Winner of the 1994 Lewis Mumford Prize given by the Society for American City and Regional Planning History (SACRPH).

Christine Boyer faces head-on the crisis of the city in the late twentieth century, taking us on a fascinating journey through theaters and museums, panoramas and maps, buildings and institutions that are used to construct a new reading of the city as a system of representation, a complex cultural entity. Boyer brings together elements and concepts from geography, critical theory, architecture, literature, and painting in a synthetic and readable work that is broad in its reach and original in its insights. What finally emerges is a sense of the city reinvigorated with richness and potential.

The City of Collective Memory describes a series of different visual and mental models by which the urban environment has been recognized, depicted, and planned. Boyer identifies three major "maps": one common to the traditional city—the city as a work of art; one characteristic of the modern city—the city as panorama; and one appropriate to the contemporary city—the city as spectacle. It is a richly illustrated and documented study that pays considerable attention to the normally hidden and unspoken codes that regulate the order imposed on and derived from the city. A wide range of secondary historical literature and theoretical work is considered, with evident debts to structuralist analysis of urban form represented by Aldo Rossi, as well to much post-structuralist criticism from Walter Benjamin to the present.

几篇不是很紧密的论文的合集。把建筑作为collective memory的载体之一，Boyer可能做得不是最好的，但确是比较全面的。看剧院和博物馆的部分。另外，一种学通了的感觉

20世纪城市理论群峰中不可避开的一座

哈哈哈哈哈哈哈太长了。。。根据plates判断是法国帮。

几个很有见解的点： 1、记忆被商品化的历史，城市以及对它图像的呈现体现了自18世纪以来资本主义的不同阶段（城市作为艺术品，全景图，和奇观）2.技术对于人们认知和记忆的影响，Boyer是悲观的，从摄影和影像，直至今日互联网、电脑电视，我们的认知越来越少，这是个失忆的时代 | wj姐的推荐下，第一次试着系统性记笔记和跳读，很有帮助，但是这种读法让我有点紧张，生怕漏了东西 | Boyer来了去年的rev…
