L'architecte y égrenne ses considérations, tantôt mordantes, tantôt admiratives, mais toujours percutantes, au sujet de cinquante-neuf personnalités, d'Andy Warhol à Ettore Sottsass en passant par Pierre Soulages, Francis Bacon ou Claude Viallat. Ainsi, Malevitch se voit-il qualifier d' « assassin », tandis qu'Oscar Niemeyer se retrouve « à la droite de Dieu » mais « vit en enfer à cause de la bétonnière », tandis que Beuys est réduit à un « piètre pilote, dompteur de coyotes et grand reporter au Wall Street Journal ».

Cities, estates and routing systems develop, change constantly and fundamentally cannot be planned. Claims to ownership, land and building regulations, planning decisions and political interventions make it difficult for settlement structures to adapt to constantly changing requirements to such an extent that meaningful and totally ecological use of the surface of the earth is becoming increasingly difficult, although new techniques and flexible planning models mean that a connection could be found with the self-designing processes of urban-development history.

Ils suivaient en cela la leçon d’Alberti, qui avait fait de son De re aedificatoria un traité non pas de l’art de bâtir, mais de sa politisation. Car l’architecture humaniste devenait un art de la persuasion. Elle était chargée d’exprimer ce que les mots n’osaient pas encore dire : l’absolutisation du pouvoir princier. Ce petit livre confronte cette folle ambition au déniaisement machiavélien, rappelant que s’il existe un langage architectural, alors celui-ci ménage aussi des non-dits, suscite des incompréhensions, trahit des lapsus.

Summary:
What is it about ruins that are so alluring, so puzzling, that they can hold some of us in endless wonder over the half-erased story they tell? In this elegant book, Robert Harbison explores the captivating hold these remains and broken pieces—from architecture, art, and literature—have on us. He guides us through ruins and fragments, both ancient and modern, visual and textual, showing us how they are crucial to understanding our current mindset and how we arrived here. First looking at ancient fragments, he examines the ways we have recovered, restored, and exhibited them as artworks. Then he moves on to modernist architecture and the ways that it seeks a fragmentary form, examining modern projects that have been designed into existing ruins, such as the Castelvecchio in Verona, Italy and the reconstruction of the Neues Museum in Berlin. From there he explores literature and the works of T. S. Eliot, Montaigne, Coleridge, Joyce, and Sterne, and how they have used fragments as the foundation for creating new work.
