The most characteristic building projects of the nineteenth century-railroad stations, exhibition halls, department stores (according to Giedion)-a11 have matters of collective importance as their object. The fliilleur feels drawn to these "despised, everyday" structures, as Giedion calls them. In these constructions, the appearance of great masses on the stage of history was already foreseen. They form the eccentric frame within which the last privateers so readily dis· played themselves. (See Kia,S.) [M21a,2]
