Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

It’s widely accepted that our environment is in crisis. Less widely recognized is that three quarters of environmental damage is due to cities – the places where most of us live. As this powerful new book elucidates global sustainability is therefore directly dependent on urban design. In Living Architecture Living Cities Christopher Day and Julie Gwilliam move beyond the current emphasis on technological change. They argue that eco-technology allows us to continue broadly as before and only defers the impending disaster. In reality most negative environmental impacts are due to how we live and the things we buy. Such personal choices often result from dissatisfaction with our surroundings. As perceived environment has a direct effect on attitudes and motivations improving this can achieve more sustainable lifestyles more effectively than drastic building change – with its notorious performance-gap limitations. As it’s in places that our inner feelings and material reality interact perceived environment is place-based. Ultimately however as the root cause of unsustainability is attitude real change requires moving from the current focus on buildings and technology to an emphasis on the non-material. Featuring over 400 high quality illustrations this is essential reading for anyone who believes in the value and power of good design. Christopher Day’s philosophy will continue to inspire students with an interest in sustainable architecture urban planning and related fields. | Living Architecture Living Cities Soul-Nourishing Sustainability

Living Martyrs in Late Antiquity and Beyond Surviving Martyrdom

Living Martyrs in Late Antiquity and Beyond Surviving Martyrdom

This book demonstrates that living martyrdom was an important spiritual aspiration in the late antique Latin west and argues that consequently attempts to define study or locate martyrdom must move away from conceptualizations that require or center on death. After an introduction that traces the persistence of living martyrs as real objects of spiritual devotion and emulation across the span of Christian history and discusses why such martyrs have been overlooked the book focuses on three significant authors from the late ancient Latin west for whom martyrdom did not require death: the Spanish poet Prudentius (c. 348–413) the senator-turned-ascetic Paulinus of Nola (353–431) and the influential North African bishop Augustine of Hippo (354–430). Through historically and literarily contextualized close readings of their work this book shows that each of these three authors attempted to create a new paradigm of martyrdom focused on living rather than dying for God. By focusing on these living martyrs we are able to see more clearly the aspirations and agendas of those who promoted them as martyrs and how their martyrological discourse illuminates the variety of ways that martyrdom is and can be mobilized (in any era) to construct new community-creating worldviews. Living Martyrs in Late Antiquity and Beyond is an important resource for historians of Christianity scholars of religious studies and anyone interested in exploring or understanding martyrological discourse. The Introduction of this book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www. routledge. com.

Surviving Theatre The Living Archive of Spectatorship

Surviving Theatre The Living Archive of Spectatorship

Written soon before and in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic when theatre ground to a halt and spectatorship was suspended this book takes stock of spectatorship as theatre’s living archive and affirms its value in the midst of the present crisis. Drawing from a manifold affective archive of performances and installations (by Marina Abramović Ron Athey Forced Entertainment Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio Blast Theory LIGNA Doris Salcedo Graeme Miller Lenz Rifrazioni Cristina Rizzo etc. ) and expanding on the work of many theorists and scholars such as Roland Barthes and Jacques Rancière Giorgio Agamben and Alain Badiou Nicholas Ridout and Alan Read among others the book focuses on the spectator as the subject rather than the object of investigation. This is the right time to remember their secret power and theorise their collective time in the theatre. This book is an archive of their adventure and a manifesto rooted in their potentiality. It boldly posits the spectator as the inaugurator of theatre the surplus that survives it. The book will be of great interest to spectators all and sundry to scholars and students of theatre and performance studies of spectatorship and politics. | Surviving Theatre The Living Archive of Spectatorship
