URBS 266b: The American City:Understanding Life in the Urban Maze
1.00 Credits
Vassar College
This course attempts to combat the profound disorientation that the American city causes its observers by offering a sustained exercise in urban cognitive mapping. Spatial theorist Henri Lefebvre advises that a tripartite anatomization of the city is necessary to diminish the extent to which the metropole may mystify those who confront it. He encourages students to understand how the city has been conceived, perceived, and lived. The course adheres to Lefebrve's recommendations by first exploring the theory and mission that underwrote the city's emergence. Students become familiar with what forces led to urban agglomerations and what plans enabled the birth of metropolitan spaces. Second, students review the writings of a broad range of interlocutors from whom the city motivated comment. Mr. Simpson.Not offered in 2008/09.
