Download or read book Lausanne written by Francis Henry Gribble and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1909 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Lausanne is so near Geneva, its history, in historical times, has been widely different from that of the neighbouring town. Geneva enjoyed a modified independence from an early date, and became completely independent early in the sixteenth century. Lausanne, until nearly 300 years later, endured the domination, first of Savoy, and subsequently of Berne. The early history is obscure and full of vexed questions as well as unfamiliar names; but the central fact is that the Counts of Savoy-they were not promoted to be Dukes of Savoy until later-took possession of the Canton of Vaud, as well as of the Chablais and the lower Valais, after the death of the last of the Zaeringen, at the beginning of the thirteenth century. For the next 300 years they exercised overlordship, limited by the charters of the towns, and, in the case of Lausanne, by the jurisdiction of the Bishop-a complicated state of[2] things which the Swiss historical societies may be left to unravel.
Book Synopsis Villa urbaine / Urban Villa by : Benoît Jacques
Download or read book Villa urbaine / Urban Villa written by Benoît Jacques and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The typology of the townhouse originated in the late 19th century yet still represents a viable and attractive alternative to the detached single-family home. Several apartments spread across up to five floors are connected by a common staircase. In terms of urban planning, this type of structure makes it possible to reconcile dense urban settlement with open green spaces. Specially commissioned photographs and plan drawings of eight exemplary Lausanne townhouses illustrate texts written by international authors, who unfold the theme in its worldwide relevance. With contributions by Martine Jaquet Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani Luca Ortelli Jonathan Sergison Martin Steinmann Oswald Mathias Ungers Filip Dujardin (photographer)

Book Synopsis Lausanne : a city on three hills by : Jacques Straesslé
Download or read book Lausanne : a city on three hills written by Jacques Straesslé and published by Editions La Bibliothèque des Arts. This book was released on 2005 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les Romains l'avaient dénommée Lousonna. Ils l'avaient construite près des rivés du Léman. Plus tard, ses habitants partirent à la conquête des trois principales collines qui dominent le lac, et s'y établirent. En confiant la photographie à Jacques Straesslé, nous savions que ce Lausannois de souche saurait faire passer à travers ses prises de vue tout ce qu'il ressent pour sa ville. Une année consacrée pour partie à prendre Lausanne en photos, au fil des saisons, selon des articulations, des axes pré-établis avec l'éditeur et l'auteur des textes. Pierre Corajoud, lui, s'il n'est pas lausannois de par ses origines, est sans doute l'un des grands connaisseurs de la capitale vaudoise et de ses environs. Il se définit comme " un aventurier du proche, c'est-à-dire un piéton attentif. Très attentif. Auteur de deux ouvrages dédiés à la découverte à pied de Lausanne, notamment, il s'est spécialisé dans l'art des balades insolites dans lesquelles il entraîne des adeptes de plus en plus nombreux. C'est dire que ce livre va au-delà du simple album-photos.

