La representación de la arquitectura moderna : la villa Stein-de Monzie en "L'Oeuvre Complète" de Le Corbusier y Pierre Jeanneret : influencia de la visión cinematográfica

Esta tesis doctoral trata de investigar cuánto hubo de presencia del cine en el pensamiento de Le Corbusier y Pierre Jeanneret, a la hora de acometer la publicación y maquetación de las páginas dedicadas a la Villa Stein-de Monzie en Garches, en “Le Corbusier et Pierre Jeanneret. Oeuvre Complète 1910-1929”. Qué mecanismos cinematográficos pusieron en juego, cuando montaban las páginas de L´Oeuvre Complète. Más que encontrar elementos cinematográficos utilizados de manera directa; el objetivo de esta tesis es profundizar en los mecanismos, procedimientos, sistemas de generación de ideas a lo largo del proceso de proyecto; en las maneras de percibir y experimentar los espacios, o de observar las formas. El armazón lo compone por lo tanto el análisis del modo en que Le Corbusier representa la villa en L´Oeuvre Complète, sus intenciones y la función pedagógica de este modo de representar; así como sus diferencias con respecto a lo realmente construido. Una realidad elaborada sobre un tablero; maquetando su representación, eligiendo los fragmentos, y componiendo las láminas (cercana a la de un director de cine). La justificación del objeto a estudiar se plantea en el primer capítulo: L´Oeuvre Complète (1937), la reedición en francés, alemán e inglés de la primera edición en alemán, Ihr Gesamtes Werk (1929).Se establecen las intenciones de Le Corbusier de que se convierta en un modelo de Tratado de Arquitectura Moderna, eminentemente visual. Se estudian los mecanismos formales y geométricos de composición del libro, y el modo en el que L´Oeuvre Complète debe ser leída. El desarrollo de los siguientes capítulos (del 2 al 9) recoge el método principal de investigación de esta tesis, basado en una lectura longitudinal, crítica y sistemática, a partir de la observación atenta de la representación de la villa Stein-de Monzie en Garches, en las páginas nº 140 a 149 de L´Oeuvre Complète. Se efectúa mediante un desarrollo lineal y secuenciado, como si de un guión cinematográfico se tratara. Cada capítulo describe y analiza cada uno de los diferentes fragmentos, permitiendo al mismo tiempo enlazar temas de interés que ayudan a comprender aspectos de la villa de Garches, de su concepción en la intensa labor de proyecto (con numerosas variantes y propuestas), e incluso de su aparición en el cine. Además, la tesis arroja luz sobre unos documentos bastante desconocidos: las láminas de la colección del Museo Cooper-Hewitt de nueva York, para la villa de Garches. El análisis de la presentación de la villa de Garches en L´Oeuvre Complète, constata que para Le Corbusier, el fragmento, per se, ha de ser perfecto, produciendo la máxima emoción. Como un prestidigitador, Le Corbusier los manipula, o le niega información al espectador mediante el uso de la elipsis en el relato. Los textos concatenan las imágenes, soportan el hilo de la narración. Los bocetos quieren siempre seducir al espectador: son dibujos que rezuman vitalidad, con una técnica muy cercana a la ligne claire del cómic. Las plantas son un laboratorio para demostrar su jerarquía y su libertad de composición; eliminando elementos, distorsionando la valoración de líneas y apareciendo algún elemento no ejecutado. Los alzados, esquemáticos y abstractos, demuestran el control de la geometría para garantizar la emoción. Las fotografías son controladas en su fase de captura (elección del punto de vista, cuidada puesta en escena de los objetos, composición con la luz, uso de las sombras para la aparición del fuera de campo); pero también en la fase de postproducción y edición, donde son cortadas, alisadas superficies, borrando o dibujando elementos sobre ellas. El montaje compone asimismo una representación dinámica, fragmentada y múltiple de la villa. Como sucede en el cine, los fragmentos sólo encuentran su razón de ser una vez son re-creados y montados en la cabeza del espectador. La falta de raccord es un mecanismo buscado por Le Corbusier, trasladando a la representación una de las primordiales características de la villa de Garches: su permanente dualidad simultánea. Todos estos mecanismos son desplegados por Le Corbusier, para