Description

Explore a deep analysis of how the built environment influences historical thought in Writing the Materialities of the Past. Part of the Routledge Research in Architecture series, this book examines the ways materiality has been overlooked in historical studies since the 1950s. Author Sam Griffiths challenges the dominance of socio-economic and linguistic-cultural models that have shaped city theory for decades. By addressing how these models impact our understanding of time-space relationality and historical narration, the text provides a fresh perspective on how we perceive historical events through their physical surroundings. This work engages directly with studies of historical writing to treat the materiality of the built environment as a form of literary practice. It is an essential resource for scholars, students, and professionals interested in architecture, urban theory, and the way physical spaces shape our historical imagination.
