‎Alfonsine Astronomy: The Written Record‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 426 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:56 col., 15 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503595207.‎

‎Summary Compiled between 1262 and 1272 in Toledo under the patronage of Alfonso X, the Castilian Alfonsine Tables were recast in Paris in the 1320s, resulting in what we now call the Parisian Alfonsine Tables. These materials circulated widely and fostered astronomical activities throughout Europe. This resulted in a significant number of new works, of which there are a few hundred, extant in more than 600 manuscript codices and dozens of printed editions. These manuscripts and imprints, broadly contemporary to the works they witness, comprise the written record of Alfonsine astronomy and provide the focus of this volume. A first series of essays examines individual manuscripts containing Alfonsine works. The authors seek to reconstruct, from the manuscript evidence, the cultural, astronomical and mathematical worlds in which the manuscripts were initially copied, compiled, used and collected. A second series of essays turns from the particular codex to the individual work or author. These contributions ask how particular works have been transmitted in surviving manuscript witnesses and how broader manuscript cultures shaped the diffusion, over two centuries, of Alfonsine astronomy across Europe. A final essay reflects on the challenges and opportunities offered by digital humanities approaches in such collective studies of a large manuscript corpus. TABLE OF CONTENTS Richard L.

‎Architecture of David Lynch‎

‎, Bloomsbury Academic, 2014 PaperbackDimensions 216 x 138 mm 256 Pages, Language(s) Eng. ed. ISBN 9781472508812.‎

‎Home to some of the most remarkable spaces in contemporary culture, the cinema of David Lynch demonstrates an acute awareness of architecture. From the urban wastelands of Eraserhead to the eerie Red Room in Twin Peaks, Lynch's architecture is anxious, absurd and utterly distinct. Contemporary architects such as Peter Eisenman, Gehry and Nouvel have responded to these spaces in fascinating ways. This book is the first sustained critical assessment of the role architecture and design play in Lynch's films.‎

‎Richard Meier, Architect Volume 5‎

‎, Rizzoli International Publications 2009, 2009 Paperback, 432 pages, English, 255 x 250 mm, book is in new state, with dustjacket, . ISBN 9780847832736.‎

‎Richard Meier, Architect: Volume 5 comprehensively documents Meier's work since 2004. This extensively illustrated presentation vividly conveys the purity and power of Meier's vision. Thirty residential, commercial, and civic projects are featured, including the Ara Pacis Museum in Rome, the Burda Collection Museum and Arp Museum in Germany, San Jose City Hall, the Broad Art Center at UCLA, apartment towers in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and master plans for Newark, New Jersey, and Manhattan's East Side. Richard Meier received his architectural training at Cornell University and began his career in the early 1960s designing private residential projects whose elegant modernist style and white facades have become icons of modern architecture. Since that time, his international practice has included museums, courthouses, city halls, corporate headquarters, educational facilities, and public housing, in addition to private houses. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the Pritzker Prize for Architecture and the Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architects.‎

‎Mapplethorpe + Munch‎

‎, Mercatorfonds 2016, 2016 Hardcover, 255 pages, English, 280 x 250 mm, book in perfect condition, very richly illustrated with coloured and b/w illustrations. ISBN 9789462301313.‎

‎This revelatory catalogue delves into the many affinities shared between two widely renowned and discussed artists, Robert Mapplethorpe (1946-1989) and Edvard Munch (1863-1944), whose intensely studied work has, until now, never been considered in relation to one another. Mapplethorpe + Munch brings to light how these two monumental figures curiously relate on an existential level, in how they deal with questions concerning sexuality, and in their way of utilizing self-portraiture as a means to explore issues of personal identity . Featuring essays that examine the thematic impulses behind the accompanying exhibition, this publication establishes a previously unexplored association between two equally contentious art figures, while working to impart alternative perspectives and new insight into their respective outputs. Although distinct in their legacies, Mapplethorpe and Munch remain remarkably intertwined.‎

‎Complete architecture of Adler and Sullivan.‎

‎, Chicago Press , 2010 Hardcover with dusjacket, 472 pages, Illustrated. 31x31cm, Good condition. ISBN 9780966027327.‎

