H. De Bot
Architecture des gares en Belgique Tome I, 1835-1914
Paperback, 240 p., 210 x 297 mm. ISBN 9782503521619. A l'issue de la premiere Guerre mondiale, la Belgique decouvre son reseau ferroviaire devaste. Les gares, le materiel roulant et la signalisation se trouvent en piteux etat. Une penible reconstruction s'entame alors. L'infrastructure offre un tableau proche de la destruction totale, surtout dans l'ouest du pays. Elle ne sera retablie dans son ensemble que vers 1925. Le reseau belge s'etoffe d'ailleurs de lignes posees par les belligerants pour des raisons strategiques. Du reste, le traite de Versailles octroie a la Belgique les cantons de l'Est, et la Vennbahn, de construction prussienne, s'integre au maillage national. Dans un premier temps, l'Etat, puis la SNCB a partir de 1926, construisent essentiellement des gares de type traditionnel. Les premiers batiments modernistes n'apparaissent qu'a la fin des annees trente. Le remplacement de gares detruites s'impose a nouveau apres la seconde Guerre mondiale, tandis que s'active le chantier de la Jonction Nord-Midi. Le roi Baudouin l'inaugure en 1952. Mais, les architectes des annees cinquante se detournent du courant moderniste. Sevit alors une tendance conservatrice d'esprit regionaliste. Si au cours des annees soixante, le modele de l'Expo '58 suscite quelques projets audacieux, les deux decennies qui suivent ne produisent plus qu'une architecture fonctionnelle exempte d'inspiration. L'electrification du reseau, consecutive a la crise energetique du milieu de annees septante, engloutit tous les moyens. Quelques exuberantes creations postmodernes caracterisent les annees nonante. La transparence expressive de gares telles que Hal et Liege-Guillemins ouvre peut-etre la voie a un nouveau courant excentrique. Ce deuxieme tome termine l'inventaire des stations. Comme dans le tome premier, les illustrations invitent a la lecture. Le recours aux cartes postales illustrees se poursuit d'ailleurs jusque vers 1930. Leur succedent les photos de l'importante collection des Archives de la SNCB, completee au besoin par celles de passionnes du rail. L'ouvrage compte 208 pages et est illustre de 350 photos, dont 85 en couleur. Language : French.

His family ran Lynch Brothers, a firm that traded with and ran shipping lines in Persia and Mesopotamia. Lynch had already traveled widely in those regions before their geographical closeness to Armenia, together with the growing importance of the "Armenian Question", attracted him to Armenia. Lynch later became a member of the British Parliament. He died suddenly in November 1913 of pneumonia. Lynch's two-volume work "Armenia: Travels and Studies" was published in London in 1901, and remains the definitive account in English of Armenia before the 1915 Deportation. An Armenian translation of the book was published in London in 1902, and another in Constantinople in 1913. In modern Turkey, the book was on the official list of banned books until at least the late 90s. "Armenia: Travels and Studies" was the result of two extensive visits he made to the Turkish and the Russian-controlled areas of Armenia - the first visit lasting from August 1893 to March 1894, and the second from May to September 1898. Lynch visited Ani ruins in October 1893 and his account of that visit, with the accompanying photographs, is reproduced below. His footnotes are on a separate page. The border graphic on this page is based on the decorative band on the binding of Lynch's book, was inspired by the vine-scroll relief on the church of the Holy Cross on Acht'amar island.".
