  • Gardens of Provence
    American Horticultural Society Travel Study Program GARDENS OF PROVENCE October 1–10, 2021 WITH AHS HOST SHERRAN BLAIR, GUIDE AMY KUPEC LARUE, AND TOUR LEADER VERITY SMITH OF SPECIALTOURS Dear Friends of the American Horticultural Society, I invite you accompany us to one of the world’s finest destinations for horticulture, viticulture and gastronomy: “Gardens of Provence,” will take place from October 1 to 10, 2021. Here are just a few highlights of a tour chock-filled with extraordinary experiences. Would you agree that private gardens offer surprises and delights around every turn? They never cease to inspire me, and we’ll be treated to several on this tour. We’ll be fortunate to meet a number of enthusiastic and knowledgeable garden owners and designers, including several expatriate British hosts. Our first stay is in Nice, a picture-perfect destination on the Côte d’Azur, with a rich history, combining natural beauty with Old World opulence and a vibrant artistic scene. Since France is synonymous with superb cuisine, you can be assured that our meals will be nothing short of excellent. For example, we’ll take lunch at the famed La Colombe d’Or in Saint-Paul-de-Vence. What would a tour of southern France be without a visit to Grasse, the world’s perfume capital? It will be a feast for the senses. We’ll be surrounded by fields of lavender, jasmine, and roses. The Villa Fort France is an artist’s garden where we’ll find an intriguing harmony of shape, color and texture. Our second stop is in Aix, known for its outdoor markets, food and leisurely pace.

    Rochester Bridge Trust Learning about Bridges Let’s learn about bridges! The Rochester Bridge Trust was founded in 1399 to provide a crossing over the River Medway in Kent. The Trust still provides free bridges today. The Trust is passionate about bridge building and wants to encourage young people to find out more about bridges and become as enthusiastic as we are! Our education kit contains loads of information, fun activities and interesting facts. You can work through the whole kit which contains a school term’s worth of activities or just try a session or two. It’s up to you! Content by Sue Threader BEng CEng MICE 1 Printed from the Rochester Bridge Trust Learning about Bridges, a FREE resource designed by Guy Fox Limited. Copyright © 2014, Rochester Bridge Trust www.rbt.org.uk Duplication is permitted for educational use only. About the Rochester Bridge Trust The first bridge at Rochester was built by the Romans soon after the invasion of Britain in AD43. Once the Romans left, their bridge was maintained by the local people of Kent until the 14th century. In 1381, the River Medway froze solid and, when the thaw came, the ice and floodwater swept away the Roman Bridge. Two benefactors built a new stone bridge one hundred yards upstream which was opened in September 1391. Their names were Sir John de Cobham and Sir Robert Knolles. Together the benefactors also persuaded their friends and acquaintances to make donations of land and money for the perpetual maintenance of Rochester Bridge. In 1399, King Richard II granted letters patent which allowed the Rochester Bridge Trust to be set up to care for the bridge and its property.

  • Wine Cooperatives in South of France,Saint-Rémy-De
    Wine Cooperatives In South Of France In France every region has their own wine cooperative, called cave (pronounced with a soft a, like ‘ahhh’). In Provence, you can find caves in almost every village, large or small. As you explore the villages of the South of France, we recommend stopping in for a browse and tasting wherever you can. When you buy from the local wine cave, you are truly getting a taste of the terrrior of the region. Buy local, taste local! And the adage – what grows together, goes together could not be more true. Wine from the village, cheese from the village, bread from the village bakery – could there be a more wonderfully local, Provencal experience than that? Wine cooperatives started in the late 1800s, mostly out of economic necessity, and continue to flourish today. A wine cooperative essentially consists of a building with winemaking facilities and a wine shop. During the harvest period, called vendanges, local farmers bring grapes from their land and either make their own wine, or pool their harvest with those of their neighbors to make a local wine. There are more wine grape growers than winemakers and not every grower has the desire, skill or finances to be a winemaker. Growers then hire or appoint a winemaker who utilizes the wine cave’s equipment and resources. The winemaker selects the best grapes grown under the best conditions and makes a wine with the input of the collective, reflecting the best qualities of the region’s grapes and land. The wine is then sold by the cooperative, with proceeds shared proportionately among the growers.

Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document. *** Abstract: This article challenges the prevailing opinion that the inhabitants of Gallia Transalpina were largely unaffected by Roman hegemony in the late second and early first centuries . The monumental development of the site of Glanum in the late second century shows clearly that the local elite were reacting to, and interacting with, their Roman conquerors. This relationship is not immediately obvious because the style of the architecture dating to the second century is described as Hellenistic rather than Roman. However, I argue that this incongruity should not affect the perception of change in the area. Given the current emphasis in the scholarly literature on the participation of local elites in the process of culture change, what matters is not whether the monuments are ‘Hellenistic’ or ‘Roman’, but rather the motivation and timing of their production.

    VIVE LES PONTS ! par Edgard Thirion VIVE LES PONTS ! par Edgard Thirion À Éliane, mon épouse À nos 3 fils, Frédéric, Jérôme et Guillaume, armaturiers de métier, à qui j’ai transmis le virus des ponts À tous les ouvriers et ingénieurs, anonymes et célèbres, sans qui tout cela n’aurait pu exister La couverture et la page de garde de ce livre présentent des signes gravés dans la pierre, relevés sur le pont médiéval de Pont-Saint-Esprit (Gard, France). C’est le plus vieux de tous les ponts sur le Rhône reliant la Provence au Languedoc. Il a longtemps constitué un point de passage obligé sur le fleuve. Il est composé de 26 arches (19 grandes et 7 petites). Sa construction fut voulue et décidée par le frère de saint Louis, le comte de Poitiers et de Toulouse Alphonse de Poitiers. Elle commença en 1265 pour s’achever en 1309. D’après l’architecte Viollet-le-Duc, elle fut confiée à la branche pontife des Hospitaliers (la branche des constructeurs de ponts, formée par ces moines-soldats pour faciliter les pèlerinages). Aurais-je autant d’amour et de passion pour vous conter “Les Ponts” que j’en ai eu pour les construire ? AVERTISSEMENT Cet essai n’est pas une encyclopédie exhaustive sur l’art des ponts. Il constitue un regard passionné, curieux et pédagogique sur ces ouvrages qui ont marqué ma vie professionnelle et personnelle. édito Le Pont ! Cette ligne, ce trait, cette lame de sabre qui permet le passage du Nord au Sud, de l’Orient à l’Occident.
