只要它们存在,城市就被摧毁--洗劫、动摇、焚烧、轰炸、洪水、饥饿、辐射和掠夺--几乎在每一个情况下,它们都会重新崛起。在现代,很少有一个城市在遭到破坏后不重建的,无论是自然的还是人为的。“弹性城市”探讨了来自地球仪各地的城市灾害和正在进行的城市生活恢复。它探讨了城市重建的原因,未来的愿景如何融入新的城市景观,以及灾难如何以建筑形式进行解释和纪念。一个由历史学家、建筑师和城市研究专家组成的国际组织关注了一系列遭受创伤的城市,包括:俄克拉荷马州城爆炸案; 1871年芝加哥大火; 1906年弗朗西斯科地震和大火; 1812年战争期间英国入侵华盛顿;第二次世界大战中的柏林和华沙; Gernika在西班牙内战期间的轰炸,耶路撒冷在几个世纪的破坏后的重建;墨西哥城1985年的地震;中国的唐山地震;东京的地震,火灾和第二次世界大战的轰炸;贝鲁特在20世纪90年代的战争;和中南部洛杉矶在罗德尼金殴打。通过这样做,他们揭示了这些具有弹性的城市所共有的经验,同时强调没有两个城市以完全相同的方式恢复。这本书将吸引任何对城市感兴趣的人,在人类最持久的文物和持久的公共生活形式中。
For as long as they have existed, cities have been destroyed - sacked, shaken, burnt, bombed, flooded, starved, irradiated, and pillaged - in almost every case they have risen again. Rarely in modern times has a city not been rebuilt following destruction, be it natural or man-made. "The Resilient City" explores urban disasters from around the globe and the ongoing restoration of urban life. It examines why cities are rebuilt, how a vision for the future gets incorporated into a new urban landscape, and how disasters have been interpreted and commemorated in built form. An international cast of historians, architects, and urban studies experts looks at a diverse group of cities that have suffered traumas, including: the Oklahoma City bombing; Chicago's great fire of 1871; San Francisco's earthquake and fires of 1906; Washington's invasion by the British during the War of 1812; Berlin and Warsaw in World War II; Gernika's bombardment during the Spanish Civil War, Jerusalem's rebuilding following centuries of destruction; Mexico City's 1985 earthquake; China's Tangshan earthquake; Tokyo's earthquake, fires, and WWII bombardment; Beirut in the 1990s wars; and South Central Los Angeles following the Rodney King beating. In so doing, they bring to light the experiences these resilient cities share, while underscoring that no two cities have recovered in the precisely the same way. This book will appeal to anyone interested in cities, among humankind's most durable artifacts and enduring forms of communal life.
