  • Historique Du Parc Des Buttes-Chaumont
    A 175 Parc des Buttes-Chaumont Descriptif général HISTORIQUE DU PARC DES BUTTES-CHAUMONT Par Françoise HAMON, historienne, membre de l’équipe Grünig-Tribel Mai 2001. Publié en ligne avec l’autorisation de l’auteur. Reproduction interdite pour un usage commercial ou professionnel. Historique sous forme de trois chapitres présentés en annexe au descriptif général du concours. Annexe 1 : historique du projet des Buttes-Chaumont Annexe 2 : Liste de la documentation d’archives disponibles relative au parc des Buttes-Chaumont Annexe 3 : Chronologie du parc 1 A 175 Equipe GRUNIG-TRIBEL - Historique du Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, par Françoise HAMON, historienne. I. Annexe 1 : Historique du projet des Buttes Chau- mont a) La genèse Parc des Buttes-Chaumont Descriptif général ⇒ Les origines du jardin paysager Les traités anglais du XVIII˚ siècle consacrés aux jardins ne traitent que des parcs de châteaux et ne portent sur des questions d’esthétique : comment créer des paysages dignes d’être peints, c’est- à-dire pittoresques. En réalité, on cherche surtout, par une rupture subtile avec le paysage rural environnant, à mettre en valeur la demeure aristocratique ainsi que l’exige une société extrêmement hiérarchisée. Autant que les portraits de famille (conversation pieces) destinés à valoriser la lignée, l’aristocratie anglaise apprécie les portraits de maisons (voir le film Meurtre dans un jardin anglais) destinés à renforcer la présence territoriale de leur demeure et sa domination spatiale, dans une tradi- tion encore féodale. Le naturel du jardin paysager sera donc un naturel au second degré, identifiable comme naturel fabriqué. On peut ici jouer sur les mots car ce naturel fabriqué est fondé sur la présence de fabriques : outre les commodités qu’elle offre pour la vie sociale, la multiplication de ces pavillons d’agrément produit des fragments de paysages exotiques (à base de pagodes chinoises ou tentes turques) ou historiques (fondés sur le temple antique ou la ruine médiévale).

  • WALK 20 | Buttes Chaumont
    WALK 20 | Buttes Chaumont Start – Metro Station, Porte des Lilas Line 11, Tram 3b Approximate Length: 3.45 km 100 97 98 99 N U = Underground Metro Station From the Metro station or tram stop, follow Boulevard Sérurier a short distance to where it intersects with Passage des Mauxins. Here you will find a Wallace Fountain. Fountain 97 19 Boulevard Sérurier, 19th Arr. The Archives of Paris and a very large sports field are across the boulevard from the location of this fountain, which is surrounded by apartment buildings. 97 Boulevard Sérurier is a busy roadway with a green grass median down the middle on which tracks are laid for the tram route. After visiting the fountain, head northwest on Boulevard Sérurier staying to the left. Veer left onto Rue de Mouzaïa. Take a leisurely stroll down Rue de Mouzaïa to Botzaris. This area is full of little streets with charming townhouses, each of a different design. Some have fenced front gardens with entrance archways covered with vines. It is an enchanting, very quiet area where, it seems, only longtime residents saunter along the street. At Rue Botzaris you will be at an entrance to Parc des Buttes Chaumont. Enter the park and spend some time exploring its wonders or simply follow its walkway south to the exit at the opposite end of the park. The 61-acre park opened in 1867, and was built by Jean-Charles Alphand, who created all the major parks of the Napoleon III era. Jean- Charles Alphand managed to change an old quarry and waste dump into an artificial, perfectly manicured nature oasis inside a major European city.

