  • Vivre-Le-Luberon-2017.Pdf
    PROVENCE Vivre le Luberon ‘Living the Luberon life’ is above all choosing an environment that allows you to master the art of living in Provence: strolling through a Provençal market, wandering picturesque narrow village streets to marvel at their historical splendour, taking in the sights and sounds of a game of pé- tanque or sipping a glass of wine with friends on the terrace of the village bistro, shaded by a century-old plane tree. The aim of this book is to provide you with some suggestions of authentic Luberon experiences that answer the many questions we are often asked: - What are the most beautiful villages in the area? - Is there a Provençal market tomorrow morning? - Could you suggest a good restaurant for tonight? More than just a guide, this book is an invitation to a week-long journey of discovery: of our vil- lages, our stunning landscapes, our charming properties and our Provençal markets. It’s a journey to the land of those men and women who have themselves made the choice to ‘live the Luberon life’ and to share it with others. Here, then, is an enchanting week-long itinerary: an incentive to discover our favourite spots… and who knows? Maybe you’ll find that magical, authentic place you were looking for just around the bend. « Vivre le Luberon », c’est choisir l’art de vivre en Provence… flâner sur un marché provençal, partir à la rencontre du patrimoine des villages à travers ses ruelles pittoresques, « écouter » jouer à la pétanque et, au bistro de la place prendre un verre entre amis sur une terrasse ombragée par un platane centenaire.

  • Architecture Vernaculaire À Pierre Sèche Au Xixe Siècle En Milieu Rural Héraultais
    Mémoire de Master 2 UFR III Sociétés, Art, Religions des Mondes Modernes et Contemporains Spécialité Histoire de l’art Architecture vernaculaire à pierre sèche au XIXe siècle en milieu rural héraultais : cabanes témoins Etude de cas dans les champs de garrigue et piémont d’Aumelas et de la Moure - communes de Saint-Pargoire et de Villeveyrac. Elodie FICHOU Sous la direction de M. Jean-François PINCHON, professeur des Universités Université Paul-Valéry - Montpellier III - 2010. REMERCIEMENTS Je tiens tout d’abord à remercier mon directeur de recherches, Monsieur Jean-François Pinchon, professeur des Universités, pour ses conseils méthodologiques, pour les nombreuses pistes de réflexion évoquées, mais aussi pour avoir vu l’intérêt et l’urgence d’étudier un tel sujet. Je tiens également à exprimer mes remerciements à Christian Lassure, fondateur et président du Centre d’Etudes et de Recherches sur l’Architecture, à l’association de construction et de restauration en pierre sèche Pierres d’Iris, aux propriétaires des parcelles étudiées, et aux « anciens » de Villeveyrac et Saint-Pargoire, pour leurs réponses à mes nombreuses questions. 2 AVANT-PROPOS Une première hypothèse pour un sujet de mémoire fut l’évocation d’une étude locale sur l’architecture de l’Abbaye cistercienne de Valmagne, - un exemple de ce qu’il est commun d’appeler la « grande architecture » -. Toutefois, lors de prospections aux alentours de cette abbaye, - que l’on appelle aussi « cathédrale des vignes » -, se mit rapidement en place le projet de s’intéresser à une autre forme d’architecture, certes tout aussi locale, mais néanmoins peu connue, plus modeste, dite « mineure », mais qui semblait pourtant tout aussi digne d’intérêt : l’architecture des « cabanes des vignes », ou cabanes en pierre sèche, environnant la dite abbaye.
