作者簡介︰

勒•柯布西耶（1887-1965年），20世紀最杰出的建築大師，同時也是優秀的畫家、城市 規劃專家和作家。他豐富多變的建築作品和激情睿智的建築哲學深刻地影響了現代城市的面貌和人們的生活方式。代表作有︰薩伏伊別墅（1928-1930 年）、馬賽公寓（1946-1952年）和朗香教堂（1950-1953年）等。集中體現他的建築思想的著作是《走向新建築》（1923年）。"

1911年5月，年輕的畫家、建築師柯布西耶開始了他為期五個月的東方旅行，歷經東歐、巴爾干、土耳其、希臘和意大利。此書便是這次旅行的記錄。全書貫穿著他對東方藝術和生活之美的直觀發現、熱情贊嘆和深邃思索。

這可能是柯布西耶的第一本書 ，也是他逝世前要求再版的最後一本書(錯誤--- 本書死後才初版)。柯布西耶偉大的藝術征程就從這里開始。體現在他建築設計中的東方元素，對人與自然和諧關系的強調，以及對建築象征性的理解，都可以從本書找到最初的原點。

2年前中國出版從法文本翻譯之中文本。不料，出版單位可能完全不知道有”好一級”的翻譯本（圖數量可能是兩倍；最重要的是”校與注”），所以錯誤不少（譬如說重要的「聖山」一章：把登山關卡地翻譯成「鎮」 (設鎮應是數十年之後)；無法確實指作者引Pisa某修道院的”諾亞醉酒”之璧畫…….）。

Journey to the East

Le Corbusier

Edited by Ivan Zaknic

Translated by Ivan Zaknic

Preface by Ivan Zaknic

This is the legendary travel diary that the twenty-four-year-old Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (Le Corbusier) kept during his formative journey through Southern, Central, and Eastern Europe in 1911. In a flood of highly personal impressions and visual notations, it records his first contact with the vernacular architecture that would preoccupy him for the rest of his life and his first sight of the monuments he most admired: the mosque complexes, the Acropolis, and the Parthenon. Le Corbusier himself suppressed publication of this book during his lifetime; after his death, the text was released as "an unprefaced last confession."

Journey to the East can be read as a bildungsroman by a young author who would go on to become one of the greatest architects of the twentieth century. It is very much a story of awakening and a voyage of discoveries, recording a seven-month journey that took Le Corbusier from Berlin through Vienna, Budapest, Bucharest, Istanbul, Athos, Athens, Naples, and Rome, among other places. Le Corbusier considered this journey the most significant of his life; the compulsion he felt to record images and impressions established a practice he would continue for the rest of his career. For the next five decades, he would fill notebooks with ideas and sketches; he never stopped deriving inspiration from the memories of his first contact with the East, making this volume as much a historical document as a personal confession and diary. Ivan Zaknic's highly regarded translation was first published by The MIT Press in 1987 but has been unavailable for many years.

Journey to the East

Le Corbusier

Edited by Ivan Zaknic

Translated by Ivan Zaknic and Nicole Pertuiset

This is the legendary travel diary that the 24-year-old Charles-Edouard Jeanneret (Le Corbusier) kept during his first journey through central and eastern Europe. In a flood of highly personal impressions and visual notations, it records his first contact with the vernacular architecture that would preoccupy him for the rest of his life and with the monuments he most admired, the mosque complexes, the Acropolis, and the Parthenon.

"'Very often, I left the Acropolis burdened by a heavy premonition, not daring to imagine that one day I would have to create.' Such words, are moving from any aspiring architect; from Le Corbusier they are an inspiration."

-- Progessive Architecture

An this centenary year [1987] of his birth, many books are being published about Le Corbusier but none offers more insight into his character than this book from his own hand ... Every designer speculates at one time or another just what attributes other than talent are needed for success. In the case of the young Le Corbusier this travel journal reveals... extraordinary ego, energy, curiosity, and passion."

Reviews

"Le Corbusier was one of the greatest architects of the 20th century, if not the greatest in terms of influence and fecundity. This is the first book he ever wrote, never before published in English and only partially published in French in 1966, long after it was written in 1911. The translation, by an authority on the architect, is marvelously direct and straightforward, conveying the strength and poeticism of the original. The book records the young architect's vivid impressions on his first 'Grand Tour' not of London, Paris, and Vienna, as one might expect, but of Dresden, Prague, Budapest, Bucharest, Brindisi, Pompeii, and, finally, Athens, where before the aura of the Parthenon he became enthralled as an architect. A thrilling visual and verbal document of early modern architecture."

-- Library Journal

"Twenty-four-year-old Le Corbusier (born Charles-Édouard Jeanneret) kept a travel diary as he roamed central and Eastern Europe, visiting ancient monuments and soaking up native architecture. His journal is a blend of overripe, lyrical prose, incisive impressions and thoughts on architecture and landscape. His trips to the Parthenon and Mount Athos, which triggered his decision to become an architect, make intense reading. He writes movingly of Anatolian vistas that express the 'lofty, poetic Turkish soul' and dubs the traditional Turkish wooden house 'an architectural masterpiece.' Even more revealingly, this neoclassical innovator admires Romanian peasant houses for their dazzling white stucco and adaptation of classical elements. The first book Le Corbusier wrote, Journey was published posthumously in France in 1966. This first English translation is most welcome."
