Simon Sadler searches for the Situationist City among the detritus of tracts, manifestos, and works of art that the Situationist International left behind. From 1957 to 1972 the artistic and political movement known as the Situationist International (SI) worked aggressively to subvert the conservative ideology of the Western world. The movement's broadside attack on "establishment" institutions and values left its mark upon the libertarian left, the counterculture, the revolutionary events of 1968, and more recent phenomena from punk to postmodernism. But over time it tended to obscure Situationism's own founding principles. In this book, Simon Sadler investigates the artistic, architectural, and cultural theories that were once the foundations of Situationist thought, particularly as they applied to the form of the modern city. According to the Situationists, the benign professionalism of architecture and design had led to a sterilization of the world that threatened to wipe out any sense of spontaneity or playfulness. The Situationists hankered after the "pioneer spirit" of the modernist period, when new ideas, such as those of Marx, Freud, and Nietzsche, still felt fresh and vital. By the late fifties, movements such as British and American Pop Art and French Nouveau Ralisme had become intensely interested in everyday life, space, and mass culture. The SI aimed to convert this interest into a revolution—at the level of the city itself. Their principle for the reorganization of cities was simple and seductive: let the citizens themselves decide what spaces and architecture they want to live in and how they wish to live in them. This would instantly undermine the powers of state, bureaucracy, capital, and imperialism, thereby revolutionizing people's everyday lives. Simon Sadler searches for the Situationist City among the detritus of tracts, manifestos, and works of art that the SI left behind. The book is divided into three parts. The first, "The Naked City," outlines the Situationist critique of the urban environment as it then existed. The second, "Formulary for a New Urbanism," examines Situationist principles for the city and for city living. The third, "A New Babylon," describes actual designs proposed for a Situationist City.

Nationalism was ubiquitous in nineteenth-century Europe. Yet, we know little about what the nation meant to ordinary people. In this book, both renowned historians and younger scholars try to answer this question. This book will appeal to specialists in the field but also offers helpful reading for any college and university course on nationalism.

Last year marked the fiftieth anniversary of the inauguration of Brazil's capital Brasilia. Designed by architects Lúcio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer, it has since become one of the most famous and widely studied urban planning projects. Niemeyer's cathedral, Catedral Metropolitana Nossa Senhora Aparecida; his building for the national parliament, the Congresso Nacional; and the city's 707-foot television tower have become icons of twentieth-century architecture. The entire city, marked by its cross-shaped layout and vast open spaces, was named a UNESO World Heritage site in 1987. René Burri, an internationally celebrated Swiss-born photographer and member of the legendary Magnum agency, visited the city for the first time on a long journey around South America in 1958, when most of Brasilia was a vast building site. He returned many times over more than thirty years, documenting the growth and development of this urban utopia. Besides documenting the buildings in various stages of completion, Burri took portraits of Niemeyer and his workers and photographed Brasilia's street scenes and people: workers with their tools, machinery and building materials, pedestrians on the newly finished streets and squares, and aerial views from the air of the city's first slums abutting brand-new blocks of residential buildings. His images capture the strong sense of a new era and a vibrant atmosphere of hard work and strain; they reflect the huge dimensions of the landscape and the great scale of this project and its ambition to design and build a new capital--and fill it with life. Complete with an essay by eminent architect and scholar of architectural history Arthur Rüegg, René Burri. Brasilia marks the city's fiftieth anniversary and allows readers to look at an extraordinary city through the eyes of an exceptional photographer.

Let us revive the true sense of fine arts: enchantment! In the conceptualised, commercialised, artificial approach to fine arts, we forgot its authentic experiential sense. It lies at the imaginative heart of all arts there to be retrieved by the creative recipient as the very 'truth of it all'.

Découvrez l'existence exceptionelle du fondateur du scoutisme ! Officier de la cavalerie aux Indes, chasseur en Afrique, espion en Russie et dans les Balkans, vainqueur des Zoulous, dresseur de chevaux et champion de polo, Robert Baden-Powell fut, mieux que tout autre, le « maître de l’aventure ». « J’ai eu le bonheur de vivre heureux et je souhaite à chacun de pouvoir en dire autant. » Ce souhait, Baden-Powell ne s’est pas contenté de le formuler. Il a donné aux jeunes du monde entier la possibilité de le réaliser. Le scoutisme n’est que l’application pour tous des secrets qui lui ont permis de mener une vie passionnante. Et pour bien comprendre les ressorts de cette grande organisation mondiale, il faut remonter à la source, à l’histoire de son fondateur, à l’histoire d’un garçon curieux, inventif. Cet ouvrage retrace la piste du scoutisme et, à tous les enfants du monde entier, ouvre la porte à la plus grande des aventures : celle de la vie. EXTRAIT Une voix sonore interpella le jeune homme niché dans les agrès : —Eh, là-haut ! Le guetteur baissa la tête : —Serait-ce à moi, monsieur, que vous adressez la parole ? —Évidemment, jeune homme. Ce n’est pas aux mouettes ! Descendez vite. J’ai une excellente nouvelle à vous annoncer. Et le possesseur de la voix, un gros homme en redingote, agitait les pages d’un journal, impatiemment. Robert Baden-Powell se laissa glisser le long du mât. Déjà, le Dr Riddel, donnant le plein d’une voix célèbre pour son ampleur, déclarait, le nez dans ses feuilles : Nouvelles militaires. Résultats des examens pour emplois spéciaux à l’armée : Cavalerie : second, Robert Baden-Powell. Infanterie : cinquième, Robert Baden-Powell. Nomination : sous-lieutenant, Robert Baden-Powell. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Historien de formation, Robert Bastin s'est longtemps épanoui dans le scoutisme, en tant qu'animé, mais également d'animateur. Il mène de longues recherches afin d'écrire, pour d'autres jeunes scouts, la biographie de leur fondateur.

Italian novelist, poet, and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini was brutally killed in Rome in 1975, a macabre end to a career that often explored humanity’s capacity for violence and cruelty. Along with the mystery of his murderer’s identity, Pasolini left behind a controversial but acclaimed oeuvre as well as a final quartet of beguiling projects that signaled a radical change in his aesthetics and view of reality. The Resurrection of the Body is an original and compelling interpretation of these final works: the screenplay Saint Paul, the scenario for Porn-Theo-Colossal, the immense and unfinished novel Petrolio, and his notorious final film, Salò or the 120 Days of Sodom, a disturbing adaptation of the writings of the Marquis de Sade. Together these works, Armando Maggi contends, reveal Pasolini’s obsession with sodomy and its role within his apocalyptic view of Western society. One of the first studies to explore the ramifications of Pasolini’s homosexuality, The Resurrection of the Body also breaks new ground by putting his work into fruitful conversation with an array of other thinkers such as Freud, Strindberg, Swift, Henri Michaux, and Norman O. Brown.
