Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1980s, art photographers from metropolitan France have been training their lenses on ordinary landscapes throughout the country they call home. The Topographic Imaginary is the first book to study this important and flourishing trend. It examines work by artists who meld documentary and creative modes to attune viewers to places that mainstream culture tends to tune out, but which, as Ari J. Blatt argues, are in fact more meaningful than they initially appear. From views of building sites in Paris, peri-urban edgelands, or a tangle of trees in a forest, to those that ponder the play of light and shadow on roadside fields in Normandy or the tacky colors painted on dated village shopfronts, images that signal the emergence of a “topographic turn” in contemporary French photography constitute new ways of seeing and sensing France’s diverse national territory. As Blatt suggests, they also represent a visual laboratory through which to investigate how landscape “scapes” our understanding of French culture. In their efforts to reimagine a more traditional and time-worn idea of France’s shared common space, topographic photographs animate conversations about capital and class; cities and their peripheries; the politics and impact of development; migration and borders; memory, history, and affect; empire and postcolonialism; national identity; and the changing environment. The Topographic Imaginary thus reveals how attending to place in pictures provides valuable insight into the disposition of a nation in flux.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paris and the Cliché of History traces the changing historical meanings of photographs of this city during a century marked by urban renovation, war, occupation, liberation, and visual documentation. Challenging the idea that photographs merely document the past, it calls for new methods of reading photos as material objects with histories of their own and sheds insight on the capital's reduction to an image in the twentieth century.

Book Synopsis Urban Poetics in the French Renaissance by : Elisabeth Hodges
Download or read book Urban Poetics in the French Renaissance written by Elisabeth Hodges and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through a construct she calls urban poetics, Elisabeth Hodges draws out the relationship between the city and the self in early modern French literature and culture, showing the impact of the city in human history and cultural production to be so profound that it cannot be extricated from what we know by the name of subjectivity. Charting a course between cartography, literary studies, and cultural history, this study opens new vistas on some of the period's defining problems.

Book Synopsis The Routledge Companion to Spatial History by : Ian Gregory
Download or read book The Routledge Companion to Spatial History written by Ian Gregory and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 775 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Spatial History explores the full range of ways in which GIS can be used to study the past, considering key questions such as what types of new knowledge can be developed solely as a consequence of using GIS and how effective GIS can be for different types of research. Global in scope and covering a broad range of subjects, the chapters in this volume discuss ways of turning sources into a GIS database, methods of analysing these databases, methods of visualising the results of the analyses, and approaches to interpreting analyses and visualisations. Chapter authors draw from a diverse collection of case studies from around the world, covering topics from state power in imperial China to the urban property market in nineteenth-century Rio de Janeiro, health and society in twentieth-century Britain and the demographic impact of the Second Battle of Ypres in 1915. Critically evaluating both the strengths and limitations of GIS and illustrated with over two hundred maps and figures, this volume is an essential resource for all students and scholars interested in the use of GIS and spatial analysis as a method of historical research.
Book Synopsis Paris in the Cinema by : Alastair Phillips
Download or read book Paris in the Cinema written by Alastair Phillips and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Paris in the Cinema' offers a new approach to the representation of Paris on screen. Bringing together a wide range of renowned French and Anglophone specialists in film, television, history, architecture and literature, the volume introduces, challenges and extends ideas about the city as the locus of screen modernity. Through a range of concrete and historically-specific case studies, ranging from particular districts such as Saint-Germain-des-Pres and les banlieues (the suburbs) in French cinema, to iconic figures such as the detective Maigret and the lovers, and from locations such as the hotel, the building site and the Eiffel Tower to filmmakers such as Agnes Varda and Jean-Pierre Jeunet, this unique text demonstrates how the cinematic city of Paris now constitutes a major archive of French cultural history and memory.
