Abstract

Architecture is an experience - with the intellect and with all our senses, in motion, and in use. But in order to actually discuss and assess it with relevance, a clarification of terms is essential in order to avoid the vagueness that often prevails when talking about architecture. This dictionary provides a vocabulary that allows the architecture discourse to go beyond the declaration of constructive relationships or the description of architectonic forms in familiar terms like "roof," "base," "wall," and "axis" or "proportion". The point is to describe the experience of architecture: how exactly does it contribute to the experience of a situation? For instance, the staging of an entrance situation, or the layout and visitor routes through a museum. From "context," through "guidance," "readability," "patina," "spatial structure," "symmetry" and "tectonics," to "width" (and "narrowness") or "window," the most important terms in architectural language are explained precisely and in detail. Wörterbuch der architektonischen Erfahrung - Wie wir Räume erleben Architektur wird erlebt - mit Intellekt und mit allen Sinnen, in der Bewegung und im Gebrauch. Doch um darüber tatsächlich zutreffend zu reden und zu urteilen, ist eine Klärung der Begriffe nötig, wenn die Schwammigkeit vermieden werden soll, die auf diesem Gebiet oft vorherrscht.Dieses Wörterbuch gibt ein Vokabular an die Hand, das ein Sprechen über Architektur jenseits der Erklärung konstruktiver Zusammenhänge oder der Beschreibung architektonischer Formen ermöglicht, unter der Verwendung geläufiger Begriffe wie "Dach", "Sockel", "Wand" und "Achse" oder "Proportion". Es geht darum, das Erleben von Architektur zu beschreiben: Wie trägt sie zum Erleben einer Situation bei? Etwa in der Inszenierung einer Eingangssituation oder mit der Wegeführung durch ein Museum.Von A bis Z, von "Ablesbarkeit" über "Fenster", "Kontext", "Orientierung", "Patina", "Raumgefüge", "Symmetrie" und "Tektonik" bis hin zu "Weite" (und "Enge") oder "Zentrum" werden die wichtigsten Begriffe der Architektursprache differenziert und vielschichtig erklärt.Präzise Handskizzen des Autors illustrieren den Text und bilden ein visuelles Gegengewicht zur Erläuterung von insgesamt 139 Stichworten.

Abstract

Dialect, Culture and Society in Eastern Arabia is a three-volume study of the Arabic dialects spoken in Bahrain by its older generation in the mid 1970s, and the socio-cultural factors that produced them. The present Volume III: Phonology, Morphology, Syntax, Style , is based on an extensive archive of recorded material, gathered for its ethnographic as well as its purely linguistic interest. Volume I: Glossary , published in 2001, lists all the dialectal vocabulary, with extensive contextual exemplification, and cross-referenced to other lexica, which occurred in the complete set of texts recorded during fieldwork. Volume II: Ethnographic Texts , published in 2005, presents a selection of these texts, transcribed, annotated and translated, and with detailed background essays, covering major aspects of the pre-oil culture of the Gulf and the initial stages of the transition to the modern era: pearl diving, agriculture, communal relations, marriage, childhood, domestic life, work. Excerpts from local dialect poems concerned with these subjects are also included.
