摘要

My reading of Gauvin Alexander Bailey's hefty and beautifully illustrated tome on French colonial architecture was interrupted by my participation in a conference in one of France's former colonial capitals, Saint-Louis, Senegal. Given that the tide of the conference was Colonial Cities in Global Perspective, I expected to see some synergy with Bailey's book, but I also assumed there would be little obvious overlap.1 Only a couple of the papers delivered at the conference touched on architecture, and none with the range or depth of Bailey's discussions of ideology, buildings, and labor. However, I was struck by the ways that the physical landscape of Saint-Louis evoked the critical gaps that Bailey describes between French ideals, imagination, and reality. While the history of Saint-Louis continues to be touted for the sake of tourism and research, the city is also a resolutely Senegalese one where colonial architectural forms can be obscured by the practices of everyday life. One of Bailey's main goals is to trace the disjuncture between French attempts to glorify state and church through architecture on one hand and the violent realities of colonialism on the other. His first couple of chapters outline French ideologies about urbanism and architecture. Chapters 3-7 then examine the history of builders, contractors, and artisans, including Amerindians, Africans, and enslaved and free people of color, as well as French civilian and royal architects. Chapters 8-11 focus on urbanism and planned cities, In the final section of the book (chapters 12-16), Bailey looks closely at changing secular and ecclesiastical architecture in the French colonial context, including the development of vernacular styles such as the open gallery or veranda that assumed particular cultural meaning and significance in France's Atlantic empire. On several occasions during the conference in Senegal, certain buildings in the city immediately reminded me and other conference participants of buildings in New Orleans. Bailey puts into deeper perspective what is often merely a casual association.
