Gestes et visages. Nicolas Bouvier et le regard de l'autre

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:From early on, Nicolas Bouvier (Geneva, 1929-1998) dedicated himself to travel and writing. This paper proposes to investigate Bouvier’s look on alterity through his writings and photographs, two complementary forms of expression used to put out his concerns towards humankind. Furthermore, writing and photography bear witness to a philosophy of life which embraces and nurtures itself from the encounter of cultures. The gesture and the face play a primal role in the continuous process of unearthing human being's richness.
