The Poetics of Insecurity turns the emerging field of literary security studies upside down. Rather than tying the prevalence of security to a culture of fear, Johannes Voelz shows how American literary writers of the past two hundred years have mobilized insecurity to open unforeseen and uncharted horizons of possibility for individuals and collectives. In a series of close readings of works by Charles Brockden Brown, Harriet Jacobs, Willa Cather, Flannery O'Connor, and Don DeLillo, Voelz brings to light a cultural imaginary in which conventional meanings of security and insecurity are frequently reversed, so that security begins to appear as deadening and insecurity as enlivening. Timely, broad-ranging, and incisive, Johannes Voelz's study intervenes in debates on American literature as well as in the interdisciplinary field of security studies. It fundamentally challenges our existing explanations for the pervasiveness of security in American cultural and political life.

L’œuvre et le temps, le temps à l’œuvre : le thème du Dossier de ce numéro 14 de matières, volontairement vaste, se traduit tout naturellement par des angles d’approche multiples. Dans cette optique sont interrogées l’extension de monuments, les formes paradoxales qu’adoptent les logements collectifs entre 1968 et 1973 ou encore la reproductibilité du modèle de l’«Unité d’habitation» de Le Corbusier. À ces déclinaisons du lien entre temps et œuvre s’ajoutent un cheminement autour de la durabilité de la pierre ainsi qu’une réflexion sur la réception critique d’un bâtiment. Ce numéro réunit des sujets variés : le chantier de l’église de l’Autoroute de Michelucci, le travail de l’artiste Isa Genzken, la genèse du livre sur le New Brutalism de Banham et une visite de Berlin a des temps différents. La section «Archives» explore les projets des architectes Paul Cottancin, Eduard Lanz et Erik Gunnar Asplund.

"Die Präsenz der klassischen Antike - als Norm oder Form, als blosse Denkfigur oder ausgefeiltes Theoriegebäude - gehört zu den grossen Konstanten der abendländischen Architektur. Doch waren die Vorstellungen, die man mit antiker Architektur verband, im Verlauf der Geschichte erheblichen Wandlungen ausgesetzt. Deshalb widmet sich der Band dem epochenübergreifenden Wandel des Antikenbildes in der europäischen Architektur. Die hier vereinten Beiträge fragen sowohl nach spezifischen Verläufen theoretischer oder praktischer Antikenaneignung zu verschiedenen Zeiten als auch danach, welche Bedeutungen, Funktionen und Färbungen der Begriff "Antike" als Instanz architektonischen Denkens zwischen Altertum und Gegenwart gewann. Im Epochenvergleich treten die Spannung zwischen Antikenbild und zeitgenössischer architektonischer Kultur deutlich zu Tage, und zwar in doppelter Hinsicht: Kenntnis und Wertung der Antike wirken auf Entwurf und Theoriebildung ein, das jeweilige Antikenbild verändert sich aber auch unter der Einwirkung jeweils aktueller Vorgaben"-- "The normative and formal presence of classical antiquity - as a mere figure of thought or a fully elaborated body of theory - is one of the great constants in the history of Western architecture. Yet the ideas that people have associated with ancient architecture have undergone major transformations through the course of history. This volume addresses how perceptions of antiquity have evolved over different periods in European architecture"--

This book begins with the observation that contemporary artists have embraced and employed gravity as an immaterial readymade. Necessarily focusing on material practices – chiefly sculpture, installation, performance, and film – this discussion takes account of how and why artists have used gravity and explores the similarities between their work and the popular cultural forms of circus, vaudeville, burlesque, and film. Works by Rodney Graham, Stan Douglas, and Robert Smithson are mediated through ideas of Gnostic doubt, atomism, and new materialism. In other examples – by John Wood and Paul Harrison, Gordon Matta-Clark, Peter Fischli and David Weiss, Trisha Brown, and Bas Jan Ader – mass and momentum, falling objects, and falling bodies are examined in relation to architecture, sculpture, and dance. In performances, projects and events curated by Bruce Nauman, Santiago Sierra, and Catherine Yass, gravity is resisted in Sisyphean ordeals and death-defying stunts. This account of contemporary art and performance, read through the invisible membrane of gravity, exposes new and distinctive approaches to agency reduction, authorial doubt, and redemptive failure

According to the hypothesis underlying this book, a literary case is the critical counterpart of a level of information provided by the scale of a map. Indeed, as a map towards the mapped terrain, a literary fact is a critical case that transforms a state of affairs into another without changing this state of affairs, like a murder that would become a psychiatric affair without ceasing to be a murder. The same is true for Rousseau's self-writing, Hölderlin's mourning, Baudelaire's sublime, Mallarmé's fiction, Marguerite Duras's love, Paul Celan's date, Charlotte Delbo's skin, memory fitting at Chris Marker, or the character owned by Jean Rouch. All these cases have been the subject of specific studies and textual analyzes, who are gathered here to think the literary fact in its critical force. These texts have been written and ordered according to the relations that literature has with other fields of knowledge, other disciplines, other practices, or at different levels of otherness.
