Sommario/riassunto

"After World War II, the industrial bases of many cities have shrunk or moved elsewhere, turning large parts of once thriving cities into vacant lots and empty shells. Despite sobering statistics about the decline of the industrial Midwest, economists, urban planners, and sociologists are optimistic that the post-industrial city can reinvent itself. SynergiCity: The Architecture of the Post-Industrial City proposes a new vision of urbanism, architectural design, and urban revitalization in the United States in the twenty-first century, with a particular emphasis on the industrial Midwest. It offers an remedy for the decline of the post-industrial city drawing on successes in a number of major cities and on expertise from a variety of fields and methodologies. The authors contend that industrial cities like Peoria, Detroit, Saint Louis, must continually redefine themselves if they expect to attract a new creative class of residents and compete globally. One of the project's driving questions is, "What architectural form will this new innovation economy take in the rust-belt cities of the Midwest?" The contributors and



editors of this book have developed design principles to promote the innovation necessary to transform cities like Peoria for the new economy, based on findings from similar case studies of similar cities and developments (including the American Tobacco District in Durham, NC; the Warehouse District of New Orleans, the Milwaukee River Greenway, and the Detroit Eastern Market Redevelopment District). The contributors are experts in architecture, planning, and real estate development. The book features images developed by the University of Illinois Graduate Architecture Studio, as well as relevant images from Peoria and other cities"--

"SynergiCity: Reinventing the Postindustrial City proposes a new and invigorating vision of urbanism, architectural design, and urban revitalization in twenty-first-century America. Culling transformative ideas from the realms of historic preservation, sustainability, ecological urbanism, and the innovation economy, Paul Hardin Kapp and Paul J. Armstrong present a holistic vision for restoring industrial cities suffering from population decline back into stimulating and productive places to live and work. With a particular emphasis on the Rust Belt of the American Midwest, SynergiCity argues that cities such as Detroit, St. Louis, and Peoria must redefine themselves to be globally competitive. This revitalization is possible through environmentally and economically sustainable restoration of industrial areas and warehouse districts for commercial, research, light industrial, and residential uses. The volume's expert researchers, urban planners, and architects draw on the redevelopment successes of other major cities--such as the American Tobacco District in Durham, North Carolina, and the Milwaukee River Greenway--to set guidelines and goals for reinventing and revitalizing the postindustrial landscape. Contributors are Paul J. Armstrong, Donald K. Carter, Lynne M. Dearborn, Norman W. Garrick, Mark Gillem, Robert Greenstreet, Craig Harlan Hullinger, Paul Hardin Kapp, Ray Lees, Emil Malizia, John O. Norquist, Christine Scott Thomson, and James Wasley"--

Sommario/riassunto

La popularité actuelle de Sherlock Holmes, son importance dans notre paysage, posent la question de savoir pourquoi il est, plus que jamais, notre contemporain. Notre société, plus victorienne qu’il n’y paraît, voit monter un certain nombre d’angoisses et d’inquiétudes urbaines – économiques, sociales, médicales – qui ravivent du même coup le paradigme d’un enquêteur quasi infaillible, capable de résoudre, avec rapidité, élégance et brio des énigmes pourtant retorses, défiant les compétences de la police officielle. Un retour au texte de Conan Doyle montre pourtant que ce paradigme est instable, que le détective est capable de toutes les métamorphoses et de tous les déguisements. Le fait que la série de la BBC Sherlock transpose aujourd’hui avec une aisance ludique l’univers créé par Conan Doyle dans le Strand Magazine à la fin des années 1880 illustre la foncière plasticité et adaptabilité de la figure du célèbre détective, jusque dans le monde des téléphones portables et d’Internet qui est le nôtre.  Les actes du colloque international « Sherlock Holmes : un nouveau limier pour le XXIe siècle » tenu à Cerisy-la-Salle en 2014 remontent aux sources mêmes du mythe littéraire pour suivre les évolutions subies par ce couple éminemment malléable qu’est le duo formé par Sherlock Holmes et le Dr Watson. Des premières adaptations pour l’écran muet, réalisées du vivant même de l’auteur, jusqu’aux séries télévisées actuelles, entre réécritures et pastiches qui passent par le cinéma, la BD, et la littérature, les auteurs ici réunis traquent les formes esthétiques et les supports divers qui ont porté l’image protéiforme du détective et de son acolyte jusqu’à nous, creusant le personnage aux attributs si reconnaissables pour mieux en dégager la profondeur. Venu à nous « d’un Londres de gaz et de bruine », Sherlock Holmes est bien, selon Borges, « une de ces bonnes manies qui nous restent ».
