Sinopse

Bridges That Changed explores the profound impact of bridges on society, arguing they are not just functional structures but agents of change. It examines how these marvels of engineering have shaped transportation, regional development, and cultural exchange throughout history. The book highlights how bridge construction has opened trade routes, connected isolated communities, and spurred urbanization.

 
The book delves into the evolution of bridge design, from ancient Roman aqueducts to modern suspension spans, showcasing innovations in materials science and construction. Case studies from around the world illustrate how bridges have become symbols of progress and human ingenuity. For example, certain bridges have influenced urban sprawl and regional economic growth, while others have impacted communities through accessibility and cultural shifts.

 
Organized into three parts, the book first traces bridge design's evolution, then examines influential case studies, and finally considers the future of bridge construction. By blending technical analysis with historical context and social commentary, Bridges That Changed offers a holistic understanding of bridges' role in shaping society and the built environment.

    Celia Paul's Letters to Gwen John centers on a series of letters addressed to the Welsh painter Gwen John (1876–1939), who has long been a tutelary spirit for Paul. John spent much of her life in France, making art on her own terms and, like Paul, painting mostly women. John's reputation was overshadowed during her lifetime by her brother, Augustus John, and her lover Auguste Rodin. Through the epistolary form, Paul draws fruitful comparisons between John's life and her own: their shared resolve to protect the sources of their creativity, their fierce commitment to painting, and the ways in which their associations with older male artists affected the public's reception of their work. 
     
     
     
    Letters to Gwen John is at once an intimate correspondence, an illuminating portrait of two painters, and a writer/artist's daybook, describing Paul's first exhibitions in America, her search for new forms, her husband's diagnosis of cancer, and the onset of the global pandemic. Paul, who first revealed her talents as a writer with her memoir, Self-Portrait, enters with courage and resolve into new unguarded territory—the artist at present—and the work required to make art out of the turbulence of life. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.
