It is a must read for India freaks and serious architects everywhere, the Second Edition of India's only architectural book ever to rank in the Top Ten Best Selling Non-fiction Books, entitled Letters to a Young Architect, is now appearing with one hundred and thirty-two colour, and black and white, illustrations. An all inclusive Index makes it easy for readers to locate people, places and ideas they wish to study. The author, Christopher Charles Benninger, is respected as one of India's leading architectural theorists and practitioners. He has won the Great Master's Award, the Architect of the Decade Award, the Indian Institute of Architects Award, the American Institute of Architects/Architectural Record/Business Week Award and many more. This book was awarded the Best Architectural Book of 2012 by Archidesign. The Chinese translation was released in January 2013 and the Gujarati version in November 2013. The book's narrative is a poetic and sensitive memoir of a stranger's adventures in Asia and his transformation in India. The book debates concerns about architectural theory, design and contemporary urban planning. Through the medium of written discourses and talks presented over the past decade, a lucid collection of essays emerge that testify the commonality of mankind's condition. This is a collection of autobiographical narratives and ideas, reflecting a journey of the spirit from America and Europe to India, and the philosophical considerations that matured from these experiences. His travels are not only stories of the dusty roads he traveled on, but also of the passions and emotions of those he met along the way. Letters to a Young Architect reflects on the role and direction of architecture in framing a new man and a new society in the new millennium. Benninger notes his encounters with gurus like Kevin Lynch, Charles and Ray Eames, Jose Luis Sert, Walter Gropius, Arnold Toynbee and Buckminster Fuller, and the manner in which their personal passion for humanity shaped the lives of others. Benninger is a strong believer in tradition, in gurus and in students and in a lineage of values, ideals, principles and of practices which have been matured from generation to generation. He is concerned with the education of architects; the nature of architecture itself; and the role of urbanism and planning in the creation of a new society. The role of Indian masters like Balkrishna Doshi, who guided him in his search, is a touching tribute to the Indian "Guru-Shishya" tradition. Christopher Benninger prepared the Capital Plan for Thimphu, Bhutan; for six cities in Sri Lanka and many towns and cities across Bhutan, India, and Sri Lanka. His well known architectural works include the Suzlon One Earth, the United World College of India, the Samundra Institute of Maritime Studies, the Indian Institute of Management at Kolkata, the Centre for Development Studies and Activities in Pune and the Kirloskar Institute of Advanced management Studies in Pune. He founded the School of Planning at CEPT University in Ahmedabad, India after a stint teaching at the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University where he studied architecture.
Book Synopsis New Letters to a Young Poet by : Joan Margarit
Download or read book New Letters to a Young Poet written by Joan Margarit and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these intimate pages, award-winning Catalan poet Joan Margarit offers a passionate defense of poetry and of the intelligible poem--the well-made text that can provide refuge, wisdom, and consolation. Inspired by Rilke's classic Letters to a Young Poet, this slender volume explores poetry as vocation, obsession, and partnership between writer and reader, a "road toward inner growth." For Margarit, poetry promises "a clarity that allows us mysteriously to live without the need to forget." This is essential reading for poets young and old, writers, and readers seeking insights into the creative process and "the way both poet and reader can find their own way to face solitude."
Book Synopsis The Letters of The Younger Pliny by : the younger Pliny
Download or read book The Letters of The Younger Pliny written by the younger Pliny and published by Lebooks Editora. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Letters of Pliny the Younger, also known as the Epistles of Pliny the Younger, have been studied for centuries, as they offer a unique and intimate glimpse into the daily life of Romans in the 1st century AD. Through his letters, the Roman writer and lawyer Pliny the Younger (whose full name was Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus) discusses philosophical and moral issues; but he also talks about everyday matters and topics related to his administrative duties. One of these letters, Letter 16 from Book VI, addressed to Tacitus, holds unparalleled historical value. In it, Pliny describes the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79, which destroyed the city of Pompeii. Many scholars claim that with his letters, Pliny invented a new literary genre: the letter written not only to establish pleasant communication with peers but also to publish it later. Pliny compiled copies of every letter he wrote throughout his life and published those he considered the best in twelve books. This edition presents selected letters chosen for their various characteristics and covering several books, focusing mainly on Books I, II, and III. The work is part of the famous collection: 501 Books You Must Read.

Book Synopsis Condemned Buildings by : Douglas Darden
Download or read book Condemned Buildings written by Douglas Darden and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Condemned Building is one of our most requested out-of-print books, so we've done a special limited edition reprint (only 750 copies) to meet the ongoing demand for this book. Not long after this book was published, the only one on the work of this gifted architect and delineator, Doug died of leukemia. Fans and friends, including legions of students, quickly bought up the remaining copies, and the difficulty of finding this book has undoubtedly only increased its appeal. Doug said that these projects were "the underbelly of canonical architectural principles and forms", and indeed many are dark, brooding, or sexual in nature: a "kamasutra with the negative." The book covers ten projects, in model, drawing, and "psychoanalytical" text. Douglas Darden taught at Harvard, Columbia, and most recently the University of Colorado at Denver. He was a Fellow of the American Academy in Rome. He is sorely missed, but we're happy to be able to offer his book once again.
