Download or read book L idea costruita written by Alberto Campo Baeza and published by LetteraVentidue Edizioni. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'idea costruita è il manifesto teorico di Alberto Campo Baeza; una raccolta di testi di varia provenienza che manifesta la chiarezza del suo pensiero e la straordinaria coerenza della sua opera. Concentrandosi sui fondamenti della disciplina (la luce, il confronto con la gravità, il valore delle idee, il flusso incessante della storia) l'autore redige un testo colto ma volontariamente antiaccademico, aperto alle suggestioni delle altre discipline artistiche ma con una evidente passione didattica. I testi sui grandi maestri dell'architettura spagnola (Fisac, De la Sota, Sáenz de Oíza, Coderch, Carvajal), mondiale (Mies van der Rohe, Utzon), o sui colleghi della scena internazionale (Ando, Chipperfield, llinás, Vicens e Ramos) mettono in luce il suo percorso culturale e la sua idea di architettura, basata sul suo rigoroso «más con menos». «La storia dell'architettura, lungi dall'essere solo una storia delle forme, è fondamentalmente una storia delle idee costruite. Le forme si disgregano col tempo ma le idee rimangono, sono eterne». «Un'architettura che ha nell'idea la sua origine, nella luce il suo primo materiale, nello spazio essenziale la volontà di ottenere il più con meno».

Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 Prix Goncourt, an astounding novel that bridges Europe and the Islamic world Winner of the Prix Goncourt (France), the Leipzig Prize (Germany), Premio Von Rezzori (Italy), shortlisted for the 2017 International Man Booker Prize, shortlisted for the Dublin Literary Award As night falls over Vienna, Franz Ritter, an insomniac musicologist, takes to his sickbed with an unspecified illness and spends a restless night drifting between dreams and memories, revisiting the important chapters of his life: his ongoing fascination with the Middle East and his numerous travels to Istanbul, Aleppo, Damascus, and Tehran, as well as the various writers, artists, musicians, academics, orientalists, and explorers who populate this vast dreamscape. At the center of these memories is his elusive, unrequited love, Sarah, a fiercely intelligent French scholar caught in the intricate tension between Europe and the Middle East. With exhilarating prose and sweeping erudition, Mathias Énard pulls astonishing elements from disparate sources—nineteenth-century composers and esoteric orientalists, Balzac and Agatha Christie—and binds them together in a most magical way.
Download or read book Experiences in Translation written by Umberto Eco and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Umberto Eco argues that translation is not about comparing two languages, but about the interpretation of a text in two different languages, thus involving a shift between cultures. An author whose works have appeared in many languages, Eco is also the translator of Gérard de Nerval's Sylvie and Raymond Queneau's Exercices de style from French into Italian. In Experiences in Translation he draws on his substantial practical experience to identify and discuss some central problems of translation. As he convincingly demonstrates, a translation can express an evident deep sense of a text even when violating both lexical and referential faithfulness. Depicting translation as a semiotic task, he uses a wide range of source materials as illustration: the translations of his own and other novels, translations of the dialogue of American films into Italian, and various versions of the Bible. In the second part of his study he deals with translation theories proposed by Jakobson, Steiner, Peirce, and others. Overall, Eco identifies the different types of interpretive acts that count as translation. An enticing new typology emerges, based on his insistence on a common-sense approach and the necessity of taking a critical stance.

Download or read book Sandalwood Death written by Mo Yan and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This powerful novel by Mo Yan—one of contemporary China’s most famous and prolific writers—is both a stirring love story and an unsparing critique of political corruption during the final years of the Qing Dynasty, China’s last imperial epoch. Sandalwood Death is set during the Boxer Rebellion (1898–1901)—an anti-imperialist struggle waged by North China’s farmers and craftsmen in opposition to Western influence. Against a broad historical canvas, the novel centers on the interplay between its female protagonist, Sun Meiniang, and the three paternal figures in her life. One of these men is her biological father, Sun Bing, an opera virtuoso and a leader of the Boxer Rebellion. As the bitter events surrounding the revolt unfold, we watch Sun Bing march toward his cruel fate, the gruesome “sandalwood punishment,” whose purpose, as in crucifixions, is to keep the condemned individual alive in mind-numbing pain as long as possible. Filled with the sensual imagery and lacerating expressions for which Mo Yan is so celebrated, Sandalwood Death brilliantly exhibits a range of artistic styles, from stylized arias and poetry to the antiquated idiom of late Imperial China to contemporary prose. Its starkly beautiful language is here masterfully rendered into English by renowned translator Howard Goldblatt.
