本文汇集了之前关于情感和场所的两篇文献,以研究体现在将空间转变为场所的重要性。这凸显了关于地方感重要性的政策言论与再生计划的产出之间的不匹配,而再生计划往往似乎故意抹杀这些情感联系。本文概述了“救援地理学”的理念,作为一种在重建之前捕捉社区与城市空间之间具体关系的技术。讨论了在伯明翰东区进行步行访谈的案例研究。结论是,捕捉现有的地方关联可以帮助创建更真实的再生方案,这些方案能够对已经沉浸在情感联系中的景观做出同情的反应。
This paper brings together two previously disengaged literatures on affect and place in order to investigate the importance of embodiment in transforming spaces into places. This brings into sharp relief the mismatch between policy rhetoric on the importance of sense of place and the outputs of regeneration schemes which often seem deliberately to efface these affective connections. The paper outlines the idea of 'rescue geography' as a technique for capturing the embodied relationship between communities and urban spaces prior to redevelopment. A case study using walked interviews in Birmingham's Eastside district is discussed. It is concluded that capturing existing place associations can help to create more authentic regeneration schemes which respond sympathetically to landscapes already soaked in affective connections.
