Résumé:
The roads within America's national park system reveal a wide range of technological, aesthetic, and philosophical concerns. Their design and construction epitomize the central challenge of national park management: how to balance environmental protection with public access. The Historic American Engineering Record (HAER), a division of the National Park Service, has spent more than a dozen years documenting the history of this vital aspect of the national park experience. America's National Park Roads and Parkways brings together 331 measured and interpretive drawings commissioned by HAER to illustrate the physical characteristics, design strategies, construction practices, and visitor experiences of roads in national parks from Acadia to Zion and parkways from the Blue Ridge to the Natchez Trace. Also included are non–Park Service projects that utilized similar design strategies, including the Bronx River Parkway and the Columbia River Highway. The book documents thirty-one projects, explaining how roads shape visitor perceptions, highlighting key characteristics of individual park road systems, and connecting their design and construction to the broader history of American engineering and landscape architecture. More than a documentary record of historic design and construction practices, this book has practical applications for engineers, landscape architects, and cultural resource specialists in guiding design decisions, interpreting historic sites, and informing contemporary debates on preservation and environmental protection.

L'artiste américain joseph Cornell (1903 1972) ne savait ni dessiner, ni sculpter.

Résumé:
L'artiste américain joseph Cornell (1903 1972) ne savait ni dessiner, ni sculpter. Rêveur appliqué et solitaire, il écumait les brocantes et les antiquaires de Manhattan en quête de trouvailles à ramener au sous-sol de sa maison d'enfance à Utopia Parkway, où il vivait avec son frère invalide, Robert. Il y remplissait ses boîtes d'ombre d'objets trouvés, fabriquait des courts métrages à partir de chutes de films de l'âge d'or d'Hollywood et réalisait des collages hantés par l'image de femmes inconnues. Charles Simic, qui a arpenté les mêmes rues que Cornell, nous donne ici un livre de marcheur, Baedeker éclaté de cette ville réelle irréelle où Cornell a passé sa vie, à la frontière d'Onirie et d'Amérique.

Résumé:
“When walking, or perhaps more rarely when sauntering on horseback, one is in direct contact with surroundings, reifying a connection to natural rhythms. To forget the season, soil, and sky is to deny existence.” So writes landscape architect Roger G. Courtenay in this publication. Whether walking the Piedmont of Virginia, canoeing the French Broad River near Asheville, North Carolina, driving along the Blue Ridge Parkway, or exploring Thomas Jefferson’s Academical Village, Courtenay turns to his local countryside for inspiration. In this book the author delves into the nuances of his craft, inviting us to share his encounters with a myriad of landscapes and revealing how he then interprets these experiences in his sketches.
