Summary:
Describing the silliness and 'feminine fatuity' of many popular books by lady novelists, George Eliot perfectly skewers the formulaic yet bestselling works that dominated her time, with their loveably flawed heroines. She also examines the great women writers of France and their enrichment of the culture, and the varying qualities of literary translations.

Summary:
Quoi qu’en disent les adeptes du développement durable, les substituts aux énergies fossiles abondantes et bon marché n’existent pas. Aucune source d’énergie alternative ne pourra offrir un rendement aussi élevé que celui des énergies fossiles. Puisqu’ils refusent d’intégrer cette réalité, les modèles économiques dominants ne peuvent rendre compte de l’après-pétrole, et les habitants des sociétés industrielles sont incapables se préparer aux profondes mutations qui les attendent. Plongeant aux fondements de la pensée économique depuis Adam Smith, La fin de l’abondance montre que l’actuelle orthodoxie néoclassique fait fausse route en traitant la Terre et ses ressources comme des facteurs de production inépuisables, ce qu’elles ne sont pas.

Entre 1926 et 1946, Le Corbusier échange plus de 700 lettres avec ses proches. Ces courriers, pour beaucoup inédits, dressent son portrait au jour le jour tandis qu'il voyage sans cesse, de Moscou à Rio, d'Alger à New York. C'est aussi durant cette période qu'il réalise la Villa Savoye, le Pavillon suisse, l'immeuble Molitor, l'Unité d'Habitation de Marseille. A l'âge de(...)

A l'âge de la maturité, Le Corbusier endosse la stature de l'architecte international et travaille sans relâche à parfaire ses théories. Il engage les projets majeurs de son existence, qui sont autant de manifestes de l'architecture moderne. Autant d'oeuvres dont on trouve ici la genèse.

"The first built project and final creative work of artist and architect Lebbeus Woods (1940-2012), the Light Pavilion is transcendent architecture, a project that exemplifies the preoccupations of a consummate draftsman, thinker, and educator. Nestled within a mixed-use complex in Chengdu, China, this daring construction is an emancipated drawing, a light and shadow machine, a chromatic calendar, a fugue of steel, a dance of space and form. The pavilion's dynamic geometry, perspective, and sequence of spaces reframe perceptions of architecture and urbanism.
