During Denmark's 'Golden Age' (c. 1800 to 1850), Copenhagen came into being as a modern city on the urban-cultural level. This book examines this period in the city's history, just before the establishment of some of the main features of the modernisation of cities associated with industrialisation, such as street lighting, sewer systems, and working class quarters. it assess the work of the most prominent architect of the period, C.F. Hansen in transforming the city physically, before moving on to consider writings by three citizens of Copenhagen, the philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, the noveli

A chronicle, a memoir, a reflection on the pandemic, and a cultural analysis of the new spatial, social, and epistemological forms that have arisen with it, this volume weaves together cultural history, aesthetics, and urban and digital studies. It looks at the particular ways in which the possibilities for touch, touching and being touched, both physically and affectively, are reconfigured by the pandemic. How are love, care, and humanity's complex relationships with technology and nature played out in the interval between abandoned city centres and digitally mediated gatherings? How can we comprehend the reconfiguration of relationships through the human response to the pandemic as an experience that concerns us all but affects each of us in different ways? How do we think through the technological and material dependencies that the pandemic situation establishes? And how does this allow us to imagine the world beyond the pandemic-both utopian and dystopian? The essays in this book explore the new forms of intimacy and distance that are developing in the wake of COVID-19, offering a distinctive, topical analysis in the fields of urban and digital studies.

"This is a book about towers. It is a book about monumental architecture erect with symbolism; it is a book about the data flows that keep our lives afloat in the early twenty-first century. It is a book about the Eiffel Tower (1889); it is a book about the One World Trade Tower on the Ground Zero site in New York City (2014); but it is also a book about the Twin Towers (1970/1) that no longer exist. It is a tale of two cities, Paris and New York, haunted by recent terror attacks, but it is also a story of how the rest of the world remains latent in these urban topographies, not least because of the digital technology that pervades them. A Tale of Two Towers investigates the relationship between, on the one hand, prodigious architecture imbued with heavy power symbolism, and on the other hand, the digital communication, which is invisibly transmitted via the tips of these towers and through wires and cables in the ground beneath them yet which often have more direct impact on our lives than the physical symbolic edifices themselves. This is a book that takes its starting point in the apparent disproportionality between the architectural language of power, which towers above us in the urban landscape, and their often symbolically understated function as transmitters of wireless information. It is thus a book about attempts to take solace in potent architectural form. Yet as we move from the birth of the Eiffel Tower up until the present day, we expose these efforts as being increasingly emptied of cultural content and indicative of new and arguably unarticulated, calm, and latent regimes of cultural signification" --

"The Routledge Research Companion to Landscape Architecture considers landscape architecture's increasingly important cultural, aesthetic and ecological role today. The volume reflects topical concerns in theoretical, historical, philosophical and practice-related research in landscape architecture - research that reflects our relationship with what has traditionally been called 'nature'. It does so at a time when questions about the use of global resources and understanding the links between human and non-human worlds are more crucial than ever. The twenty-five chapters of this edited collection bring together significant positions in current landscape architecture research under five broad themes - History, Sites and Heritage, City and Nature, Ethics and Sustainability, Knowledge and Practice - supplemented with a discussion of landscape architecture education. Prominent contributors from landscape architecture and adjacent fields including Tom Avermaete, Jane Wolff, Gareth Doherty, Matthew Gandy, Christophe Girot, Ottmar Ette and Anne Whiston Spirn, as well as up-and-coming researchers, seek to widen, fuel and frame critical discussion in this growing area. They do so by investigating recurrent motifs as well as slippages and ruptures in the historical development of landscape architecture and by paying particular attention to current concerns. A significant contribution to landscape architecture research, this book will be beneficial not only to students and academics in landscape architecture, but also to scholars in related fields such as history, architecture and social studies"--
