Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - As China races towards modernity, its cities are experiencing an unprecedented surge in urbanisation, characterised by a relentless influx of migrants and sprawling expansion into suburban realms. Shiyu Yang draws upon Henri Lefebvre's influential theoretical framework and applies it to case studies of two urban villages in Beijing to examine how migrants shape the social production of space in these districts. With a wealth of first-hand material from the field, this study provides essential insights into the ongoing processes and social dynamics that resonate with scholars from cross-disciplinary urban studies as well as practitioners in governance and urban planning.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A collection of previously untranslated writings by Henri Lefebvre on rural sociology, situating his research in relation to wider Marxist workOn the Rural is the first English collection to translate Lefebvre's crucial but lesser-known writings on rural sociology and political economy, presenting a wide-ranging approach to understanding the historical and rural sociology of precapitalist social forms, their endurance today, and conditions of dispossession and uneven development. In On the Rural, Stuart Elden and Adam David Morton present Lefebvre's key works on rural questions, including the first half of his book Du rural à l'urbain and supplementary texts, two of which are largely unknown conference presentations published outside FR. On the Rural offers methodological orientations for addressing questions of economy, sociology, and geography by deploying insights from spatial political economy to decipher the rural as a terrain and stake of capitalist transformation. By doing so, it reveals the production of the rural as a key site of capitalist development and as a space of struggle.This volume delivers a careful translation supplemented with extensive notes and a substantive introduction to cement Lefebvre's central contribution to the political economy of rural sociology and geography.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Bachelor Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject American Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1.0, Ruhr-University of Bochum, language: English, abstract: This paper attempts to provide a scholarly analysis of the discussion triggered by Frank Miller's comment that 'Metropolis is New York in the daytime; Gotham City is New York at night.' The paper aims to analyze the representation of Gotham City in Nolan's 'The Dark Knight' trilogy and the representation of Metropolis as fictional version of New York City in selected episodes of the television series 'Smallville.' Starting from a disambiguation of the respective city's name, it continues with an analysis of the resulting relation of factual and imagined place. In the following,the author discusses the possibility of understanding the cities, both Gotham City and Metropolis, as characters within the framework of the respective superhero narrative. To do so, three different theories of space and spatial practices are being introduced: Michel Foucault's 'Of Other Spaces: Utopias and Heterotopias' (1984), Henri Lefebvre's The Production of Space (1991), and Michel de Certeau's The Practices of Everyday Life (1984). These theories and their respective approaches to space, as contradictory as they might seem, open up various ways to discuss the city as character.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The author links Chaucer's writings with the medieval optical tradition in its various forms (scholastic texts, encyclopedias, exempla, vernacular poetry) both in general cultural terms and through the discussion of specific examples. He shows how the science of optics, or perspectiva , provides an account of spatial perception, including visual error, and demonstrates how these aspects of optical theory impact on Chaucer's poetry. He provides detailed and sustained analysis of the spatial content of narratives across the range of Chaucer's works, relating them to optical ideas and making use of Lefebvre's theory of the production of space. The texts discussed include the Book of the Duchess , House of Fame , Knight's Tale, Miller's Tale, Reeve's Tale, Merchant's Tale, Squire's Tale and Troilus and Criseyde .

like new, unused hardcover with printed illustrated covers. BROSS, BENJAMIN. Mexico City's Zócalo: a history of a constructed spatial identity. London and New York: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2022, xvi, 246pp., . Routledge research in architectural history. - "This book presents a case study of one of Latin America's most important and symbolic spaces, the Zócalo in Mexico City, weaving together historic events and corresponding morphological changes in the urban environment. It poses questions about how the identity of a place emerges; how it evolves and, why does it change? Mexico City's Zócalo: A History of a Constructed Spatial Identity utilizes the history of a specific place, the Zócalo (Plaza de la Constitución), to explain the emergence and evolution of Mexican identities over time. Starting from the Pre-Hispanic period to present day, the work illustrates how the Zócalo reveals spatial manifestations as part of the larger socio-cultural zeitgeist. By focusing on the history of changes in spatial production -what Henri Lefebvre calls society's "secretions"- Bross traces how cultural, social, economic and political forces shaped the Zócalo's spatial identity, and in turn, how the Zócalo shaped and fostered new identities in return. It will be a fascinating read for architectural and urban historians investigating Latin America" - CONTENTS: Introduction -- Chapter 1: From Mexica Axis Mundi to Spanish conquest -- Chapter 2: The Plaza Mayor's nascent urbanscape -- Chapter 3: Major events in the Plaza Mayor during the Viceroyalty -- Chapter 4: The last decades of the Viceroyal period -- Chapter 5: A nascent national identity -- Chapter 6: Mexico's second empire and the restored republic -- Chapter 7: Expressions of national identity during the Porfiriato -- Chapter 8: From the Mexican Revolution to World War II -- Chapter 9: The Plaza de la Constitución in the second half of the 20th century -- Chapter 10: A recent history of the Zócalo as public space -- Chapter 11: The Zócalo, Mexico's public square -- Bibliography -- Image credits -- Index.

