Abstract

Le Dictionnaire historique du patrimoine, propose une synthèse inédite sur l'histoire du développement du sentiment et de la conscience du patrimoine. Consacrées à une centaine de personnalités, une quarantaine de sites ou de monuments et quatre-vingts thématiques ou institutions, les deux cent vingt-six notices de ce Dictionnaire, riches de nombreuses citations et assorties de références bibliographiques, explorent les différentes étapes de l'investissement du champ social, politique et culturel par ce processus de patrimonialisation et constituent autant d'études de cas illustrant l'ancrage du patrimoine dans la société. Si l'ouvrage tient compte des liens étroits qui associent la notion de patrimoine à l'histoire ainsi qu'à l'histoire de l'art et de l'architecture et prend en considération les apports d'autres sciences humaines – anthropologie, philosophie, sociologie, économie... –, il n'en vise pas moins à mettre en évidence la voie singulière empruntée au cours de son émergence progressive, nourrie du dialogue entre la mémoire et sa charge d'affect et l'histoire, forte de sa visée scientifique. Le choix de la forme du dictionnaire, complété par un système de renvoi d'une notice à l'autre et par deux index – consacrés, l'un aux personnes, l'autre aux sites et monuments mentionnés – permet à chacun de conduire sa propre lecture.

Abstract

"Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. This insightful Research Agenda examines the multidimensional relationships between heritage planning and pressing current societal challenges around climate, identity and development. Mapping future avenues for the field, it suggests new approaches to executing, studying and reflecting on heritage planning. Expert international contributors raise key questions that challenge practice and research to push for structural and institutional change. The book highlights the transformative potential of heritage planning and the responsibilities that come with such potential. Chapters explore central topics including heritage-led regeneration, cultural landscape management, food, music and tourism, using social, participatory and digital research methods. They are contextualised with questions around contestation and politization, and the changing conceptualisations of heritage planning. Spanning the domains of theoretical and empirical insights, from academic outlooks to professional challenges, this Research Agenda will be a vital resource for academics and students of urban and human geography, heritage studies, planning, urban design and architecture. Its examination of heritage planning practices will also be useful for policy makers and professionals working in the heritage planning field"--

Abstract

"Emotional Heritage brings the issues of affect and power in the theorisation of heritage to the fore, whilst also highlighting the affective and political consequences of heritage-making. Drawing on interviews with visitors to museums and heritage sites in the United States, Australia and England, Smith argues that obtaining insights into how visitors use such sites enables us to understand the impact and consequences of professional heritage and museological practices. The concept of registers of engagement is introduced to assess variations in how visitors use museums and sites that address national or dissonant histories, and the political consequences of their use. Visitors are revealed as agents in the roles cultural institutions play in maintaining or challenging the political and social status quo. Heritage is, Smith argues, about people and their social situatedness, and the meaning they, alongside or in concert with cultural institutions, make and mobilise to help them address social problems and expressions of identity and sense of place in and for the present. Academics, students and practitioners interested in theories of power and affect in museums and heritage sites will find Emotional Heritage to be an invaluable resource. Helping professionals to understand the potential impact of their practice, the book also provides insights into the role visitors play in the interplay between heritage and politics"--

Abstract

Why do we decide that parts of our built environment are worth the special attention that heritage designation brings? How can the character of conservation areas and other historic places continue to evolve to provide new housing, release their economic potential and enhance communities? What are the principles to understand when judging the impact of new development or alterations to our significant heritage assets? And what about the future of conservation? In seeking to answer such questions, this book provides a grounding for planners and other related professionals in the key concepts associated with conservation and how to apply them in practice.