ofrecer una versión idealizada de la villa, que recoja todas las virtudes de los distintos proyectos e incorpore el factor tiempo. ABSTRACT This doctoral thesis tries to investigate how much the cinema affected Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret´s thoughts, at the moment of undertaking the publication and layout of the pages dedicated to the villa Stein-de Monzie in Garches, in the book “Le Corbusier et Pierre Jeanneret. Oeuvre Complète 1910-1929”. Which cinematographic mechanisms they brought into play, when they were mounting those pages. Instead of finding cinematographic elements, used directly; the aim of this thesis is to go deeply into the mechanisms, methods, systems of generation of ideas along the project process; into the ways of seeing and feeling the spaces, or of watching the forms. The body is composed therefore by the analysis of the way in which Le Corbusier represents the villa in L'Oeuvre Complète, his intentions and the pedagogic function of that way of representation; as well as its differences with the real built villa. One reality elaborated on a board; laying out its representation, choosing the fragments, and composing the sheets (near to the work of a director of cinema). The justification of the object to studying appears in the first chapter: L'Oeuvre Complète (1937), the reissue in French, German and English of the first edition in German, Ihr Gesamtes Werk (1929). This chapter shows the intentions of Le Corbusier of turning the book into a model of modern architecture, highly visual. The formal and geometric mechanisms of composition of the book are studied, and the way in which L'Oeuvre Complète must be read. The development of the following chapters (from 2 to 9) gathers the principal method of investigation of this thesis, based on a longitudinal, critical and systematic reading; from the watching of the representation of the villa Stein-de Monzie in Garches, in the pages nr. 140 to 149 of L'Oeuvre Complète. It is carried out by a linear and sequenced development, as a cinematographic script. Every chapter describes and analyzes each of the different fragments, allowing at the same time to connect interesting issues that help to understand aspects of the villa in Garches, of its conception in the intense project process (with numerous variants and designs), and even of its appearance in films. Also, the thesis throws light on some unknown documents: the sheets of the collection of the Museum Cooper-Hewitt in New York, for the villa in Garches. The analysis of the presentation of the villa in Garches in L'Oeuvre Complète, proves that for Le Corbusier, the fragment, itself, has to be perfect, getting the maximum emotion. As a prestidigitator, Le Corbusier manipulates them, or denies information to the spectator by means of the use of the ellipsis in the story. The texts concatenate the images, support the thread of the story. The sketches always attempt to seduce the spectator: they are drawings that leak vitality, with lines very near to the ligne claire of the cómic. The plans are a laboratory to demonstrate their hierarchy and their freedom of composition; deleting elements, distorting the thickness of lines and showing some not executed elements. The elevations, schematic and abstract, shows the control of the geometry to guarantee the emotion in architecture. The pictures are controlled in their instant of capture (choice of the point of view, elegant mise-en-scène of the objects, composition with light, use of the shadows for the appearance of out of vision); but also in the postproduction and edition time, when surfaces are cut, smoothing, erasing or drawing elements in them. The montage composes in the same way a dynamic, fragmented and multiple representation of the villa. As in the films, the fragments only find their raison d'être once they have been re-created and mounted into the mind of the viewer. The continuity error is a mechanism allowed by Le Corbusier, transfering to the representation in the book one of the basic characteristics of the villa in Garches: its constant simultaneous duality. All these methods are displayed by Le Corbusier, to offer an idealized version of the villa, which gathers all the virtues of the different projects, and incorporates the time factor.

