Over its more than 20 years in print, OASEhas evolved into a reflective, critical journal, an excellent venue for the theme of this, its seventieth issue, Architecture and Literature.A favorable economic and political climate encourages single-minded designing and building, as the 'SuperDutch' phenomenon has in OASE's native Netherlands, but OASE's editors suggest that a boom is exactly the time to look for new perspectives and approaches in literary reflection, to seek encounters between artistic disciplines, to see what reciprocal exchange might offer to architectural practice. OASE 70discusses the (auto-)biographical novel, in which highly personal descriptions and narratives challenge us to look at architecture in a different way, and at what literary reflection can represent for architectural practice.Maaskant, Madeleine is the author of 'Oase 70 Architecture And Literature', published 2007 under ISBN 9789056624873 and ISBN 9056624873.
