D'Eschyle à Kissinger, de Marx à Barrès, l'Occident a tenu un discours sur l'Orient. Mais, puisque "l'Orient" n'existe pas, d'où vient ce discours et comment expliquer son étonnante stabilité à travers les âges et les idéologies?

Summary:
D'Eschyle à Kissinger, de Marx à Barrès, l'Occident a tenu un discours sur l'Orient. Mais, puisque "l'Orient" n'existe pas, d'où vient ce discours et comment expliquer son étonnante stabilité à travers les âges et les idéologies? "L'Orient" est une création de l'Occident, son double, son contraire, l'incarnation de ses craintes et de son sentiment de supériorité tout à la fois, la chair d'un corps dont il ne voudrait être que l'esprit. A étudier l'orientalisme, présent en politique et en littérature, dans les récits de voyage et dans la science, on apprend donc peu de choses sur l'Orient, et beaucoup sur l'Occident. C'est de ce discours qu'on trouvera ici la magistrale archéologie, augmentée de la préface que l'auteur rédigea en 2003 pour le 25e anniversaire de la publication originale de l'ouvrage.

Summary:
Provocative and enlightening, Richard Sennett's "The Craftsman" is an exploration of craftsmanship - the desire to do a job well for its own sake - as a template for living. Most of us have to work. But is work just a means to an end? In trying to make a living, have we lost touch with the idea of making things well? Pure competition, Sennett shows, will never produce(...)

Provocative and enlightening, Richard Sennett's "The Craftsman" is an exploration of craftsmanship - the desire to do a job well for its own sake - as a template for living. Most of us have to work. But is work just a means to an end? In trying to make a living, have we lost touch with the idea of making things well? Pure competition, Sennett shows, will never produce good work. Instead, the values of the craftsman, whether in a Stradivari violin workshop or a modern laboratory, can enrich our lives and change the way we anchor ourselves in the world around us. The past lives of crafts and craftsmen show us ways of working - using tools, acquiring skills, thinking about materials - which provide rewarding alternative ways for people to utilise their talents. We need to recognize this if motivations are to be understood and lives made as fulfilling as possible.

Summary:
Les maisons d’architecte japonaises intriguent. Souvent mal comprises et extraites de leur contexte physique, culturel et social, elles évoquent une course étrange et frénétique à la nouveauté, voire un rapport mal cerné à la tradition. Ce livre cherche à donner des repères historiques et contextuels qui permettent de mieux comprendre les conditions d’élaboration et de production de ces maisons. Les auteurs ont sélectionné 14 maisons d’hier et 20 d’aujourd’hui. Les premières constituent les jalons du XXè siècle. Les secondes sont récentes et montrent une nouvelle génération de créateurs à l’œuvre. Ces études de cas, composées d’interviews, de plans, de photos et de films, offrent un florilège à la fois didactique et léger, où l’ordinaire côtoie toujours l’exotique. Ce livre est le catalogue de l’exposition Japon L’archipel de la Maison.

As an advocate for architecture’s engagement with history, culture, climate, and the lived human experience of buildings and urban spaces, he created designs that privileged place and the daily rituals in the lives of its inhabitants over universal ideals. In this volume, enlivened by 300 illustrations from the Aldo van Eyck archive, Robert McCarter provides the first comprehensive study of van Eyck’s 50-year career since his death, guiding readers through the architect’s buildings and unrealized projects, with a focus on the interior spatial experience and on the design and construction processes.