Resilience through Adversity: A narrative case study of students' experiences of expulsion from school

Expulsion from school is life changing. This single event can alter the trajectory of a student's life--for better or for worse. How life changes is unique for each individual student. Risk and protective factors that impact an individual student's resilience determine the level of positive or negative outcomes experienced as a result of expulsion. Educators have the opportunity to take advantage of this disruption in students' education to improve the trajectory of students' lives. However, without thoughtful intervention from caring educators, this interruption in students' education may have an irreparable destructive impact on students' future. The purpose of this study was to understand the expulsion experience from the point of view of the student in order to represent this critical stakeholder group in future policy and program development, implementation, and decision-making. Students' narratives are a means for members of the educational community to access students' experiences and perceptions in order to understand the impact of expulsion on students' lives. Students' perspectives are presented through thick description in this narrative case study. The experience of these eight students is evidence that expulsion can change students' lives in a positive way. Knowing this, responsible educators must develop interventions for expelled students that channel the positive life-changing potential of this experience. Educators must develop interventions focused on bringing forth protective factors that are documented to increase resilience and to make students less susceptible to the risks inherent in removing them from school. Recommendations for educators and policy-makers are presented to assist educators in preventing expulsion and improving educational and socio-emotional outcomes for expelled students.

Narrative Therapy and Stigma Management: Restorying the Patient Experience of Being Told, “You have MS

The purpose of this investigation was to determine if the way patients are informed of the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) affects their feelings about themselves as people with MS. Building on illness narrative, I hoped to examine how patients “storied” their experience of being informed of the diagnosis of MS and whether this “storying” had a lasting impact on their self-concept. The alternative would be that no connection exists between how a neurologist informs a patient of the diagnosis and how a person makes sense of their diagnosis and life with MS. Due to study limitations (e.g., small sample size, threat of response bias), the results are unclear about whether the way in which the news is broken has a lasting effect on patients' perceptions. However, review of the literature and patient responses indicate that there is a need for psychological intervention when patients are diagnosed with MS.

Reinterpreting Coatlicue : the Sculptural Narrative of Defeat at the Shrine of Huitzilopochtli

"Images of the decapitated, dismembered female warrior Coyolxauhqui, a main character in the Mexica mythology of Huitzilopochtli, figured prominently in Imperial Mexica sculptural campaigns at the Templo Mayor. However, monoliths of a terrifying, dismembered female from the shrine have traditionally been identified as Huitzilopochtli’s nurturing mother Coatlicue, or permutations of goddesses. Such studies do not adequately address why these sculptures depict mutilated beings whose characteristics are antithetical to Coatlicue’s appropriate female behavior depicted in myths and images"

Sex, sin and salvation : a case study of the narrative pictorial cycle of Saint Mary the Egyptian at Bourges Cathedral

This paper studies the narrative stained glass cycle of the Life of Saint Mary the Egyptian at Bourges Cathedral within the context of prevailing—and often conflicting--civil and ecclesiastical attitudes toward sex, sexual sin, and prostitution in early thirteenth century France. Although the Church maintained that sexual sin was mortal sin, civil records suggest the public was skeptical. Through the example of a penitent harlot, this window, both structurally and in thematic content, attempts to map a doctrinally appropriate path from sexual sin to purity of spirit—and salvation—through complete submission to the Church and its clergy.

Fleshing Out and Losing Flesh: The Decomposing Corpse as Narrative Object in American Hardboiled Detective Fiction

This dissertation examines the corpse as an object in and of American hardboiled detective fiction written between 1920 and 1950. I deploy several theoretical frames, including narratology, body-as-text theory, object relations theory, and genre theory, in order to demonstrate the significance of objects, symbols, and things primarily in the clever and crafty work of Dashiell Hammett (1894-1961) and Raymond Chandler (1888-1959), but also touching on the writings of their lesser known accomplices. I construct a literary genealogy of American hardboiled detective fiction originating in the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, compare the contributions of classic or Golden Age detective fiction in England, and describe the socio-economic contexts, particularly the predominance of the “pulps,” that gave birth to the realism of the Hardboiled School. Taking seriously Chandler’s obsession with the art of murder, I engage with how authors pre-empt their readers’ knowledge of the tricks of the trade and manipulate their expectations, as well as discuss the characteristics and effect of the inimitable hardboiled style, its sharpshooting language and deadpan humour. Critical scholarship has rarely addressed the body and figure of the corpse, preferring to focus instead on the machinations of the femme fatale, the performance of masculinity, or the prevalence of violence. I cast new light on the world of hardboiled detective fiction by dissecting the corpse as the object that both motivates and de-composes (or rots away from) the narrative that makes it signify. I treat the corpse as an inanimate object, indifferent to representation, that destabilizes the integrity and self-possession, as well as the ratiocination, of the detective who authors the narrative of how the corpse came to be. The corpse is all deceptive and dangerous surface rather than the container of hidden depths of life and meaning that the detective hopes to uncover and reconstruct. I conclude with a chapter that is both critical denouement and creative writing experiment to reveal the self-reflexive (and at times metafictional) dimensions of hardboiled fiction. My dissertation, too, in the manner of hardboiled fiction, hopes to incriminate my readers as much as enlighten them.
