Ce mémoire cherche à comprendre comment, dans une architecture de réaffectation, l’architecte a-t-il réinterprété ces notions à travers son projet. Il va en effet apporter un nouveau savoir-faire (en termes de construction), il va créer une esthétique nouvelle propre à son vocabulaire et en relation avec le bâti existant, l’idée étant de mettre en exergue l’existant. Ceci va soulever des questions d’éthique, questionnant notamment l’architecture face à notre société actuelle. Cette recherche va se faire en observant deux musées issus d’architectes minimalistes suisses, Herzog et De Meuron pour la Tate Modern, et peter Zumthor pour le musée Kolumba. Ces 2 projets présentent des esthétiques totalement différentes, le musée Kolumba se basant sur la sensorialité, la temporalité, alors que la Tate Modern exprime le côté rationnel de l’industrie, sa réaffectation mettant en avant sa richesse initiale. Dès lors, des questions de l’ordre de l’éthique vont apparaitre, notamment sur la question de l’oeuvre d’art, comment doit-elle être exposée au sein d’un musée.

Between 1550 and 1750 London became the greatest city in Europe and one of the most vibrant economic and cultural centres in the world. This book is a history of London during this crucial period of its rise to world-wide prominence, during which it dominated the economic, political, social and cultural life of the British Isles, as never before nor since. London incorporates the best recent work in urban history, contemporary accounts from Londoners and tourists, and fictional works featuring the city in order to trace London's rise and explore its role as a harbinger of modernity, while examining how its citizens coped with those achievements. London covers the full range of life in London, from the splendid galleries of Whitehall to the damp and sooty alleyways of the East End. Readers will brave the dangers of plague and fire, witness the spectacles of the Lord Mayor's Pageant and the hangings at Tyburn, and take refreshment in the city's pleasure-gardens, coffee-houses and taverns.

In Migrant Modernism, J. Dillon Brown examines the intersection between British literary modernism and the foundational West Indian novels that emerged in London after World War II. By emphasizing the location in which anglophone Caribbean writers such as George Lamming, V. S. Naipaul, and Samuel Selvon produced and published their work, Brown reveals a dynamic convergence between modernism and postcolonial literature that has often been ignored. Modernist techniques not only provided a way for these writers to mark their difference from the aggressively English, literalist aesthetic that dominated postwar literature in London but also served as a self-critical medium through which to treat themes of nationalism, cultural inheritance, and identity.
