— This reference: http://www.sustainability.murdoch.edu.au/publications/amhope/smith.html (a transcript of a talk Smith gave at a Scince and Society conference (date?)) - suggests that 'Place, Taste and Tradition' was first published in 1945.

The text of the talk concerns his proposal that the term 'formalesque' should be used to replace the now anachronistic use of the term 'modern' to describe the artistic period beginning in the 1890s and which dominated untilt the 1950's.

  • Ok. Place taste trad was indeed first published in 1945. Red tiles 06:44, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
  • New page created for the formalesque--very light page. Could probably use some help with that one. Red tiles 06:44, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
