Concrete and Culture pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Almost three tons of concrete are produced each year for every person on the planet; only water is consumed more per head of population. Now used almost universally in modern construction, concrete polarizes opinion: provoking intense loathing and even nausea in some, it is regarded by others with a messianic passion. Concrete and Culture breaks new ground by studying concrete's effects on culture rather than its technical properties. Adrian Forty examines the ways concrete has changed our understanding of 'nature', of time, even of 'material'. While the book concentrates upon architects' responses to concrete, because they have had most to say about the medium, it also takes into account the role concrete has played in politics, in literature, in cinema, in labour-relations, and in present day arguments about sustainability. Politicians, entrepreneurs, clerics, photographers, artists, and filmmakers have all taken advantage of concrete for purposes of their own. Covering Europe, North America, South America and the Far East, Concrete and Culture asks to what degree concrete has been responsible for modernist uniformity and looks at the debates it has engendered. The first reflection on the global consequences of concrete, the book offers a new way of looking at our environment over the past one hundred years.
一本非常好的书,混凝土作为媒介的社会史,透过混凝土讨论了很多文化转向的内容,这也是Adrian forty擅长的历史写作路数。十个章节从不同角度写作了作为媒介的混凝土,譬如反映不同时期对混凝土的不同认知和使用方式,和为何变化背后的社会,技术和经济原因,也有章节把混凝土作为技术概念下现代化过程的表征,反映政治经济的变化。总之是一本特别值得看的精彩著作,另外他写作干净易懂,不爱掉书袋,随便看看都值得。
评分果真是研究什么的人都有.....Forty首先是个建筑史学家 他写到一半的时候似乎突然读到了类似We have never been mordern之类的书然后就懵逼了。我意思是他很多概念 比如mordenity 从未被解释 而他似乎也一直在不同可能性之间摇摆。另外混凝土建筑大多数实在是真·“丑”。
