In a period marked by the Spatial Turn, time is not the main category of analysis any longer. Space is. It is now considered as a central metaphor and topos in literature, and literary criticism has seized space as a new tool. Similarly, literature turns out to be an ideal field for geography. This book examines the cross-fertilization of geography and literature as disciplines, languages and methodologies. In the past two decades, several methods of analysis focusing on the relationship and interconnectedness between literature and geography have flourished. Literary cartography, literary geography and geocriticism (Westphal, 2007, and Tally, 2011) have their specificities, but they all agr...
Brasilía a incarné la ville moderne avant-gardiste et idéale des années 1950. Ce projet utopique, confié à un urbaniste, Lucio Costa, et un architecte, Oscar Niemeyer, résiste au temps car, près d’un demi-siècle après sa fondation, la ville jouit toujours d’une aura puissante. L’Unesco a classé le site patrimoine mondial de l’humanité en 1987 mais Brasilía est aujourd’hui au cœur d’une agglomération de trois millions d’habitants d’une incroyable vitalité. Elle surprend par sa composition spatiale distendue, dispersée et répétitive, sa communication urbaine essentiellement automobile et une apparente et inquiétante anomie sociale. Mais où donc et sous quelle forme les populations de Brasilía font-elles aujourd’hui société ? Comment d’un projet de ville délimitée et finie a-t-on pu aboutir à une telle urbanisation diffuse et ségréguée de l’environnement régional ? Les auteurs de cet ouvrage proposent une analyse de cette expérience urbanistique et sociale unique, et s’interrogent sur le sens du développement local et le dilemme urbain du XXIe siècle entre libéralisme inégalitaire et projet social régulateur.
