy weight of history

[Dave Monroe]

Pardon my oversight.  Too tired to list further atrocities, but ... but note that
an intial, if not impetus, note that there was a certain .... acceleration?
complication, at any rate, of modernism, modernisms as well, post-The Great War,
The War to (not) End All Wars, and that the standard line (although I do believe
that collage, at least, predates the war) is that much modernist fragmentation
was symptomatic thereof ... do think, however, that, in re: holding things
together, subsuming the pieces nonetheless  into a "greater" whole or whatever,
well, again, something changed ... from that modernist "well-wrought urn" to
postmodernist fragmentation, allegory, whatever ...
