Summary:
In Empire of the Senses the senses are considered as cultural systems. Bringing together classic pieces by key thinkers--from Marshall McLuhan and Alain Corbin to Susan Stewart and Oliver Sacks--as well as newly commissioned articles, this path-breaking book provides a comprehensive overview of the "sensual revolution," where all manner of disciplines converge. Its aim is to enhance our understanding of the role of the senses in history and across cultures by overturning the hegemony of vision in contemporary theory and demonstrating that all senses play a role in mediating cultural experience. It asks provocative questions that most of us take for granted. Are there, for example, only five senses, or is this assumption a Western construct? This radical contribution to revisioning cultural studies will be essential reading for anyone hoping to understand the full complexity of how we experience our world.

Par la suite, les sœurs de la congrégation Notre-Dame-de-Montréal s’en sont portées acquéreurs et en ont fait une ferme qui leur a longtemps donné de quoi se nourrir. La vie des insulaires ne sera pas constamment un long fleuve tranquille, notamment à cause des inondations printanières. En 1956, un groupe d’hommes d’affaires rachète la propriété des religieuses. Commence alors une nouvelle vie pour cette île où s’affrontent promoteurs et résidants. La préservation du boisé sera à l’origine de bien des conflits.

Une cabane de pêcheurs, l'aménagement d'une halle de marché rural dans le cadre de la procédure des "Nouveaux commanditaires", une école, le hangar d'une ferme comtoise, une maison individuelle, des édifices mettant en œuvre les énergies renouvelables, dévoilent le processus d'une architecture radicale et conceptuelle attentive au lieu, au matériau, à la demande, au paysage, dépassant l'opposition entre local et universel. / This pubication is dedicated to the work of Adelfo Scaranello, an architect from Besançon, France, whose singular constructions are presented in their context : a fishing cabin, a covered farmer’s market, both included among the new commissions of the Fondation de France. Also included are a school, a barn, a residence, and examples of buildings employing natural energy sources. Each project reveals Scaranello’s conceptual process which is intrinsically related to site, materials, prerequisites, and landscape and which surpasses any notion of local versus international architecture.
