Résumé:
Set in a beautiful tree-sided valley in England’s North York moors, the ruins of 800-year-old Rievaulx Abbey evoke a medieval world of Cistercian monks living and working, worshipping and seeking spiritual growth. This book provides an unprecedented account of Rievaulx, its 400 years as a monastery and its next 400 years, forsaken and deteriorating. Peter Fergusson and Stuart Harrison present the first comprehensive archaeological and architectural analysis of Rievaulx and the other buildings within its 92-acre walled precinct. They include extensive reconstruction drawings that bring to life the abbey and its infirmary, service buildings, water meadows, mills, and workshops. The authors describe Rievaulx’s remarkable architectural development from its early decades as home to a community of 650 men to its desertion after Henry VIII's Suppression. Fergusson and Harrison consider the buildings' context, architectural significance, iconography, and social and economic influences. Then, tracing the suppression of the monastery and changing perceptions of the ruin from the sixteenth through the twentieth centuries, the authors complete their portrait of the spectacular abbey and its meanings across time.

L'étude originale et scientifique de Pédro Navascuès Palacio, professeur à l'Ecole Supérieure d'Architecture de Madrid et membre de la Real Academia de Bellas Artes, nous donne à découvrir le paysage monastique espagnol et ses plus belles pages architecturales. l'esthétique et à la chronologie, l'auteur a préféré une approche historique par ordres religieux, qui met en valeur les spécificités de chaque ordre : Bénédictins, Franciscains, Cisterciens, Dominicains, Hiéronymites, Prémontrés, Chartreux, chacun donna lieu à l'édification de monastères parcourus ici par l'oeil du photographe Domi Mora. Ces vingt monographies mettent également en valeur la diversité des paysages espagnols : immensité de la montagne qui domine San Juan de la Peña, vignobles qui enserrent Santa Maria de Poblet, aridité des collines de Santa Maria de El Parral ou champs d'oliviers qui entourent le village où trône Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe.

Résumé:
Across five centuries of Russian history, Russian leaders have used architecture to project unity, identity, and power. Church architecture has inspired national cohesion and justified political control while representing the claims of religion in brick, wood, and stone. The architectural vocabulary of the Soviet state celebrated industrialization, mechanization, and communal life. Buildings and landscapes have expressed utopian urges as well as lofty spiritual goals. Country houses and memorials have encoded their own messages. In Architectures of Russian Identity, James Cracraft and Daniel Rowland gather a group of authors from a wide variety of backgrounds—including history and architectural history, linguistics, literary studies, geography, and political science—to survey the political and symbolic meanings of many different kinds of structures. Fourteen heavily illustrated chapters demonstrate the remarkable fertility of the theme of architecture, broadly defined, for a range of fields dealing with Russia and its surrounding territories. The authors engage key terms in contemporary historiography—identity, nationality, visual culture—and assess the applications of each in Russian contexts.
