Binet Laurent Civilizations
Vers l'an mille : la fille d’Erik le Rouge met cap au sud avec son mari, quelques hommes, du betail et des chevaux. 1492 : Colomb ne decouvre pas l'Amerique. 1531 : les Incas envahissent l'Europe. Ce qui a manque aux Incas pour resister aux conquistadors : le cheval, le fer, les anticorps. Dans Civilizations, les Vikings les leur ont apportes. Quelques siecles plus tard, Atahualpa debarque dans l'Europe de Charles Quint. Il trouve un continent dechire par les querelles religieuses et dynastiques. Mais surtout, des populations brimees, affamees, au bord du soulevement – des allies. Voici le recit d’une autre mondialisation, telle qu'au fond il s'en est fallu d'un rien pour qu'elle l'emporte et devienne realite. L’esprit ironique et la virtuosite mimetique de l’ecrivain eclatent dans ce renversement de l’histoire. Le Monde des livres. Une fresque vertigineuse. Le Figaro litteraire. Intelligent, vif, moderne. Un fantastique plaisir de lecture ! Historia. GRAND PRIX DU ROMAN DE L’ACADEMIE FRANCAISE.

Lem Stanislaw The Cyberiad
A charming, mind-bending and anarchic book of imagined civilizations 'Most cosmic civilizations long for things, in the depths of their souls, they would never openly admit to...' Trurl and Klapaucius are 'constructors' - they travel around the universe creating machines of astonishing inventiveness and power and visiting a bewildering variety of violent, peculiar and morose civilizations. The Cyberiad is oddly reminiscent of Gulliver's Travels, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Phantom Tollbooth and Alice in Wonderland. Charming, mind-bending and anarchic, it is perhaps Lem's greatest work. This edition includes all of Daniel Mroz's hallucinatory original illustrations.

Inha Jung. Constructing the Socialist Way of Life
Что архитектурные чертежи рассказывают о Северной Корее.Жилье и городское планирование составляют ключевой элемент материальной основы Северной Кореи. В послевоенную эпоху в стране предпринимались попытки социализировать все типы жилых пространств на основе политической идеологии: от небольших квартирных комнат до городских условий. Идея о том, что политические силы Северной Кореи промывают мозги своему народу, как показывают свидетельства многих перебежчиков, поверхностна.Эта книга, исследуя отечественную культуру и повседневную жизнь, призвана охватить реальную жизнь северокорейцев, которые во многом поддерживают уникальную политическую систему страны. Для этого используются рисунки, карты и схемы, полученные из различных архивов. Хотя это нейтральные формы общения, они также передают истинные намерения северокорейских архитекторов и планировщиков, скрытые за заявлениями политических лидеров.What Architectural Drawings Reveal about North KoreaHousing and urban planning constitute a key element of the material foundation of North Korea. In the post-war era, the country attempted to socialize all types of living spaces based on political ideology, from small apartment rooms to urban set- tings. The idea that North Korea’s political forces are brainwashing their people is, as the testimonies of many defectors reveal, superficial.Exploring domestic culture and daily life, this book aims to capture the actual lives of North Koreans, who have largely supported the unique political system of the country. To this end, it uses drawings, maps, and diagrams obtained from various archives. While these are neutral forms of communication, they also convey the actual intentions of North Korean architects and planners hidden behind the claims of political leaders.
