Grossbaustellen sind nicht nur Ausdruck und Motor technischen Fortschritts, sondern als symbolische Orte auch Trager politischer und kultureller Botschaften.
In the first decades of the 20th century, civil engineers were widely seen as a role model for future architects. Their role within the contemporary architecture movements, however, was hardly discussed. To this day, even fundamental questions about collaborations, rivalries, or conflicts between the two sister disciplines still await answers. This volume brings together contributions by international scholars on the cooperation between architects and civil engineers in various countries in the interwar period. By offering both insights into national peculiarities and new reflections on the general nature, character, and significance of such joint efforts, it opens exciting new perspectives on the modern building culture of Europe and beyond.
Transformation statt Abriss und Neubau, Entwicklung statt Bruch: Zunehmend rückt das Prinzip Weiterbauen als Gegenposition zum Neubau-Paradigma der Moderne in den Fokus von Architektur und Bautechnik. Es versteht das Bauwerk weniger als abzuschließendes Produkt denn als kontinuierlichen Prozess, thematisiert die Kontinuität von Orten und Bauten und wirft neue Fragen nach ihrer Abgeschlossenheit und Autorenschaft, nach Haltbarkeit und Nachhaltigkeit auf. Im Fokus des Bandes stehen neben den technischen und künstlerischen Prozessen von Umbau und Anpassung auch die sich ändernden gesellschaftlichen Wertvorstellungen und Interpretationsmuster, die in der Neuausrichtung vorhandener Bausubstanz durch das Weiterbauen ihren materiellen Ausdruck finden.
Städte verändern sich fortwährend. Was häufig bleibt, sind Keller als unterirdische Gebäudeteile, die dem Modernisierungsdruck und Zerstörungsereignissen weniger ausgesetzt sind. Damit ist die historische Kellerschicht vielerorts Träger oberirdisch bereits verlorener Informationen. Mit welchen Methoden kann diese Quelle erschlossen werden? Welche Forschungsfragen können mit den in den Kellern erhaltenen Befunden beantwortet werden? Renommierte Forscher*innen diskutieren aktuelle Herangehensweisen und Ergebnisse anhand verschiedener Fallbeispiele. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt dabei auf Aspekten der Stadtbauforschung und der Frage, inwieweit die Transformation von Kellern Stadtentwicklungsprozesse widerspiegelt.
The question of what heritage is and how we deal with it is not a neutral one. Recent events such as the Black Lives Matter movement and the toppling of monuments have made evident how much the colonial past is inscribed in our built environment; at the same time, colonialism affects memorialization and historiography. Hence, those involved in architectural history are challenged to re-consider their positionality. Whose heritage are colonial sites? Which conflicting memories are attached to them? How are archives and material evidence reassessed to bring forward the stories of marginalized subjects? Following the call for decolonization, this volume explores historical methodologies and shows the entanglement of narratives at architectural sites, bringing together archaeology, architectural history, and heritage studies. A contribution to the current debate on decolonization and memorialization Interdisciplinary perspectives on architecture and heritage International range of authors
Though sometimes overlooked and underestimated, rural space has played a substantial role in social, cultural, economic, and ideological change. This role can be studied by looking at the re/production of spatial agents that were caused by direct or indirect political interventions in rural communities. In this book, scholars looking at case studies from Greece, Turkey, Italy, Portugal, and Austria discuss the making of identity in and through rural areas, which have dramatically changed under different political, social, and economic conditions from the turn of the 20th century up until today. By focusing on potential contestations of such changes, the authors provide a better in-depth understanding of spatial dynamics related to cultural and social spheres of 20th-century rurality. Includes contributions of national and international experts Deals with 20th-century rural environment and identity-making policies Findings of an international symposium of DFG Research Training Group "Cultural and Technological Significance of Historic Buildings", Brandenburg University of Technology (BTU) Cottbus-Senftenberg
