Download or read book Terra 2008 written by Leslie Rainer and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2011-06-14 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.

This book was released on 1991-06-14 with total page 1154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "European Yearbook" has expanded over the years in keeping with the role played by European institutions compared with national ones. It is an indispensable work of reference for anyone dealing with these institutions, which have become so numerous and varied that no-one can possibly memorise all their acronyms or functions. The "European Yearbook" provides aids for finding one's way through the labyrinth of these organisations which coordinate a variety of activities in over 20 countries. One of the aids is an 'organisation chart' at the beginning of the documentary section, giving a clear picture of the general situation. A perusal of the many contributions in the volume organisation by organisation, shows the full diversity of the activities which Europe is gradually taking over from national governments, with their consent and financial support. Written in both of the Council of Europe's official languages, English and French, the "European Yearbook" also contains a general index by subject and name which constitutes a very valuable list of articles and provides direct access to the work's subject matter, regardless of the particular organisation concerned, offering a kind of cross-section of the activities of European organisations.

Download or read book Water Heritage written by Willem Willems and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is vital for life, and its availability has been a concern for mankind throughout the ages. Its presence has always been ascertained in a variety of ways and the development of human society everywhere is connected with various forms of water management. Man also needed to manage water to find protection from its dangers and the need for that is increasing. In the coming decades, the impact of climate change is expected to intensify floods and droughts, affect groundwater resources, raise sea levels, increase pollution and enhance the frequency and magnitude of disasters. Societies around the world are challenged to adapt to these threats to ensure water security, economic prosperity and environmental and cultural sustainability. This book deals with the heritage of water management and the use that was made of water, as well as the impact of water management on heritage. An example of the former may be an ancient irrigation system in the Filipines or in the Middle East that still functions today, while the latter may reflect the importance of maintaining groundwater levels for the preservation of organic remains on archaeological sites or of wooden piles underneath standing buildings. In either case the papers in this book reflect the dynamic nature of water, and hence the equally dynamic relation between water management and heritage. This publication follows up on a Heritage and Water conference in Amsterdam, the first of its kind. Its main purpose is to credibly present the importance and value of heritage and historical experience for water and sustainable development, and vice versa, present the importance of water management for the protection of heritage. It presents evolving insights and concepts about Water and about Heritage from a variety of disciplines, policy and public perspectives illustrated with cases studies and aims to connect decision makers with experts such as engineers, archaeologists, historians, geographers, ecologist and landscape architects

Download or read book Patrimoine des Balkans written by Maximilien Durand and published by Somogy éditions d'art. This book was released on 2005 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'association Patrimoine sans frontières a engagé, dans le cadre du programme " Culture 2000 " de la Commission européenne, une action sur un site exceptionnel et méconnu d'Albanie, la ville de Voskopojë. Le projet, intitulé " Voskopojë sans frontières ", a conduit de nombreux spécialistes français, allemands, grecs et albanais dans un village aujourd'hui habité par 500 habitants, mais qui était, au XVIIe et au XVIIIe siècle l'une des villes les plus florissantes des Balkans. Située sur la route qui reliait Venise, Dürres et Constantinople, Voskopojë possédait une Académie, une imprimerie et de nombreuses églises. Enclave chrétienne au sein du vaste Empire ottoman, elle faisait appel aux meilleurs artistes du temps, comme David Selenica ou les frères Constantin et Athanase Zografi, formés au mont Athos, pour peindre à fresque les lieux de culte. Le relatif oubli dont a souffert Voskopojë durant les dernières décennies, malheureusement, a engendré de graves problèmes de conservation, mettant en péril ce site précieux du patrimoine mondial qui compte un monastère et cinq églises exceptionnelles par leurs décors peints post-byzantins, intérieurs et extérieurs. C'est pourquoi, en collaboration avec l'Institut des monuments de culture d'Albanie, un chantier-école européen de conservation et de restauration a été entrepris, sous la direction scientifique de l'Institut national du patrimoine, centré sur l'église Saint-Athanase. Parallèlement, d'autres actions ont été menées à Voskopojë : archéologie du site, photogrammétrie, études d'architecture, d'histoire de l'art, d'iconographie, de climatologie... Patrimoine des Balkans, Voskopojë sans frontières 2004 se propose donc de faire le compte-rendu des premiers travaux conduits sur les lieux mêmes. Le volume, constitué de plusieurs contributions des spécialistes qui se sont rendus sur place, témoigne de la diversité des actions menées et, surtout, de l'importance et de l'intérêt du patrimoine de Voskopojë. Mais le propos de l'ouvrage se veut plus large. Voskopojë ne saurait être isolée d'une réflexion générale sur l'art post-byzantin dans les Balkans, descendant direct de l'art byzantin, qui s'est épanoui parallèlement à l'art de l'islam dans des régions situées aux frontières de l'Occident et de l'Orient. C'est pourquoi d'autres textes ont été réunis dans le volume, afin de montrer comment l'expression artistique des Balkans s'inscrit, en dépit de ses particularités, dans une tradition riche et multiple.
