Sommario/riassunto |
|
Death and the Labyrinth is unique, being Foucault's only work on literature. For Foucault this was by far the book I wrote most easily and with the greatest pleasure. Here, Foucault explores theory, criticism and psychology through the texts of Raymond Roussel, one of the fathers of experimental writing, whose work has been celebrated by the likes of Cocteau, Duchamp, Breton, Robbe Grillet, Gide and Giacometti. This revised edition includes an introduction, chronology and bibliography to Foucault's work by James Faubion, an interview with Foucault, conducted only nine months before his death, |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (25 juin 1852 - 10 juin 1926) est un architecte catalan. Diplômé de l'École d'architecture de Barcelone en 1878, il travaille dès ses débuts avec l'architecte Josep Fontsere sur le projet du parc de la Ciutadella. Sa carrière commence vraiment en 1883, avec le début de l'édification de la Casa Vicens. Jeune architecte, il est d'abord inspiré par Eugène Viollet-le-Duc mais bien vite, il rompt avec le modèle néogothique et se fait remarquer par son originalité et sa fantaisie. Dès ses premiers projets, il fait cohabiter architecture et mobilier. Inscrit dans la mouvance de |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
The book focuses on geological history as the critical factor in determining the present biodiversity and landscapes of Amazonia. The different driving mechanisms for landscape evolution are explored by reviewing the history of the Amazonian Craton, the associated sedimentary basins, and the role of mountain uplift and climate change. This book provdes an insight into the Meso- and Cenozoic record of Amazonia that was characterized by fluvial and long-lived lake systems and a highly diverse flora and fauna. This fauna includes giants such as the ca. 12 m long caiman Purussaurus, but also a v |
