Benjamin Bross

4.9/5 (11737 ratings)

Description:This book presents a case study of one of Latin America's most important and symbolic spaces, the Z�calo in Mexico City, weaving together historic events and corresponding morphological changes in the urban environment. It poses questions about how the identity of a place emerges; how it evolves and, why does it change? Mexico City's Z�calo: A History of a Constructed Spatial Identity utilizes the history of a specific place, the Z�calo (Plaza de la Constituci�n), to explain the emergence and evolution of Mexican identities over time.Starting from the Pre-Hispanic period to present day, the work illustrates how the Z�calo reveals spatial manifestations as part of the larger socio-cultural zeitgeist. By focusing on the history of changes in spatial production -what Henri Lefebvre calls society's secretions- Bross traces how cultural, social, economic and political forces shaped the Z�calo's spatial identity, and in turn, how the Z�calo shaped and fostered new identities in return. It will be a fascinating read for architectural and urban historians investigating Latin America.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
