Abstract

In Rio de Janeiro, the spiritual home of world football, and Buenos Aires, where a popular soccer club president was recently elected mayor, the game is an integral part of national identity. Using the football stadium as an illuminating cultural lens, Temples of the Earthbound Gods examines many aspects of urban culture that play out within these monumental architectural forms, including spirituality, violence, rigid social norms, anarchy, and also expressions of sexuality and gender. Tracing the history of the game in Brazil and Argentina through colonial influences as well as indigenous ball courts in Mayan, Aztec, Zapotec, Mixtec, and Olmec societies, Christopher Gaffney's study spans both ancient and contemporary worlds, linking the development of stadiums to urbanization and the consolidation of nation building in two of Latin America's most intriguing megacities.

Abstract

La costruzione di nuovi stadi di proprietà dei club calcistici, secondo uno schema che li vede accompagnati da musei, ristoranti e negozi, costituisce oggi un modello di successo. L’idea è assai apprezzata e al centro di un vivace dibattito, nel quale prevalgono in genere opinioni ampiamente favorevoli. Ma cosa rappresenta questo modello nelle attuali società postmoderne? Come si rapporta alle loro logiche e alle loro linee di sviluppo? Cosa rappresenta nel sistema dei consumi delle nostre città? Questo libro offre alcune risposte analizzando l’emergere dello stadio di calcio contemporaneo, i rapporti tra stadi e politiche urbane, la trasformazione dei tifosi, la coerenza con le tendenze in atto nelle città post-industriali.

Abstract

From ancient stadium construction to a design object of the 21st century: sports arenas have long been turned into places hosting a global media spectacle. For a few hours or days, colossuses made of steel and concrete transform into colourful festival locations. Since the first ancient stadium in Greek Olympia, the typology of stadium construction has undergone a profound transformation: due to changes in requirements and demand, an urban entertainment centre has emerged from the simple running track in the countryside. Through selected examples of projects, this volume from the Construction and Design Manual series illustrates the development of stadiums in relation to building typologies. It provides a basic manual of stadium design using basic planning parameters. Drawings, detailed plans and large-format photos facilitate an understanding of the carefully selected examples and are used to analyse stadium construction in terms of its construction history, planning and architecture.
