| 总结: | In the framework of an ongoing reflection in various French institutions regarding the consolidation of architecture as an object of scientific research—in a process that is almost half a century old—, this paper questions the idea of modernity in architecture, and analyzes discourses that have explained the modernization of society through architecture. Initially, it describes the context that led to the creation of the CORDA network in the early 1970s: a public organization that fostered research "by and for" architecture. On the other hand, as protagonist of this process, the author of the present text develops (based on a concise "intellectual self-portrait") a hypothesis about the rupture between architects and intellectuals, a characteristic of the French panorama of the period, in clear contrast with the Italian case, for example. Thus, based on the analysis of episodes and specific cases that illustrate the diversity of relationships that have existed, for example, between the architect and the book, writers and architecture, or the building and the city, the article elucidates some aspects that, as a whole (and privileging a transdisciplinary and transnational reading), strengthen the renewal of the history of contemporary architecture as a disciplinary field. |
