Résumé:
When Richard Reynolds began planting flowers secretly at night outside his tower block in South London, he had no idea that he was part of a growing global movement committed to combating the forces of neglect, land shortage and apathy towards public spaces. But before long, his blog had attracted other guerrillas from around the world to share their experiences of the horticultural frontline, and is now a focal point for guerrilla gardeners everywhere, with over 4,000 people enlisted as recruits. "On Guerrilla Gardening" is Reynolds' lively, colourful treatise on why people illicitly cultivate land and how to do it yourself. From discreetly beautifying corners of Montreal to striving for green communal space in Berlin and sustainable food production in San Francisco, from Christmas trees on London roundabouts to the political agitations of landless workers in Brazil, Reynolds charts a battle that people worldwide are fighting on many different fronts. Along the way he unearths the movement's notable historic advances by seventeenth-century English radicals, a nineteenth-century American entrepreneur and public-spirited artists in 1970s New York. Reynolds has researched the subject with guerrilla gardeners from thirty different countries, and compiles their advice on what to grow where, how to cope with adverse environmental conditions, how to seed-bomb effectively, how to harness propaganda to win support and even how to handle anti-terror police. "On Guerrilla Gardening" informs, entertains and inspires. Packed with photographs, anecdotes and sound horticultural advice, it is an irresistible invitation to shoulder your shovel and join the revolution that is blooming in the world's shared spaces.

Les anciens comme Sartre, Lacan ou Canguilhem, étaient encore en pleine activité ; d'un peu plus jeunes, comme Althusser, déployaient leur œuvre, et toute une génération, les Deleuze, Foucault, Derrida, entrait dans l'arène. Tous ces maîtres, aujourd'hui, sont morts. La scène philosophique, largement peuplée d'imposteurs, est autrement composée, ne tirant sa consistance que de ceux, jeunes et moins jeunes, qui, les formulant à neuf dans leur propre langue, savent être fidèles aux questions qui nous animèrent il y a quarante ans. Je crois juste de rassembler les analyses et hommages qu'au long des années, quand ils disparaissaient, j'ai consacrés à ceux à qui je dois la signification, toujours inhumaine autant que noble et combattante, du mot "philosophie". Je n'ai pas toujours eu avec ces contemporains capitaux des rapports simples et sereins : la philosophie, comme le dit Kant, est un champ de bataille. Mais, considérant aujourd'hui les innombrables "philosophes" médiatiques, je puis dire que j'aime tous ceux dont je parle dans ce livre. Oui, je les aime tous». -Alain Badiou.

La ville est notre horizon commun. En France, par exemple, quatre-vingts pour cent de la population vivent ou travaillent dans un territoire urbain. Mais, plus essentiel encore, la ville concentre les enjeux sociaux, économiques, politiques... ainsi que les interactions et les interventions volontaires d'une multiplicité d'acteurs qui la transforment à un rythme soutenu, et avec elle la société dans son ensemble. Au point que les mots qui désignent la ville sous les rapports les plus divers, ne servent pas seulement à parler d'elle, ils la modifient - ils la font-, jour après jour, en informant notre pensée. Dans ce livre, Catherine Bernié-Boissard s'attache à définir quelques-uns des mots les plus employés pour commenter le fait urbain, à retracer leur histoire, à en restituer la pluralité de sens, à mettre au jour les intentions qui ont présidé à leur création ou à leur utilisation à de nouvelles fins. Au fil des trente articles qui composent l'ouvrage le lecteur découvrira sans aucun doute nombre de perspectives nouvelles sur un objet si familier que nous avons souvent peine à l'appréhender dans toute son ampleur et toute sa complexité.

Geographers are interested in political formations (and geography, as a discipline, is increasingly non-visual). Art historians have written extensively on landscape, but there have not been any recent synthetic attemps or theoretical overviews. At the same time, painters, and other artists often feel they 'possess' the landscape of the region in which they live; that ownership takes place at a non-verbal level, and seems incommensurate with the discourses of art history or geography. Landscape Theory, volume 6 in The Art Seminar series, is the first book to bring together different disciplines and practices, in order to understand how best to conceptualize landscape in art.

Résumé:
In this fresh and authoritative account John Macarthur presents the eighteenth century idea of the picturesque – when it was a risky term concerned with a refined taste for everyday things, such as the hovels of the labouring poor in the light of its reception and effects in modern culture. In a series of linked essays Macarthur shows: what the concept of picture does in the picturesque and how this relates to modern theories of the image how the distaste that might be felt today at the sentimentality of the picturesque was already at play in the eighteenth century how visual values such as ‘irregularity’ become the basis of modern architectural planning; how the concept of appropriating a view moves from landscape design into urban design why movement is fundamental to picturing the stillness of buildings, cities and landscapes. Drawing on examples from architecture, art and broader culture, John Macarthur's account of this key topic in cultural history, makes engaging reading for all those studying architecture, art history, cultural history or visual studies.

Rather than focusing purely on public spaces—such as streets, cafés, gardens, or department stores—or on the domestic sphere, the book investigates those spaces and practices that engage both the urban and the domestic, the public and the private. The legal, political and administrative frameworks of urban life are seen as constituting private individuals’ sense of self, in a wide range of European and world cities from Amsterdam and Barcelona to London and Chicago.
