Mit Civitas schreibt Richard Sennett Stadtgeschichte als Kulturgeschichte: Sein Buch ist eine brillante Studie über die urbane Lebenswelt und ihre sozialen, architektonischen und existenziellen Formensprachen. Es handelt von der Funktion der Straßen und Plätze, von der Raum- und Zeiterfahrung, von Verhaltensstilen und Verständigungsmustern, von Innerlichkeit und Außenwahrnehmung in der Menge, unter Fremden. Zugleich ist es ein leidenschaftliches Plädoyer für die Vielfalt großstädtischer Kultur, die Unvertrautes erfahrbar macht.

Work Description

A fascinating study of the search for shelter and the fear of exposure to strangers and new experiences in Western culture and how these two concerns have shaped the physical fabric of the city. Sennett's exploration of the development of urban society and structure jumps back and forth from the ancient world to the present: from the assembly hall of Athens to the Palladium Club; from Augustine's City of God to the Turkish baths of the Lower East Side.