  • Histoire Commune Buttes Chaumont
    25/10/2019 Michel BAURY LE SIÈGE DE PARIS 17 septembre 1870 – 28 janvier 1871 ________ Un événement dans le Parc des Buttes Chaumont Le 27 septembre 1870, soit dix jours seulement après le début du siège de Paris par les Prussiens de Bismarck, un incendie impressionnant se déclencha dans le Parc des Buttes Chaumont. Il fut aussitôt porté à la connaissance des Parisiens au moyen d’affiches placardées par la Mairie de Paris : cf. affiche ci-après. Louis Gallet, auteur dramatique et directeur de l’hôpital de la Salpêtrière, fut un témoin de cet incendie. Il écrit (p. 67), dans « Guerre et Commune - impressions d’un hospitalier - 1870-1871 », ouvrage publié chez Calmann Levy en 1898 : « Ce soir, nous revenions du bastion. Comme nous arrivions au sommet du boulevard de l’Hôpital au débouché de la place d’Italie, une énorme colonne de fumée noire s’est élevée à l’horizon, vers les Buttes-Chaumont, une fumée épaisse, aux lourdes volutes, avec des langues rouges dardées hors de sa masse. Imposant et terrifiant spectacle que celui de cette éruption gigantesque dans le ciel pur, comme si tout à coup un cratère venait de s’ouvrir dans les collines parisiennes, vomissant des laves incandescentes et de la fumée. Quand nous sommes rentrés, la torche gigantesque brûlait toujours ; elle brûle encore, moins haute, plus rouge sur le fond du ciel nocturne. Nous savons maintenant de quoi il s’agit, par des gens qui ont couru au feu. C’est le dépôt de pétrole des Buttes-Chaumont qui brûle. On a emmagasiné là, couverts de terre, une grande quantité de fûts d’essence.

  • 6 – En Savoir Plus Sur Les Parcs Romantiques
    Parlez-vous Paris ? 6 – En savoir plus sur les parcs romantiques Exercices 1 – Avant d’écouter : jardin à l’anglaise ou à la française ? Lisez le texte puis dites, pour chaque définition, de quel type de jardin il s'agit. Parcs romantiques et jardins à l’anglaise Se promener dans le parc des Buttes-Chaumont, c'est entrer dans son histoire très singulière, celle de la création d'un jardin à l'anglaise dans Paris. Historique du jardin à l’anglaise « Jardin » ou « parc », « romantique », « pittoresque » ou bien « à l’anglaise », les noms varient mais l’esprit est toujours le même. Ce type de parcs se répandent en France à partir de 1760 en réaction aux jardins classiques, à la française imaginés et créés par André Le Nôtre. Jusqu’au XVIIIe siècle, l’influence française s’est répandue en Angleterre à l’architecture et à l’art des jardins. Les compositions « à la française », issues du jardin à l’italienne, sont extrêmement structurées, comportent des parterres géométriques, des jeux de symétrie et de perspective. L’objectif est alors de domestiquer la nature et de démontrer la puissance humaine. La vogue de ce type de jardin prend fin en Angleterre sous l’influence d’une esthétique privilégiant la redécouverte de la nature sous son aspect sauvage. Esthétique du jardin à l’anglaise Le jardin à l’anglaise se caractérise par des chemins tortueux, une végétation en apparence non domestiquée donnant une impression naturelle. Les pelouses et les chemins tendent à imiter la nature, à s’inspirer de son côté sauvage et incitent à flâner.

  • Describe a Place You Might Have to Describe a Place
    Describe a Place You might have to describe a place. There are several possible questions about places. For example: 1. Describe a place you have visited. 2. Describe a historic place. 3. Describe a place you would like to visit. 4. Describe somewhere you have lived or would like to live. You can prepare a description of one place that you could use to answer all of these questions. For example, here are some ideas I had to describe Paris: Adjectives: it's exciting, busy, hectic, cosmopolitan, multicultural, unique. It's historic but modern at the same time, it's a thriving, prosperous city, it's fashionable, lively, fun. Activities: Paris is famous for its history, culture, art, museums. Tourists go there to see the Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral, Arc de Triomphe etc. You can have a relaxing stroll in the Parc des Buttes-Chaumont. It's also famous for its shows such as Moulin Rouge, its shops, restaurants and nightlife. There are endless things to see and do. Negatives: Paris is expensive, crowded, stressful, polluted. The metro is dirty, travel is overpriced and unpleasant. The cost of living is high (shopping, house prices etc.), the locals are always in a hurry and can be unfriendly, there are social problems (like you can find in most big cities). Look how I use these notes to answer this question: Describe a place you have lived or are living in now. You should say: Where it is What are the good things about it What are the bad things about it And say where you would like to live if you didn’t live there.
