Walking, Witnessing, Mapping: An Interview with Iain Sinclair
No full textMapping Cultures is a collection of essays exploring the diverse practices and cultures of mapping on the one hand, and the mapping of different forms of cultural practice on the other. The book draws on a wide range of disciplinary perspectives, including critical cartography, social anthropology, film and cultural studies, literary studies, art and visual culture, marketing, architecture, and popular music studies. Underpinning the theoretical and methodological approaches of all the contributions is a close engagement with mapping both as a mode of cultural and spatial analysis, and as a point of critical intersection in which ideas and practices of cartography are challenged, re-envisioned and brought into play with a broad range of theoretical perspectives. The collection is loosely organized around three main thematic sections: the cartographic textualities of space, landscape and place; mappings of performance and urban memoryscapes; and the practical, aesthetic and performative cartographies of critical spatial enquiry
Les fables de La Fontaine revues et salées ou un petit clin d'oeil érotique à un grand monsieur
No full textHere is a witty turn on La Fontaine. As the back cover says of Clément, Ses adaptations sont certes érotiques, mais elles n'ont rien de pornographique. I would agree. The book takes a fresh look at some thirty-eight of La Fontaine's best known fables and presents them as a commentary on some sexual issue. Thus, as far as I can tell, the cicada (11-12) has been only something of a flirt, while the ant has been a working prostitute. The ant's advice here is Vous flirtiez? Baisez maintenant!!! What the cat interrupts in TMCM is here apparently not a meal (24-25)! Les Voleurs et l'Âne gets cleverly transposed into Les Violeurs et l'Anne (28). I think that the pearl that this cock finds is not a jewel but a part of the female anatomy (36). Similarly the grapes that the fox on 69 wants are part of the body of a woman. One needs good colloquial French, perhaps even Canadian colloquial French, to get all that is happening here. Bruce Roberts' sketches help this reader to know better sometimes what is going on.Language note: FrenchJuliette Clémen
