“Books can be dangerous. The best ones should be labeled ‘This could change your life.’” –Helen Exley
Synopsis
CITIES IMAGINED symbolizes the dynamic relationship between real and imagined spaces, subjects, and objects across disciplines. Forged from lifetimes of academic work that balanced critical insight with constant creativity, Julian Chambliss and Walter Greason document, analyze, and synthesize multiple traditions of critical analysis and aesthetic performance. In tracing the history of culture, identity, and structures over the twentieth century, CITIES IMAGINED provides a framework to rethink modern history. From the emergence of the Booker T. Washington’s |Tuskegee Universe| in the late nineteenth century through the trans-dimensional character of the comic book city and transpatial power of the Black Lives Matter moment, CITIES IMAGINED offers a sequence of templates that will guide scholars, activists, architects, and theorists through processes of metropolitan creation in pursuit of equal justice for all people.