Hardback, XVI+296 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503510897. The author focuses on the Cistersian abbeys of northern England during the period 1132-1400, and supplies a microhistory of cultural, textual, personnel and architectural comparisons. Medieval Cistercians distinguished between material and imagined space, while the landscapes in which they lived were perceived as both physical sites and abstract topographies. Ostensibly, Cistercians lived in intensely regulated and confined physical circumstances in accordance with ideals of enclosure articulated in the Regula S. Benedicti. However, Cistercian representations of space also express ideas of transcendence and freedom. This monograph focuses on the abbeys of northern England during the period 1132-1400 (Fountains, Rievaulx, Jervaulx, Meaux, Sawley, Roche, Byland and Kirkstall) to facilitate a microhistory of cultural, textual, personnel and architectural comparisons. Post-twelfth century Cistercian history has been understudied, in comparison with research into the euphoria of the order's foundation, and has tended to focus on 'ideals' versus 'reality', whereas this study considers Cistercian houses in terms of contingency, singularity and specificity. The author engages with the work of theorists such as Michel Foucault, Pierre Bourdieu and Henri Lefebvre, all of whom have explored the cultural production of space and the meanings attributed to certain spaces by abstract reference, performative practice and institutional direction. The study is richly illustrated with 45 images of the landscape and space of these houses and enables the reader to see how one monastic order positioned itself in relation to geography, architecture, institution, community and cosmos, and dealt with the dialectic between regulation and imagination, freedom and enclosure. Patrick Geary (UCLA) commends this study as being 'based on a wide reading of Cistercian texts and blends solid text-critical historical scholarship with more conceptual approaches in a most convincing way'.

A puzzling gift Seven lithograph puzzle maps, original hand-colour in outline, housed in contemporary mahogany box, with decorative marked rules and lettering, two pieces lacking in France, and two North America. Presented in a decorative wooden case, these geographical jigsaws were given as an extravagent gift to two girls, Yvon and Henriette Pasquet, according to the dedicatory panel inside. The emerging children's culture of the mid-eighteenth century produced toys and games that were often as ornamental as they were practical, and the demand for increasingly unique and interesting items eventually resulted in such puzzles. Although John Spilsbury is widely credited with creating the first dissected map in 1766, there are earlier references to these sorts of geographical games made by a Madame de Beaumont in France, where this example was also produced. Jean Vincent Marie Dopter became a prominent Parisian lithographer and printer in the 1830s, specialising in religious and political pamphlets, which were considered by some so outrageous that he was eventually sentenced to ten days in prison. Far less controversially, he also produced these puzzle maps, which earned him medals and honourable mentions at various exhibitions, including l'Exposition universelle de Paris, and the Great Exhibition in London. The dissected maps show named countries, exploration routes and the relief of major mountain ranges, making the puzzles an effective educational aid, and a literalisation of Lefebvre's claim that "knowledge of spaces wavers between description and dissection". Such ornate sets were predictably expensive, and became popular mainly with the elite, among whom these items were made into symbols of status. In Jane Austen's 1814 novel 'Mansfield Park', for example, the poor protagonist is mocked by her wealthy cousins because she "cannot put the map of Europe together". This set of games, then, would have been an extravagant present, worthy of the Countess de Turgot who gifted them. The wooden box contains seven jigsaws, displaying one world map, a map of France divided into departments, and maps of the continents of Europe, North America, South America and Asia. The engraved maps were printed, hand-coloured, glued onto card, and then dissected into 70 to 80 pieces. They are separated by boards bordered with the same green paper that lines the inside of the box. They all identify Dopter's address as 58 rue de la Harpe, apart from the map of Europe, which lists number 66 as its place of publication. As is the inevitable fate of almost all toys, a few parts have been lost, leaving two holes in the maps of North America and France. Other examples of Dopter's Atlas set also contain a puzzle depicting Oceania, which is not included here. We have been able to trace only two institutional examples of this set of geographical puzzles, at the State Library of New South Wales and the Bibliothèque nationale de France.
