Abstract:

This dissertation explores the creation of a space that highlights culture and heritage through the study, documentation and expression of oral language. The space is within an established urban environment, responsive to its vibrant physical, historical and social African context. Pretoria is a complex construct of two different spatial perceptions; built by a society from european heritage but now used mostly by people with an african heritage who were excluded from the urban development processes until recently. The laws and systems used today are still based on european urban ideals and th

Abstract:

"Whitman's Inscriptions" examines the link between civic space and material practice in the writings of Emerson, Thoreau, Whitman, and Louisa May Alcott. Combining media studies, bibliography, and urban history, my dissertation argues that these four authors used manuscript as a medium of civic engagement in their published works. In each chapter, my comparative analyses of manuscript practices and published texts examine the historical layers of storage, formatting, and circulation conventions that assumed new forms in literary writing under the specific technological conditions of the indust

Abstract:

“Jazz-Shaped Bodies” addresses representations of the city in black transnational literature, with a focus on sonic schemas and mapping. Drawing on cultural geography, posthumanist thought, and the discourse of diaspora, the thesis examines the extent to which the urban landscape is figured as a panoptic structure in twentieth and twenty-first century diasporic texts, and how the mimetic function of artistic performance challenges this structure. Through comparative analysis of works emerging from and/or invested with sites in American, Canadian, and Caribbean landscapes, the study develops ac

Abstract:

A refugee faces many issues on their journey to safety, but the issues do not end once they reach a host country. Applying for asylum is an arduous process with long waiting times in most European countries, and a low acceptance rate. Lack of integration into a new community is one of the main issues faced during this time. Studies show that labour market opportunities are a successful tool to aid integration and help to close the employment gap between native residents and new arrivals. The employment gap exists due to lack of local language, employment connections, transference of existing s

Abstract:

- How do we create a public space that can be used all year round? The square is an important part of the urban fabric, it is where communities are formed, and people meet, a non-commercial resource benefiting the inhabitants. They encourage chance encounters, diversity, a sense of communality, and democracy and are therefore key to a living city. These qualities are essential and must function year-round. An issue with the public spaces in Umeå is that they only function when the weather allows it. On rainy days and during the long winter season, people seem to retreat from the city’s squares

Abstract:

In earlier research, I defined the concept of ‘awkward space’ in cities as ‘ambivalent or unresolved spaces that are the remnants of a previous pattern of flow’ (Jones, 2007). The concept of awkward space is important because it offers designers and planners an insight into the latent affordances and informal practices that exist within the urban environment. These lie outside the realm of rational planning and design strategies. My aim in this thesis is to explore how and why we experience awkward space in the city in order to better understand how the concept could be used productively in co

Abstract:

How are public spaces regulated in tourist cities? In this doctoral dissertation I seek to answer this question by exploring the intersections between urban tourism and public space regulation. I argue that public space regulation substantially differs from the tourist to the non-tourist zone. This thesis contradicts the common belief that public space regulation may vary from city to city, but remains basically the same across the interior space of the city. It also makes possible to appreciate the extent to which the normative dimension of the production of space is related to patterns of un

Abstract:

Space is a visual communicator. The act of perceiving space is a neurological soiree that projects and negotiates meaning in our constructed world. The poetry that we observe within space is tied directly to our emotions and to previous experience. Within ourselves, we each have particular feelings, unconscious or not, relating to height, length, and depth, as well as light and shadow. For example, a long, narrow hallway may elicit anxiety, while an open, sunlit nave in a cathedral may bring about feelings of serenity and joy.

Lefebvre's post-Cartesian, relational spatiality envisaged space as a fluid, contingent relationship between people, culture and space.
