一个新的理论方法,中世纪的乡村定居点,强度的概念,提出。有人认为,分析密集空间的定居点创造了新的机会,探索中世纪生活经验的差异的出现。这种方法旨在克服中世纪建筑二元划分(例如内部/外部)所带来的挑战。借鉴后人类思想,有人认为,这种分歧限制了对过去差异如何以及为什么出现的理解。本文通过对英格兰汉格顿中世纪村庄的房屋建筑和家庭经济的研究,推进了这一方法。有人认为,当日常实践在不断变化的物质环境中进行时,就会出现差异,产生基于情境但不同的乡村体验。这种方法使我们能够将历史变化理解为超出社区或地区界限的局部化互动的拼凑,而不是受制于宏观经济过程。
A new theoretical approach to medieval rural settlement, built on the concept of intensity, is proposed. It is argued that analysing settlements as intensive spaces creates new opportunities to explore the emergence of difference in medieval lived experience. The approach is intended to overcome the challenges posed by approaches to medieval architecture framed by binary divisions (e.g. inside/outside). Drawing on posthuman thought, it is argued that such divisions constrain the understanding of how and why difference emerged in the past. The paper advances this approach through its application to the study of house construction and domestic economy in the medieval village of Hangleton, England. It is proposed that difference emerges as everyday practices are performed in constantly changing material environments, generating situationally grounded but varied experiences of rurality. Rather than being subject to macro-scale economic processes, this approach allows us to understand historical change as a patchwork of localised interactions which overflowed the bounds of communities or regions.
