Résumé:
Échapper aux ours polaires et aux boeufs musqués, tolérer les blessures, survivre à l’isolement. Avancer... Continuer à avancer. Les Québécois Nicolas Roulx et Guillaume Moreau ont traversé le Canada du nord au sud en canot, ski et vélo. 234 jours, près de 8 mois, c’est le temps qu’ils ont mis pour parcourir les 7 600 kilomètres, un exploit qui n’avait encore jamais été réalisé auparavant. 234 jours est le récit de cette expédition hors norme qui se lit comme un haletant roman d’aventures où l’on découvre que les pires obstacles ne sont pas ceux que l’on croit. Un périple qui se veut aussi une ode à l’immensité, à la beauté du territoire et à ceux et celles qui l’occupent depuis des millénaires.

Résumé:
The follow-up to the celebrated Wanderers, Kerri Andrews’s ''Way makers'' is the first anthology of women’s writing about walking. Moving from Elizabeth Carter’s correspondence with Catherine Talbot in the eighteenth century through to Merryn Glover in the present day, and across poetry, letters, diaries, novels, and more, this anthology traces a long tradition of women’s walking literature. Walking is, for the women included in this anthology, a source of creativity and comfort; it is a means of expressing grief, longing, and desire. It is also a complicated activity: it represents freedom but is also sometimes tinged with danger and fear. What cannot be denied any longer is that walking was, and continues to be, an activity full of physical and emotional significance for women: this anthology is a testament to the rich literary heritage created by generations of women walker-writers over the centuries.

Résumé:
In 'Walking in Berlin', Hessel captures the rhythm of Weimar-era Berlin, recording the seismic shifts in German culture. Nearly all of the essays take the form of a walk or outing, focusing on either a theme or part of the city, and many end at a theater, cinema, or club. 'Walking in Berlin' was a central model for Benjamin’s Arcades Project and remains a classic of “walking literature” that ranges from Surrealist perambulation to Situationist “psychogeography.” This MIT Press edition includes the complete text in translation as well as Benjamin’s essay on 'Walking in Berlin', originally written as a review of the book’s original edition.

Résumé:
Après « Petite géographie de la fuite », Thierry Pardo poursuit sa recherche des espaces de liberté. Cette fois, il marche sur les pas du philosophe naturaliste Henry David Thoreau et met notre époque au défi d'une nouvelle expérience forestière, dans une maison "sans bouton". Sa démarche exploratoire interroge notre relation au monde, à la nature et au silence sans toutefois se couper des questions contemporaines. Comment participer à la poésie de notre vie sans s'abîmer dans les préoccupations de notre siècle ? Comment un petit pas de côté et un saut dans le temps peuvent relier Walden et Weedon et inventer de nouveau la vie dans les bois ? Dans ce bref essai poétique, Thierry Pardo nous invite à contempler le monde différemment.

Résumé:
This book examines the origins of psychogeography in the Paris of the 1950s, exploring the theoretical background and its political application in the work of Guy Debord and the Situationists. ''Psychogeography'' continues to find retrospective validation in much earlier traditions, from the visionary writing of William Blake and Thomas De Quincey to the rise of the flâneur and the avant-garde experimentation of the Surrealists. These precursors to psychogeography are discussed here alongside their modern counterparts, for today these ideas hold greater currency than ever through the popularity of writers and filmmakers such as Iain Sinclair, Will Self and Patrick Keiller.

Résumé:
Few activities seem to promise as much happiness as going travelling: taking off for somewhere else, somewhere far from home, a place with more interesting weather, customs and landscapes. But although we are inundated with advice on where to travel to, we seldom ask why we go and how we might become more fulfilled by doing so. With the help of a selection of writers, artists and thinkers, Alain de Botton provides invaluable insights into everything from holiday romance to hotel minibars, airports to sightseeing. The perfect antidote to those guides that tell us what to do when we get there, this book tries to explain why we really went in the first place - and helpfully suggest how we might be happier on our journeys.
