Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Place has become a widespread concept in contemporary work in the humanities, creative arts, and social sciences. Yet in spite of its centrality, place remains a concept more often deployed than interrogated, and there are relatively few works that focus directly on the concept of place as such. The Intelligence of Place fills this gap, providing an exploration of place from various perspectives, encompassing anthropology, architecture, geography, media, philosophy, and the arts, and as it stands in relation to a range of other concepts. Drawing together many of the key thinkers currently writing on the topic, The Intelligence of Place offers a unique point of entry into the contemporary thinking of place into its topographies and poetics providing new insights into a concept crucial to understanding our world and ourselves.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Over the last twenty years, Jeff Malpas research has involved his engagement with architects and other academics around the issues of place, architecture and landscape and particularly the way these practitioners have used the work of Martin Heidegger.In Rethinking Dwelling, Malpas primary focus is to rethink of these issues in a way that is directly informed by an understanding of place and the human relation it. With essays on a range of architectural and design concerns, as well as engaging with other thinkers on topics including textuality in architecture, contemporary high-rise construction, the significance of the line, the relation between building and memory and the idea of authenticity in architecture, this book departs from the traditional phenomenological focus and provides students and scholars with a new ontological assessment of landscape and architecture. As such, it may also be used on other spatial or topographic disciplines including geography, sociology, anthropology, and art in which the spatial turn has been so important. "The volume incorporates ideas and materials that first appeared in a range of previously published essays. None of those essays appear here in their original form, and in many cases, only parts of those essays are incorporated into the chapters to which they relate, with most chapters being entirely original to this volume."
