In an accessible but scientifically aware manner, architect and author Klaske Havik (born 1975) argues that literary authors most effectively portray the concept of lived and experienced space, evoking memories and imaginations in their readers. Havik offers new methods for "reading" and "writing" places, from the architectural to the urban, by engaging with three particular techniques of literature: description, transcription and prescription.

Summary:
Depuis quelques années, les sciences humaines ont restitué aux sujets non humains leur rôle dans le déroulement de l'histoire du monde. Explosions volcaniques, épisodes de sécheresse, épidémies sont autant de causes naturelles qui expliquent, pour une grande part, les transformations de nos sociétés. Qu'en est-il en littérature ?

Summary:
Depuis quelques années, les sciences humaines ont restitué aux sujets non humains leur rôle dans le déroulement de l'histoire du monde. Explosions volcaniques, épisodes de sécheresse, épidémies sont autant de causes naturelles qui expliquent, pour une grande part, les transformations de nos sociétés. Qu'en est-il en littérature ? Ne serait-il pas temps qu'un rôle majeur dans le déroulement du récit soit attribué au monde naturel ?. Plutôt qu'un simple décor devant lequel se déploient les actions humaines, le climat devrait aujourd'hui être pleinement considéré comme l'un des acteurs principaux du roman, un personnage à part entière, suscitant tragédies et romances. C'est ce que l'on perçoit en germe dans les nouvelles inédites proposées par Aurélien Bellanger, Marie Darrieussecq, Célia Houdart, Annie Lulu, Marielle Macé, Yamen Manaï, Samy Manga, Ryoko Sekiguchi, Peter Stamm, Abdourahman Waberi qui ont été invités à imaginer le monde du réchauffement climatique, avec une hausse des températures de 4 degrés Celsius, celui de notre planète à l'horizon de 2100.
