Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
FUTURE OF THE PAST The historical events in the early centuries of the Srivijaya kingdom that ruled over Malay Archipelago and the arrival of colonising nations afterwards are examples of the region’s interlinked past. It forged a historic root for cooperation within the countries in the region now under ASEAN. Consideration about the region’s past record is what strongly tugged our editorial team’s thoughts. History—or we could say the “past”—inevitably constructs the present and, consequently, our future. As we asked some of the people in the architectural practice regarding the role of the past , many hold that the past is an important aspect that we could learn from to live our present life. ARCHINESIA Bookgazine features built projects curated by our team. Among the projects, we look at the use of traditional building materials in Katamama Hotel by andramatin and the House in Cornwall Garden by CHANG Architects which belongs to a family of many generations. Can we take the past as something that bounds us, or builds us? We leave it for the reader to decide.

Image, Imagination and Imaginarium
Author: Lu Pan
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811596743
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 423
Book Description
This book explores five cases of monument and public commemorative space related to World War II (WWII) in contemporary China (Mainland), Hong Kong and Taiwan, all of which were built either prior to or right after the end of the War and their physical existence still remains. Through the study on the monuments, the project illustrates past and ongoing controversies and contestations over Chinese nation, sovereignty, modernism and identity. Despite their historical affinities, the three societies in question, namely, Mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, vary in their own ways of telling, remembering and forgetting WWII. These divergences are not only rooted in their different political circumstances and social experiences, but also in their current competitions, confrontations and integrations. This book will be of great interest to historians, sinologists and analysts of new Asian nationalism.
