Pathologies of Modern Space

  • Publisher: Routledge

Pathologies of Modern Space traces the rise of agoraphobia and ties its astonishing growth to the emergence of urban modernity. In contrast to traditional medical conceptions of the disorder, Kathryn Milun shows that this anxiety is closely related to the emergence of "empty urban space": homogenous space, such as malls and parking lots, stripped of memory and tactile features. Pathologies of Modern Space is a compelling cultural analysis of the history of medical treatments for agoraphobia and what they can tell us about the normative expectations for the public self in the modern city.

Dividing Paris

"Dividing Paris: Urban Renewal and Social Inequality, 1852-1870 offers a new look at the ambitious urban changes that transformed the city of Paris during the Second Empire, when Paris became a template for urban renewal in many large cities in Europe, North, and South America. Esther da Costa Meyer looks at the social and historical of context of these urban changes--what Napoleon III, his prefect Georges-Eugene Haussman, and their team of engineers planned, as well as how the diverse and deeply stratified public responded to them. Along with broad streets and boulevards intended to enable crowds and merchandise to circulate and, also, impede the chances of popular insurgency, Haussman's pr...

Sementes de Ciência: livro de homenagem António Marinho Amorim da Costa

Em reconhecimento das suas contribuições importantes na área, a tónica dos capítulos que amigos e colaboradores de António Amorim da Costa trazem a este livro vai desde facetas da história da ciência relacio­nados com a química e da sua pré-história, através da alquimia, a iatroquímica, o período do flogisto, a química pneumática e finalmente a história da química quântica e mecânica estatística em tempos mais próximos do nosso. Há uma ênfase muito particular nos aspetos históricos do desen­volvimento da química em Portugal e no Brasil. No entanto a química não se desenvolveu de forma isolada, e as contribuições para este livro abordam áreas adjacentes, como ...
