Through the study of a variety of spaces, this book provides an exploration of the notions of private self and public sphere and considers their interaction. It focuses on areas where the spheres of public and private merge, meet or clash, and assesses the role played by spatial practices and representations in the complex coexistence, mutual definition and constant negotiation of public and private. It offers a variety of approaches, ranging from literature to history, art history, film and cultural studies. It brings to the fore issues relating to the production of space, such as perceptions and definitions of the self and privacy, the politics of the private and public, gender representations, the construction of collective and cultural memory, and the relationship between the individual and the urban environmnent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Monica Jansen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2875740423\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782875740427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e P.I.E-Peter Lang S.A., Editions Scientifiques\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Monica Jansen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486749962495,"sku":"9782875740427","price":64.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0339bf16-2011-4ede-b9bf-554d7656ec1c.jpg?v=1778056555","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-the-piazza-monica-jansen-9782875740427","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
