Price:
$20.00
(available to order)
Summary:
This issue of Public is devoted to the study of "scenes," treating these as phenomenal elements in the cultural life of cities. Both memorable and ephemeral, scenes conjugate a history of urban places by enacting a dramatic visibility. They are a measure of the decline, vitality and distinctiveness of a city. A century or more of theorizing has subdivided city cultures(...)

Summary:
This issue of Public is devoted to the study of "scenes," treating these as phenomenal elements in the cultural life of cities. Both memorable and ephemeral, scenes conjugate a history of urban places by enacting a dramatic visibility. They are a measure of the decline, vitality and distinctiveness of a city. A century or more of theorizing has subdivided city cultures into communities, subcultures, networks and innumerable other unities. "Scenes" are both the haziest of such unities and some of the most productive. Amidst an explosion of writing on all aspects of urban culture, our focus on scenes has served to constrain and inspire the studies contained in this issue. Contributors: Adrian Blackwell, Alan Blum, Jenny Burman, Jean-François Côté, Jonathan Gainer, Elke Grenzer, Janet Jones, Ryan Kamstra, Janine Marchessault, Paul Moore, Brian Poole, James N. Porter, John Porter, Peter Shevlin, Johanne Sloane, Geoff Stahl, Will Straw, Tom Taylor, Kathryn Walter, Margaux Williamson, Kelly Wood. Originally priced at $20.00.

Summary:
The lived experience of cities has long been defined by motion. As urban dwellers travel to work, home, and play they carve random or predictable pathways across neighbourhoods and districts. This book investigates the urban capacity for movement, the city as a space of circulation, by taking into account not only the physical displacement of people but the circulation of(...)

Summary:
The lived experience of cities has long been defined by motion. As urban dwellers travel to work, home, and play they carve random or predictable pathways across neighbourhoods and districts. This book investigates the urban capacity for movement, the city as a space of circulation, by taking into account not only the physical displacement of people but the circulation of cultures, things, and ideas. A series of case studies examine a range of topics, including neighbourhood gentrification, subway busking, yard sales, electronic waste, and language, refining the touchstone principle of circulation for the study of urban culture, both materially and theoretically. Contributors employ a variety of disciplinary approaches to create a richly varied picture of the multiple trajectories and effects of movement in the city.

Summary:
À Montréal, une ville constamment transformée par les mouvements de population, la régénération des quartiers et les aléas politiques, la «médialité» des formes matérielles et sociales aiguise inlassablement les discours et les enjeux qui les sous-tendent, tout en les obscurcissant. Ces formes urbaines, qu’elles soient émergentes ou solidement établies, sont examinées ici(...)

Summary:
À Montréal, une ville constamment transformée par les mouvements de population, la régénération des quartiers et les aléas politiques, la «médialité» des formes matérielles et sociales aiguise inlassablement les discours et les enjeux qui les sous-tendent, tout en les obscurcissant. Ces formes urbaines, qu’elles soient émergentes ou solidement établies, sont examinées ici à partir des points de vue combinés de l’histoire de l’art, de la sémiologie, des études en communication et de la sociologie, des paradigmes de recherche sur la ville qui sont généralement isolés. Ciblant quatorze études de cas, Formes urbaines : circulation, stockage et transmission de l’expression culturelle à Montréal propose une interprétation nouvelle, médiale, d’une culture proprement montréalaise.
