Summary:
Si on comprend aisément que les concepteurs de formes et d’espaces aient quotidiennement recours aux figures de l’analogie pour imaginer leurs projets, on sait moins que de nombreuses théories et doctrines de l’architecture lui sont tout autant redevables. Sorte de secret mal gardé, l’analogie serait de fait une des grandes matrices de l’architecture. Examinant(...)

Si on comprend aisément que les concepteurs de formes et d’espaces aient quotidiennement recours aux figures de l’analogie pour imaginer leurs projets, on sait moins que de nombreuses théories et doctrines de l’architecture lui sont tout autant redevables. Sorte de secret mal gardé, l’analogie serait de fait une des grandes matrices de l’architecture. Examinant rigoureusement la portée pratique et théorique de cette hypothèse, les études d’histoire critique rassemblées dans ce premier ouvrage se consacrent à trois registres de la modernité qui éclairent l’architecture contemporaine : les conceptions de la vie et de la biologie (des images du corps aux principes de la génétique),les conceptions de la ville (en reconstituant les contours et les enjeux de ce que l’architecte Aldo Rossi appelait une « ville analogue »), et les conceptions mêmes de la conception (dont les modèles analogiques permettent de rendre compte des circonvolutions de l’imagination et de la réflexion architecturale).

Summary:
The Project of Autonomy radically rediscusses the concept of autonomy in politics and architecture by tracing a concise and polemical argument about its history in Italy in the 1960s and early 1970s. Architect and educator Pier Vittorio Aureli analyzes the position of the Operaism movement, formed by a group of intellectuals that produced a powerful and rigorous critique of capitalism and its intersections with two of the most radical architectural-urban theories of the day: Aldo Rossi's redefinition of the architecture of the city and Archizoom's No-stop City. Readers are introduced to major figures like Mario Tronti and Raniero Panzieri, who previously have been little known in the English-speaking world, especially in an architectural context, and to the political motivations behind the theories of Rossi and Archizoom. The book draws on significant new source material, including recent interviews by the author and untranslated documents.

Il est conçu autour de dix-huit essais. Ceux-ci entrecroisent écrits d’architectes (de J.N.L. Durand et J.Guadet à Le Corbusier, A. Rossi, R. Koolhaas et Ant Farm), d’ingénieur (H. Hossdorf) de musiciens (A.Schönberg, L. Nono), d’artiste (D. Graham), de linguiste (Hjemslev), de philosophes (L.Wittgenstein, Th.W. Adorno, M. Cacciari, S. Toulmin), et d’écrivains-essayistes (de W.H. Pater à Th. Mann, M. Blanchot et J. L. Borges). Les auteurs : Guillemette Morel-Journel, Sylvain Malfroy, Françoise Bradfer, Gérard Engrand, Daniel Treiber, Guy Rumé, Frédéric Yvan, Joëlle Prugnaud, Philippe Boudon, Caroline Maniaque, Christian Hauer, Jean Attali, Joëlle Caullier, Séverine Bridoux, Frank Vermandel, Antonia Soulez, Jean-Claude Vigato, et Marie-Céline Masson.

Summary:
''Totems'' brings together ten texts by architect, historian, and critic Irénée Scalbert. Written between 2001 and 2025, they reflect nearly three decades of critical engagement with architecture and its cultural contexts. Ranging in length and register—from concise meditations to extended analytical essays—the collection captures the evolution of Scalbert’s thinking as a critic, teacher, and participant in architectural discourse. Organized thematically into sections on buildings, cities, and the environment, ''Totems'' traces a loosely autobiographical arc. Earlier pieces echo Scalbert’s formative years in London during a period of architectural ferment are marked by the work of James Stirling and Norman Foster, influential figures from Europe such as Aldo Rossi, as well as his close association with a generation of contemporaries including Peter St John (Caruso St John Architects), and Tom Emerson and Stephanie Macdonald (6a architects). Later texts expand outward, both geographically and conceptually, as Scalbert brings a speculative and at times personal lens to questions of urbanism, nature, and meaning in contemporary architecture.

Summary:
Conceptions of modernity in architecture are often expressed in the idea of the zeitgeist, or “spirit of the age,” an attitude toward architectural form that is embedded in a belief in progressive time. 'Lateness' explores how architecture can work against these linear currents in startling and compelling ways. In this incisive book, internationally renowned architect(...)

Summary:
Conceptions of modernity in architecture are often expressed in the idea of the zeitgeist, or “spirit of the age,” an attitude toward architectural form that is embedded in a belief in progressive time. 'Lateness' explores how architecture can work against these linear currents in startling and compelling ways. In this incisive book, internationally renowned architect Peter Eisenman, with Elisa Iturbe, proposes a different perspective on form and time in architecture, one that circumvents the temporal constraints on style that require it to be “of the times”—lateness. He focuses on three twentieth-century architects who exhibited the qualities of lateness in their designs: Adolf Loos, Aldo Rossi, and John Hejduk. Drawing on the critical theory of Theodor Adorno and his study of Beethoven’s final works, Eisenman shows how the architecture of these canonical figures was temporally out of sync with conventions and expectations, and how lateness can serve as a form of release from the restraints of the moment.
