Urban Space And Representation

E-books » Type: Engineering and Technology/math/etc

Pluto Press (2000) / ISBN 0745313493 / 256 pages / PDF / RS / 24MB

This is a really useful text for students trying to get to grips with urban studies. The authors give a challenging but accessible introduction to the ways in which urban theory has met with literary and cultural studies. The book then covers a refreshing range of cities and texts (nice to see more than the usual New York, London, LA) and often the familiar cities (like Paris, New York) are made different through the subjects discussed - Brooklyn and Harlem rather than downtown Manhattan, Parisian banlieues rather than the city of light.
