Summary:
Marie Cosnay donne dans ces quelques pages le récit conjugué au pluriel de ce qu’elle a recueilli au cours de plusieurs semaines en immersion dans ce village du Pays basque. De ces notes d’urgence, prises souvent à la hâte, de ces moments passés auprès des acteurs de cette aventure, elle a cousu son texte à partir des rapiècements multiples de son enquête et de son écoute. Elle lance aussi un cri d’alerte à propos de l’écho qui partout agite l’opinion en déformant le plus souvent la réalité de ces arrivées, sur tout le territoire, de migrants contraints. Mais il est rare qu’une libre expression se partage ainsi, à chaud, et relate une expérience d’écriture. Cette forme d’engagement qui demande une disponibilité et une certaine posture est aussi un autoportrait de l’écrivaine à son établi.

Summary:
On the eve of its 50th anniversary, the Landscape Architecture Foundation asked a diverse group of the world's leading landscape architects to reflect on the last half-century and present bold ideas for what the discipline should achieve in the future. Well beyond the public conception of the profession as "gardener" or "park designer," these landscape architects discussed their role in addressing weighty issues like climate change, urbanization, management of vital resources like water, and global inequities. "The New Landscape Declaration" brings together their ideas and experiences in essays from thirty-three preeminent thinkers, including: James Corner, Randy Hester, Kate Orff, Martha Schwartz, Carl Steinitz, Richard Weller, and Kongjian Yu.

Summary:
Omnipresent, essential to life, the little-known living organisms that are trees have begun to generate a growing interest on behalf of the public, as evidenced by the international success of several recent books and movies devoted to the subject. Underestimated by biologists for a long time—like the entirety of the plant kingdom—in recent years they have been the subject of scientific discoveries that have allowed us to see these organisms in a new light. Interestingly, some of these are amongst the oldest and largest members of this community of living things. Boasting sensory and motor skills, capable of communication, existing in symbiosis with other species and the climate, trees are equipped with unexpected faculties whose discovery confirms what traditional knowledge has long since incorporated. The veil has been lifted on a fascinating world—the world of ‘plant intelligence’—which could be the answer to many of today’s technological and environmental problems.
