The main question concerns the potential for change emerging in cities forsaking the military fortifications they had relied on for centuries. In order to grasp the historical dimension and complexity of the concomitant dissolution of urban boundaries (a topic which has received too little scholarly attention hitherto), the study compares various European cities. The spatial recoding caused by this fundamental transformation of urban boundaries is analysed on the basis of three paradigmatic, interrelated subprojects: entrance plazas, green spaces, and hygiene zones. The abundance of literature devoted to them in various disciplines is systematically evaluated for the first time. Spaces of opportunity arose for new activities for urban society, strengthening the bonds between the city and the surrounding countryside, and simultaneously reshaping the city’s traditional internal existence. Bringing together the disciplines of architectural history, the history of urban planning, and the history of gardening, this collective monograph examines the three subprojects from a common standpoint. The goal is to produce a focused, problem-based account of defortification as a process of the dissolution of urban boundaries throughout Europe.

主要的问题是，在放弃了几个世纪以来一直依赖的军事防御工事的城市中，出现了变化的可能性。为了把握伴随而来的城市边界消解的历史维度和复杂性(到目前为止，这是一个学术关注太少的话题)，这项研究比较了不同的欧洲城市。基于三个相互关联的典型子项目：入口广场、绿地和卫生区，分析了这种城市边界的根本性转变所造成的空间重新编码。第一次系统地评估了不同学科中关于它们的文献的丰富性。为城市社会的新活动提供了机会空间，加强了城市与周围乡村之间的联系，同时重塑了城市的传统内部存在。这本集体专著汇集了建筑史、城市规划史和园艺史的学科，从一个共同的立场审视了这三个子项目。其目标是将变形作为整个欧洲城市边界消失的一个过程进行有重点的、基于问题的描述。
