In one of the first English studies of his work, Fatima Naqvi focuses on the Austrian author's critique of education (Bildung) through the edifices in which it takes place. She demonstrates that both literature and architecture are implicated in the concept of Bildung. His writings insist that learning has always been a life-long process that is helped--or hindered--by the particular buildings in which Bildung occurs. Naqvi offers close readings of Bernhard's major prose works, from \u003ci\u003eAmras \u003c\/i\u003e(1964) to \u003ci\u003eOld Masters \u003c\/i\u003e(1985) and brings them into dialogue with major architectural debates of the times. She examines Bernard's interrogation of the theoretical foundations underpinning the educational system and its actual sites.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fatima Naqvi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0810131994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810131996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwestern University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Fatima Naqvi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48517458297087,"sku":"9780810131996","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8a9a9564-84c5-4247-85c7-a9fd5ee76eaf.jpg?v=1778731941","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-we-learn-where-we-fatima-naqvi-9780810131996","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
