Abstract

This series of essays outlines a number of case studies from Europe, North America, Australia and Asia and provides first hand accounts of the experiences that planners, architects and politicians have had in reshaping cities.

The reader will discover, through these multiple voices and views, the diverse forms of global cities, and will have a grasp of where the debate on urban design stands today, and where it may be going in the

Abstract

Only one out of ten early modern Europeans lived in cities. Yet cities were crucial nodes, joining together producers and consumers, rulers and ruled, and believers in diverse faiths and futures. They also generated an enormous amount of writing, much of which focused on civic life itself. But despite its obvious importance, historians have paid surprisingly little attention to urban discourse; its forms, themes, emphases and silences all invite further study. This book explores three dimensions of early modern citizens’ writing about their cities: the diverse social backgrounds of the men and women who contributed to urban discourse; their notions of what made for a beautiful city; and their use of dialogue as a literary vehicle particularly apt for expressing city life and culture. Amelang concludes that early modern urban discourse increasingly moves from oral discussion to take the form of writing. And while the dominant tone of those who wrote about cities continued to be one of celebration and glorification, over time a more detached and less judgmental mode developed. More and more they came to see their fundamental task as presenting a description that was objective.

Abstract

The last decade has seen the rise of urban design which has taken a central position in the new agendas for urban regeneration and renaissance. Urban design has moved from marginality to mainstream. The principles espoused by urban designers over the past thirty years are now accepted as key to a better urban environment and as we move towards greater sustainability, different ideas are emerging that are challenging some of the accepted urban design norms; urban design is at a watershed. Urban Design Futures presents essays from an international cast of authors to review pro

Abstract

In De architectuur van de stad introduceert Rossi een nieuwe wetenschap van de stad en het begrip 'architectonische tendens'. Het boek heeft in de ruim dertig jaar dat het bestaat een onuitwisbaar stempel gezet op de ontwikkeling van de architectuur van de twintigste eeuw. Het verzet zich, geheel in de geest van de tijd, tegen de modernen en in het bijzonder tegen de functionalistische reductie van de architectuur en de vervlakking van de stad tot een product van planningsprocessen. Rossi stelt een nieuwe werkwijze voor de analyse van de stad voor. Zij stoelt op de begrippen typologie en morfologie, en is verbonden met het ontwerp dat geenszins 'neutraal' is, maar wordt gedragen door een 'houding' ofwel een architectonische tendens. De architectuur van de stad heeft gedurende meer dan dertig jaar alle trends en modes overleefd en vormt een nog altijd actueel instrument voor hen die zich op de mogelijkheid van een intrinsieke rationaliteit van het architectonisch ontwerp beroepen.

Abstract

Middle Eastern cities cannot be lumped together as a single group. Rather they make up the urban kaleidoscope of the title, as the diversity of the six cities included here shows. They range from cities rich in tradition (Cairo, Tunis, and Baghdad), to neglected cities (Algiers and Sana'a), to newly emerging 'oil-rich' Gulf cities (Dubai). The authors are all young Arab scholars and architects local to the cities they describe, providing an authentic voice with an understanding no outsider could achieve. These contributors move away from an exclusively 'Islamic' reading of A
