Hassan Fathy's (1900-1989) ideas and philosophy opened opportunities and became a source of inspiration for architects to recognize and appreciate their traditional architecture. The response to Fathy’s approach from architects in the Developing World differed from that of Western architects. When Fathy’s architecture began to be widely known from the 1970s onward, these architects were influenced by his works, not only because of their links to the vernacular, but also because of their associations with Islamic architecture. The common response of these architects to Fathy’s architecture was that they regarded his buildings as prototypes for the contemporary Islamic architecture of the Middle East as his traditional forms and techniques epitomize their national and regional features. On the other hand, the response of Western architects to Fathy’s architecture and ideas varied. While some architects admired the new possibilities of building domes and vaults with a primitive material such as mud, others were inspired by Fathy’s philosophy and his humanistic approach. [more]

Bei ihrer Geburt schon fing es an... Jacob und Jill sind eigentlich ganz normale Jugendliche, wie jeder andere auch, abgesehen davon, dass sie zweieiige Zwillinge sind. Doch ihr junges Leben wird von bizarren Ereignissen überschattet. Ein merkwürdiger Großvater ist ja eher nichts besonderes, aber, wenn er einem eine völlig weltfremde Sprache beibringen will, in seinem Zimmer haufenweise Bücher über Magie herumstehen hat und plötzlich verschwindet und nur einen prophezeihungsartigen Brief hinterlässt, dann ist das doch etwas komisch - oder?! Außerdem ist es doch nicht normal, dass ein Kleinkind eine Stunde lang unter Wasser oder in der Erde vegraben überlebt?! Auf der Reise, herauszufinden, wer sie sind und was sie sind, stoßen sie auf eine alte Legende von einem Ordenszusammenschluss: Die Nachfahren der Drachenjäger -Story in Arbeit- Selbst-/Weiterverwendung nicht gestattet! ---------------------- Coverbild von nokiamen, Schwert mit Drache Some rights reserved Quell: www.piqs.de [more]

The name STEPHENS is of Greek derivation, and means a "crown". Just how it came to be adopted by the ancester of this family is unknown. The Welsh seldom used surnames at that period, one name usually sufficing; the son taking his father's name with the Welsh suffix "AP," meaning "son of"; thus STEPHENS AP EVANS, meaning Stephens the son of Evans, while the latter would be Evans Ap somebody else. W. H. Stephens, son of the aforesaid E. D. Stephens, once told the writer that the old family name was STEPHENSHIP. [more]
