The book brings together prominent scholars in phenomenology of place. Covering a range of issues from sacred places to embodiment and identity and from environmental art and architecture to limit places, the contributors explore theoretical foundations through thinkers such as Heidegger, Marion-Young, Husserl, and Leopold among others. Phenomenological method and description are brought to bear on concrete places such as rivers, the Himalayas, modern transit, sacred architecture and more. The book is accessible and pertinent to on-going discussions in human geography, architectural theory, environmental studies, and philosophy of place. Provocative and imaginative, the essays provide a much-needed look at the contributions of phenomenology to, as well as the role of place in, contemporary philosophical and environmental discussions.

Cet ouvrage s’intéresse aux lieux laissés vacants, avec le projet de débusquer le sens caché que recouvre leur mise à l’écart du jeu social. Il aborde leur « renaturation », qui leur confère une valeur mémorielle, ainsi que leur réaménagement ou leur restauration. Autrement dit, il s’essaie à décrypter le jeu subtil de l’oubli et de la mémoire qui s’y joue, entre enfouissement et résurgence. Parmi ces lieux, l’auteur examine particulièrement les friches et étudie celles-ci sous leurs multiples facettes : en référence à leur statut, qu’on les qualifie de rurales, urbaines, industrielles, militaires, touristiques… même si le plus souvent elles sont tout cela à la fois ; en rapport à leur durée, variable, car il en est d’immémoriales mais aussi d’éphémères, d’involontaires et de circonstanciées ; et au regard de leur finalité, au moment où elles sont réappropriées par des activités patrimoniales, touristiques… L’idée ici soutenue serait que les espaces délaissés deviennent des lieux de mémoire par le biais de leur réappropriation patrimoniale, dès lors qu’une recherche identitaire s’accommode de leur mise en tourisme. La friche est donc présentée ici comme un fondement de l’illusion mémorielle, une nostalgie du rétro ?

A work of outstanding originality and importance, which will become a cornerstone in the philosophy of geography, this book asks: What is human science? Is a truly human science of geography possible? What notions of spatiality adequately describe human spatial experience and behaviour? It sets out to answer these questions through a discussion of the nature of science in the human sciences, and, specifically, of the role of phenomenology in such inquiry. It criticises established understanding of phenomenology in these sciences, and demonstrates how they are integrally related to each other. The need for a reflective geography to accompany all empirical science is argued strongly. The discussion is organised into four parts: geography and traditional metaphysics; geography and phenomenology; phenomenology and the question of human science; and human science, worldhood and place. The author draws upon the works, of Husserl, Heidegger, Gadamer and Kockelmans in particular.

Le monde est divers. La géographie cherche à comprendre cet état de fait. Dans cet effort, elle exprime la volonté de penser le monde habité d’une façon cohérente, de le penser comme étant organisé. Or, en avançant le concept d’organisation pour expliquer la diversité des paysages, la géographie introduit des a priori dans ses raisonnements. Elle présuppose que les lieux sont différents tout en étant solidaires, ce qui revient à dire que l’espace géographique doit être discontinu tout en étant unifié par des formes qui le structurent. Comment identifier ces formes qui synthétisent l’organisation objective de l’écoumène? Parmi toutes les singularités qui différencient l’espace terrestre, lesquelles permettent de reconstituer la réalité de ces morphologies? S’agit-il de trames physiques tissées par la répartition des ressources de la nature, de découpages territoriaux qui en régissent l’accès? Ou s’agit-il de discontinuités plus fugaces, naissant par exemple de la rencontre fortuite d’une ombre portée et d’un obstacle dressé, de discontinuités qui font converger dans une communion esthétique l’attention des sujets, comme si leur était présentée l’idée d’un intérêt supérieur, transcendant leurs besoins personnels ? Des théories s’opposent. L’auteur les appelle devant le tribunal de la Critique. Les candidats y exposeront leurs prétentions afin que soient jugées leurs capacités respectives à construire la représentation objective de l’organisation du monde et à atteindre l’explication théorique.

The complex relationship of people to places has come under increasing scholarly scrutiny in recent years as acute global conditions of exile, displacement, and inflamed borders-to say nothing of struggles by indigenous peoples and cultural minorities for ancestral homelands, land rights, and retention of sacred places-have brought the political question of place into sharp focus. But to date, little attention has been paid to the ethnography of place, to how people actually live in, perceive, and invest with meaning the places they call home.In this compelling new volume, eight respected ethnographers explore and lyrically evoke the ways in which people experience, express, imagine, and know the places in which they live. Case studies range from the Apaches of Arizona’s White Mountains to the residents of backwoods “hollers” in Appalachia and the Kaluli people of New Guinea’s rainforests. As these writers confront the dilemmas and possibilities of an anthropological consideration of place, they make an important and moving contribution to our understanding of ourselves.
