Lucien Hervé
Cet ouvrage est publié à l'occasion de l'exposition éponyme présentée conjointement au Jeu de Paume à Paris et au Jeu de Paume au Château de Tours, du 18 novembre 2017 au 27 mai 2018. Figure majeure de la photographie d'architecture, Lucien Hervé (1910-2007) est surtout célèbre pour sa collaboration avec Le Corbusier, bien qu'il ait oeuvré auprès d'autres illustres bâtisseurs du XXe siècle. Il suffit d'un détail à ce grand constructeur d'images pour évoquer l'ensemble, et du contraste entre ombre et lumière pour traduire l'espace. A travers la rigueur de ses cadrages, il n'a eu de cesse de jouer avec la géométrie, parfois jusqu'à l'abstraction. Lucien Hervé est aussi un homme d'un engagement social profond, cherchant en tout lieu la présence du "vivant". Cet ouvrage lui rend hommage en initiant un dialogue, comme il le faisait, entre l'ancien et le moderne, le traditionnel et le novateur, l'abstrait et l'humain.
Il fiume che voleva scrivere
Sotto il nome di Progresso, di Tecnica, abbiamo depauperato la Terra. Se i fiumi, le montagne, le foreste, gli oceani, i ghiacciai e le terre, dopo millenni di soprusi, potessero esprimersi, che parole userebbero? Nella rivendicazione dei loro diritti fondamentali, gli elementi della natura troverebbero ascolto presso quei «soggetti» umani, unici responsabili di quella sistematica prevaricazione? Questo è un libro-percorso, con un fine preciso: pensare una «rivolta giuridica della Terra», a partire dai nostri luoghi qui in Europa, per dare strumenti a chi in futuro vorrà impegnarsi nella trasformazione di un certo modo di scrivere le leggi. Per attribuire, dunque, lo statuto di persona...
Les Châteaux de la Loire
Chenonceau, Chambord, Chinon, Amboise, Blois, Ussé, Langeais... Des architectures formidables, du mobilier splendide, des toiles et des tapisseries uniques ne sont pas, loin s’en faut, le seul intérêt des châteaux de la Loire. Dans chacun d’entre eux se sont déroulés tant de faits historiques ! Tant de rois, de reines, de grands personnages s’y sont croisés, y ont comploté, s’y sont aimés, qu’il fallait bien une visite plus que privée pour vous en faire profiter.
Lehrmedien der Kunstgeschichte
Die kunsthistorische Forschung und Lehre ist aufs Engste mit der Mediengeschichte verzahnt. Durch die Digitalisierung ergeben sich hier neue Perspektiven. Der Band wirft vor diesem Hintergrund einen differenzierten Blick auf die Vielfalt kunsthistorischer Lehrmedien, indem er nach der Geschichte, den Prämissen, aber auch den Grenzen kunsthistorischer Medienpraxis fragt. Fallstudien widmen sich den unterschiedlichen Medien und ihrer Verwendung für die Wissensproduktion innerhalb der Kunstgeschichte. Beiträge u.a. von Alexandra Axtmann, Peter Bell, Matthias Bruhn, Bernd Carqué, Ortwin Dally, Ute Dercks, Philipp Goldbach, Erkki Huhtamo, Joseph Imorde, Rossella Monaco, Hubert Locher, Maria Männig, Susanne Müller-Bechtel, Robert S. Nelson, Franziska Scheuer, Barbara Schrödl, Andreas Zeising.

Prunus
The book of “Prunus” contains chapters on breeding, germplasm, fruit tree physiology, and production of Prunus species, written by authors from different parts of the world. Prunus is one of the most important fruit genera widely spread according to the various climatic and soil conditions. This wide adaptability of the Prunus genus gives an opportunity for it to be grown in many parts of the world. In modern taxonomy, subgenera of Prunussuch as Amygdalus, Cerasus, Laurocerasus, Lithocerasus, Padus and Prunus include many species among which Prunus persica L., Prunus domestica L., Prunus armeniaca L., Prunus avium L. are the main ones. Briefly, this book is on Prunus species, which is one of the main fruit and nursery plants grown in the world.
Contributory Negligence
Accidents often occur not only through the fault of the wrongdoer but also partly through the conduct of the injured party. This contributory conduct of the injured party and its consequences for the delictual liability of the wrongdoer have been central issues in the study of private law for centuries. In Contributory Negligence. A Historical and Comparative Study Van Dongen presents a detailed study of how from Antiquity to today the negligent behaviour of the injured party has influenced claims for damages based on delictual liability and how it evolved into the modern concept of contributory negligence. His research comprises a comparative legal study of the main current developments concerning the concept of contributory negligence in France, Germany and the Netherlands.
Kierkegaard, Mimesis, and Modernity
This book challenges the widespread view of Kierkegaard’s idiosyncratic and predominantly religious position on mimesis. Taking mimesis as a crucial conceptual point of reference in reading Kierkegaard, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the relation between aesthetics and religion in his thought. Kaftanski shows how Kierkegaard's dialectical-existential reading of mimesis interlaces aesthetic and religious themes, including the familiar core concepts of imitation, repetition, and admiration as well as the newly arisen notions of affectivity, contagion, and crowd behavior. Kierkegaard’s enduring relevance to the malaises of our own day is firmly established by his classic concer...
