Résumé:
From David Raponi's introduction: 'HOV was born as an answer to the need of emersion from clandestineness of some personal passions of mine, first of all the love for sculpture amd then for quantum physics, mathematics and cognitive biology. These discipline are sometimes close to architecture, but they are certainly as far from professional practice as from research activities. Nevertheless this discrepancy is not a real one since hypothesis such as Maturana's multi-versus and Bohm's holographic imagery are definitely more courageous, daring and creative than most of modern literature or art.

Qu'est-ce qu'un lieu ? Un lieu, c'est là où l'on se pose et se repose, se refait. Un répit dans un voyage ou après un trajet. Autour de ce motif, nous est ici proposé un voyage éthno-poétique. Des lieux d'enfance de l'auteur, de ses terrains d'enquête à ceux, fictifs, d'un arpenteurs, des Pyrénées à la Lozère, d'Ardèche en Creuse, reliés entre eux par le tracé improbable(...)

Qu'est-ce qu'un lieu ? Un lieu, c'est là où l'on se pose et se repose, se refait. Un répit dans un voyage ou après un trajet. Autour de ce motif, nous est ici proposé un voyage éthno-poétique. Des lieux d'enfance de l'auteur, de ses terrains d'enquête à ceux, fictifs, d'un arpenteurs, des Pyrénées à la Lozère, d'Ardèche en Creuse, reliés entre eux par le tracé improbable de petites lignes de chemin de fer, se dessine au fil des pages un éloge des lieux les plus modestes, ou encore mal-aimés. Une famille d'espaces, où chacun pourra se reconnaître. Ces brefs récits nous offrent un autre regard sur les territoires et sur les paysages. Peut-être une nouvelle façon de voyager.

Résumé:
The practice of comparison is implicit in every act of imagining, representing, and studying urban experience. "Urban enigmas" contributes to recent interdisciplinary interest in cities by introducing comparison as a key methodology for urban cultural analysis. Contributors, part of the collaborative research project "The Culture of Cities : Montreal, Toronto, Dublin, and Berlin", address theoretical and methodological aspects of comparison, while case-studies examine the mutually constituted identities of Montreal and Toronto through examples of travel writing, public art, film festivals, theatrical performances, diasporic communities, ethnic festivals, and urban media. Comparison is shown to be not only something performed by experts but a deeply embedded, everyday social practice that contributes to the mutable identities of cities. "Urban enigmas" demonstrates that the accumulation of urban actions, encounters, experiences, and relationships create distinctive patterns that make it possible to recognize the particularity of cities. Contributors include Alan Blum (York), Kieran Bonner (St. Jerome's), Jenny Burman (McGill), Jean-François Côté (Université du Québec à Montréal), Michael Darroch (York), Nicholas DeMaria Harney (Western Australia), Kevin Dowler (York & Toronto), Dipti Gupta (Dawson College), Janine Marchessault (York), Jean-François Morissette (Université du Québec à Montréal), and Greg Nielsen (Concordia).

Résumé:
Learning from Las Vegas, originally published by the MIT Press in 1972, was one of the most influential and controversial architectural books of its era. Thirty-five years later, it remains a perennial bestseller and a definitive theoretical text. Its authors--architects Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Steven Izenour--famously used the Las Vegas Strip to argue the virtues of the "ordinary and ugly" above the "heroic and original" qualities of architectural modernism. Learning from Las Vegas not only moved architecture to the center of cultural debates, it changed our ideas about what architecture was and could be.

Résumé:
From the fourteenth century on, the artifacts of Western visual culture became increasingly violent. Destroyed faces, dissolved human shapes, devilish doppelgängers of the sacred: violence made real people nameless exemplars of formless, hideous horror. In Defaced, the historian Valentin Groebner provides a highly sophisticated historical, cultural, and political model for understanding how late-medieval images and narratives of “indescribable” violence functioned.
