Nesting.I was about to send out a plea for further and better information about Cloud-Cuckoo-Land, the international journal of architectural theory when I found it at www.tu-cottbus.de/BTU/Fak2/TheoArch/wolke/cloud_1.html#. This is an online publication written in German, English and Russian and edited by Eduard Fuhr with an advisory board of people from all over--Yekaterinburg, Graz, Yale and several places in Germany The following lists include geographical features within the states of Germany. For cities see List of cities in Germany; for districts see List of German districts; for urban districts see List of German urban districts. . That might, but probably doesn't, mean that this is an accredited accredited recognition by an appropriate authority that the performance of a particular institution has satisfied a prestated set of criteria. accredited herds cattle herds which have achieved a low level of reactors to, e.g. refereed journal refereed journal, n a professional or literary journal or publication in which articles or papers are selected for publication by a panel of readers or referees who are experts in the field. . I'm not sure if Cloud Cuckoo Land has quite the same meaning in German as it does in English. The German explanation is that the name is taken from Aristophanes's play, The Birds, in which birds, fed up with humanity, create a city in the sky. So that the magazine is devoted to creating a virtual space where people can carry out architectural discourse 'in between the clouds'. That sounds a tad wimpish wimp Slang n. A person who is regarded as weak or ineffectual: "the impression that he is a colorless, indecisive wimp, and not a leader among men" James J. Kilpatrick. but it's not, because this is a robust publication with some interesting material. |