‎An incomparable reference will be treasured by readers interested in architecture, photography, and Chicago's rich history as an architectural mecca. Complete architecture of Adler and Sullivan Louis Sullivan (1856-1924) was a giant of architecture, the father of architectural modernism, and one of the earliest builders of the skyscraper. Along with Dankmar Adler (1844-1900) he designed many of the buildings that defined nineteenth-century architecture not only in Chicago but in cities across America-and continue to be admired today. Among their iconic designs are the former Chicago Stock Exchange, Chicago's Auditorium Building and Carson Pirie Scott flagship store, the Wainwright Building in St. Louis, and the Guaranty Building in Buffalo. This first-of-its-kind catalogue raisonn of the work of Adler and Sullivan-both as a team and individual architects-is a lavish celebration of the designs of these two seminal architects who paved the way for the modern skylines that continue to inspire city dwellers today. The quest to pull together a complete catalogue of their work was first undertaken in 1952 by photographer Aaron Siskind and Richard Nickel, one of his graduate students at what is now the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. This intense, decades-long labor of love has resulted in an extensive and unique resource that includes a complete listing of all of the buildings and projects undertaken by Adler and Sullivan. Each listing contains historic photographs, architectural plans (when available), and a description of each project. Alongside over two and hundred fifty essays are eight hundred photographs of their buildings-many of which have since been demolished-including images by Nickel, Siskind, and other noted photographers.‎

‎Richard of Saint-Victor, On the Trinity. Prologue and Six Books‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, 304 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503594125.‎

‎Summary Richard of Saint-Victor's On The Trinity from the 12th century is a main source for our understanding of a leading intellectual tradition of the Western world in which love was regarded the highest and the best in the human world and therefore also was the reality in which the highest and the best, God, was to be seen. Richard understands human love as interpersonal so that love must be realized between two persons, but for being the highest love that excludes any private and selfish love, both loving persons must share their love with a third person.

‎With Our Backs to the Ocean': Land, Lordship, Climate Change, and Environment in the North-West European Past. Essays in Memory of Alasdair Ross‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, xii + 326 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, 5 col., 7 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, 1 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503596990.‎

‎Summary This collection of ten essays celebrates the life and career of Dr Alasdair Ross, one of Britain's foremost environmental historians, who died in 2017. Inspired by Ross' own research interests, the chapters gathered here explore interlinked themes of land management and property rights, terrestrial and aquatic resource exploitation, mortality crises, and environmental change, viewed largely through the lens of the Scottish experience within the broader context of the eastern North Atlantic region and covering a chronology that spans from the sixth century CE up to the present. Including a previously unpublished paper by Ross himself, which overturns long-held perceptions of fiscal regimes in medieval Scotland, the contributors present radically revisionist or wholly new analyses of key documents and datasets, mostly through applying an interdisciplinary 'environmental turn' to primary record and narrative sources, or advancing new methodological approaches to systems analysis. From saintly interactions with nature to monastic exploitation of natural resources, charter records of land-ownership to the physicality of the landscapes recorded on parchment, and the human cost of subsistence and mortality crises, these papers humanize the discourse around historical climate and environmental change.

‎The affection photographer and Martha's Vineyard resident Alison Shaw feels for her immediate surroundings is clearly expressed in each of her photos of the island. Shaw turns her lens on everything from the architectural details of island houses to fresh blueberries in their crates at the farmer's market and early-morning fisherman at Sengekontacket. She is not afraid to experiment with various polarizing and density filters, which give her images a range of dreamy effects--purple fog lifting off a lagoon, a fiery orange sunset at Paul's Point--and supersaturated colors. This is Shaw's second book of photography of the Vineyard. Her images are strong and colorful, though not always inventive. Still, readers who share her passion for the Vineyard should be happy to peruse this book.‎

‎Trois architectes, Une parcelle de Paris / Three Architects: A Parisian Plot‎

‎Brussel, Archives d'Architecture Modern, 2013 softcover, 236 pages Illustrated. ISBN 9782871432678.‎

‎Located in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, the Montrouge bus centre, where the RATP transport company houses and repairs more than 200 busses, is undergoing a complete overhaul. The 1.7 ha industrial site just west of Cite Universitaire is home to three new projects developed by Eric Lapierre Architecture, Atelier Seraji Architectes & Associes and Emmanuel Combarel & Dominique Marrec. Each of the projects explores the full potential of the site, situated between two very different environments. This careful and attentive approach allowed the architects not simply to design a large homogenous building, which might have turned out overwhelming, but to produce a city - a unique city (for Paris is different from New York, which itself is different from Rome), and one which cannot be reduced to a single truth. It contains several parallel worlds masterfully entwined with an infinity of interconnections.‎
