Considering on the crisis and dilemma of monumentality in Modern architecture, this study analyse the historic reason of decay and new possibility of monumentality within the context of contemporary socio-cultural context. Historically monumentality has been considered as a main substance of High architecture in the tradition of Western Architecture. Difference between building and architecture mainly lies in monumentality which brings about esthetic quality. Usually architects take it granted that the physical and formal characteristics automatically cause the monumentality. But since the modern period the decline of communicative and representative function of architecture made this belief questionable. As Monumentality itself faced the dilemma with the modernity, ironically architects has to response to the task to handle the increasing social demands of monumental building. This study firstly shows the dilemma of monumentality in depth in case of the holocaust museum. Then we analyse the concept of monumentality itself by means of theoretical view of A Loos and A Riegl We also analyse the change of role which monumental building played in history. Cultural and social change of context, and fundamental change of architecture old way of building a monument impossible. In conclusion this study proposes the new concept and searches new horizon of monumentality with a finding of the otherness of monumentality. Conventional monumental building language has to give way to new approaches. With some examples we already can find a new possibility.

This study provides a possibility of analysing rhythmic attributes of contemporary music through contour theory.The early idea of pitch contour occured as early as 1948 in the writing ofcomposers such as Toch and Schoenberg Over a decade later, the work of Charles Seeger, Charles Adams, and Micczyslaw Kollinski set forth the theories of contour analysis But, in the music theory, the concept was formalized by Robcrt Morris Michael Friedmann, and Larry Polansky, Elizabeth Marvin and Robert Morris, in particular, have signiflcantly developed the analytical methodology with which to apply the contour thory.contrast to the previous results of contour music analysis, which focused onpitch element, this analysis presumes that the rhytbms also show similar characterTo prove the hypothesis this thesis re-classified the Elizabeth Marvin and Noel Painenr's rhythmic analysis theories and adjusted the result into Stockhousen's In freundschaft. As a result the number of rtythmic characters that continuously appear in contemporary music were found Also, the possibility of defining similarities of ythmic element through various methods by adjusting the theories including inversion and retrograde, that are similar to set theory, was found.The contour theory will be a good example of analysing rhythms in contemporary music that were believed to be inconsistent in the past.
