Samenvatting | It seems self-evident that modern culture is linked to and rooted in the experience of urban life. But in postmodernity, have the virtual reality of computerisation and the mass media replaced or devalued 'real life' in urban spaces? Or have cities attained new social, cultural and political functions? By introducing an intercultural attitude towards urbanity, by analysing visuality as the predominant aspect of urban culture and by reassessing 'classical' notions of urbanity from teh perspective of recent cultural theory, this publication opens up a new, synthesized vision of contemporary city life. |
