Venice Charter的片段解讀還有那個傳說中的屋頂....

前提:
其實現在是在圖書館看著ILL借來的一本MIT PhD thesis、其實在講日本妻籠宿保存的事情(雖然現在作的事情跟保存沒什麼關係,因為該論文作者之前發表了一篇文章跟我關注的史料有關係,所以就想順便拜讀一下她的博論)

書裡面提到了Venice Charter對於保存的關係,該論文作者在書裡明白指出"The Charter favored the retention of the existing state of a building, as opposed to restorative reconstruction of a previous or original form. It discouraged the destruction of later, non-period additions in favor of retaining of original materials wherever feasible, as an important part of the historical record. The Charter therefore made explicit policy statements about the definition of the fundamental theoretical concern of any preservation effort, the authenticity of historical experience. The authors of the Charter affirmed that authenticity was linked to a physical or material authenticity, that is, the presence of original building materials, and visual evidence of age." 就我的理解來翻譯的話,他們不鼓勵人家拆除尚可使用但是後來的增建添加物、尤其是這些添加物可被視為重要的歷史性紀錄。因為這些東西可以作為一種時代的視覺證物。
我只是想到那個傳說中的香蕉厝的屋頂....應該已經不在了吧~~