Book Synopsis From Olympic Administration to Olympic Governance by : Emmanuel Bayle
Download or read book From Olympic Administration to Olympic Governance written by Emmanuel Bayle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lausanne, the Swiss city IOC (International Olympic Committee) President Juan Antonio Samaranch honored with the title "Olympic capital" in 1994, is now the administrative capital of world sport. The past century has presented Olympism with many challenges and that continues to be the case today; the issues may have changed, but they are no less numerous. Controversies over phony amateurism, the two Chinas and the creation of a modern Olympia have been resolved, only to be replaced by questions of governance, compliance, strategy, responsible management, the size of the Games, the scarcity of bids and new forms of doping and corruption. All these themes are examined in the articles that make up this book published about 100 years after the establishment of the IOC’s headquarters in Lausanne. This book was originally published as a special edition of Sport in Society.
Book Synopsis Dire l’interdit by : Raymond Mentzer
Download or read book Dire l’interdit written by Raymond Mentzer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-01-15 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Church discipline and the Reformed consistory, whether in Hungary, the Swiss world, France, The Netherlands or the British Isles, have become the subject of intense scholarly discussion. The fifteen essays gathered in this volume examine the process of censure and excommunication across Europe from the mid-sixteenth through the late eighteenth centuries. They reevaluate the relationship of women to ecclesiastical authority and explore the complex ways in which exclusion from the Lord’s Supper operated. Several contributors trace the decrease in excommunication over time; others underscore national differences in its nature and the surprising infrequency of application. Together, they offer a fresh, unanticipated and illuminating portrait of the reform of morals associated with John Calvin and his followers. Les disciplines ecclésiastiques et les consistoire réformés aussi bien en Hongrie, que dans le monde Suisse, la France, les Pays-Bas ou les Îles britanniques, ont fait l'objet d'intenses débats universitaires. Les quinze textes réunis dans ce volume examinent les processus de censure et d'excommunication pratiqués dans toute l'Europe depuis le milieu du XVIe siècle jusqu'à la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Ils réexaminent les positions des femmes face à l'autorité ecclésiastique et explorent les différentes manières de concevoir et d'appliquer l'exclusion de la Cène. Plusieurs contributeurs décrivent la diminution de la pratique de l'excommunication au fil du temps, d'autres soulignent les différences nationales dans sa nature et les surprenantes variations de son application. Tous offrent un nouveau portrait, inattendu et éclairant, de la réforme de la morale associée à Jean Calvin et ses successeurs. Contributors are Edwin Bezzina, Serge Brunet, Philippe Chareyre, Christian Grosse, Robert M. Kingdon, Suzannah Lipscomb, Michelle Magdelaine, Françoise Moreil, Graeme Murdock, Judith Pollmann, Didier Poton, Salomon Rizzo, Andrew Spicer, Karen Spierling, Nicole Staremberg Goy, and Margo Todd.
Book Synopsis Wind Climate in Cities by : Jack E. Cermak
Download or read book Wind Climate in Cities written by Jack E. Cermak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-11-30 with total page 810 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If one surveys the development of wind engineering, one comes to the conclusion that the challenge of urban climatology is one of the most important remaining tasks for the wind engineers. But what distinguishes wind engineering in urban areas from conventional wind engineering? Principally, the fact that the effects studied are usually unique to a particular situation, requiring consideration of the surroundings of the buildings. In the past, modelling criteria have been developed that make it possible to solve environmental problems with great confidence, and studies validated the models: at least in a neutrally stratified atmosphere. The approach adopted in the book is that of applied fluid mechanics, since this forms the basis for the evaluation of the urban wind field. Variables for air quality or loads are problem specific, or even random, and methods for studying them are based on risk analysis, which is also presented. Criteria are developed for a systematic approach to urban wind engineering problems, including parameter studies. The five sections of the book are: Fundamentals of urban boundary layer and dispersion; Forces on complex structures in built-up areas; Air pollution in cities; Numerical solution techniques; and Posters. A subject index is included.

Book Synopsis The Fascist Turn in the Dance of Serge Lifar by : Mark Franko
Download or read book The Fascist Turn in the Dance of Serge Lifar written by Mark Franko and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-24 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ukrainian dancer and choreographer Serge Lifar (1905-86) is recognized both as the modernizer of French ballet in the twentieth century and as the keeper of the flame of the classical tradition upon which the glory of French ballet was founded. Having migrated to France from Russia in 1923 to join Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, Lifar was appointed star dancer and ballet director at the Paris Opéra in 1930. Despite being rather unpopular with the French press at the start of his appointment, Lifar came to dominate the Parisian dance scene-through his publications as well as his dancing and choreography-until the end of the Second World War, reaching the height of his fame under the German occupation of Paris (1940-44). Rumors of his collaborationism having remained inconclusive throughout the postwar era, Lifar retired in 1958. This book not only reassesses Lifar's career, both aesthetically and politically, but also provides a broader reevaluation of the situation of dance-specifically balletic neoclassicism-in the first half of the twentieth century. The Fascist Turn in the Dance of Serge Lifar is the first book not only to discuss the resistance to Lifar in the French press at the start of his much-mythologized career, but also the first to present substantial evidence of Lifar's collaborationism and relate it to his artistic profile during the preceding decade. In examining the political significance of the critical discussion of Lifar's body and technique, author Mark Franko provides the ground upon which to understand the narcissistic and heroic images of Lifar in the 1930s as prefiguring the role he would play in the occupation. Through extensive archival research into unpublished documents of the era, police reports, the transcript of his postwar trial and rarely cited newspaper columns Lifar wrote, Franko reconstructs the dancer's political activities, political convictions, and political ambitions during the Occupation.
