Abstract:In January 1902, the rebuilt Lying-In Hospital of the City of New York received its first patient. The new hospital arrived at a moment of transition at several interlocking registers: new theorizations of vanguard hospital design; increasing medical specialization and professionalization; burgeoning awareness of germ theory and antiseptic procedures; and changing understandings of pregnancy, labor, childbirth, and postnatal care. The 1902 hospital sits at the nexus of these intersecting cultural threads. This article centers the 1902 Lying-In Hospital as a productive site for understanding changing conceptions of pregnancy and birthing in turn-of-the-century New York City and beyond. Through close study of the planning, construction, and operation of the hospital, it demonstrates that the building's plan made manifest physicians' efforts to professionalize obstetrics, articulate discrete stages of childbirth, and prevent midwives from practicing, emphasizing physicians' racialized and ethnicized thinking about the birthing practices of migrant women. These theoretical solutions for physicians, however, simultaneously transformed patients' understandings of pregnancy and birthing through the experiential space of the reorganized hospital. Unlike birthing in the home—wherein labor, delivery, and recovery all took place within a singular room—the hospital physically and temporally segregated labor, delivery, and postnatal care, contributing to the medicalization of childbirth.
摘要:1902年1月,重建的纽约市住院医院迎来了第一位病人。新医院在几个连锁寄存器的过渡时刻到来:先锋医院设计的新理论;加强医疗专业化和职业化;对细菌理论和消毒程序的认识日益增强;人们对怀孕、分娩、分娩和产后护理的理解也在不断变化。1902年的医院坐落在这些交叉文化线索的连接点上。本文以1902年的卧床医院为中心,作为了解世纪之交纽约市及其他地区怀孕和分娩观念变化的生产性场所。通过对医院规划、建设和运营的仔细研究,表明该建筑的规划体现了医生对产科专业化的努力,明确了分娩的离散阶段,并阻止助产士执业,强调了医生对流动妇女分娩实践的种族化和民族化思考。然而,这些为医生提供的理论解决方案同时通过重组医院的体验空间改变了患者对怀孕和分娩的理解。不像在家里分娩——分娩、分娩和康复都在一个单独的房间里进行——医院在物理上和暂时上将分娩、分娩和产后护理分开,有助于分娩的医学化。

Asian, and Hispanic communities— each of which deserves much more attention, given that there is as much geographical diversity among these communities in America as there is cultural diversity in their practices, rituals, physical representations, and connections to areas such as food, music, and design. “Public mourning” is discussed with examination of “everyday memorials as spaces of public mourning,” including “vinyl decals, ghost bikes, Internet cemeteries . . . as objects of mourning” (115). This is one of the high points of Sloane’s investigation because it catalogs these expressions, including those in social media platforms, and explores their meanings. This section’s last chapter, “Reintroducing the Cemetery,” explores how cemeteries have become places where activities happen other than those associated with death. In creative efforts to remain relevant (or, more accurately, visible to new audiences), privately managed cemeteries have morphed into quasipublic spaces with events such as tours related to historical or celebrity occupants, funerary sculpture, and natural features; fundraising events for maintenance costs; theatrical productions, “ghost walks,” evening movies, touring bands, and comedy shows; and even 5K races. In doing so, the “paradox is that cemeteries are trying so hard to make themselves part of the public realm through the development of traditional (and innovative) tours and events,” rather than devoting time and attention to those for whom the cemetery exists— the families whose loved ones are buried there (156– 57). The final section examines “Memorials” and how such representations have evolved from gravestones incised with basic personal information, or perhaps a brief quotation about the deceased with an iconic symbol, to representations far removed from cemeteries that reflect contemporary social and cultural values, public “RIP” murals, roadside memorials, ghost bicycles, tattoos, and even digital platforms. Particularly insightful is Table 8.1, “Types of everyday memorials organized from personal to public” that lists eight “Types/ Focus” examples from “More Personal” to “More Public” with notations of locations, descriptions, decorative motifs, purposes, and origins (193). This chart, together with an earlier one, “Types and characteristics of digital memorial sites, categorized by personal to public” should certainly be the genesis of further academic explorations, from contemporary inclass discussions to future theses and dissertations (118). Sloane closes with speculations on how ongoing changes in attitudes about ethnic, racial, cultural, and sexual identities are represented in contemporary attitudes about death and cemeteries. Particularly poignant is his inclusion of the inscription on the grave marker of Technical Sergeant Leonard Matlovich, a gay Vietnam veteran, located in the Congressional Cemetery in Washington, D.C.: “When I was in the military/They gave me a medal for killing two men/And a dis
亚裔和西班牙裔社区——每个社区都值得更多的关注,因为在美国,这些社区在地理上的多样性与他们在实践、仪式、身体表现以及与食物、音乐和设计等领域的联系方面的文化多样性一样多。“公众哀悼”是通过考察“作为公众哀悼空间的日常纪念”来讨论的,包括“乙烯基贴花、幽灵自行车、互联网墓地……”作为哀悼的对象”(115)。这是斯隆研究的亮点之一,因为它对这些表达进行了分类,包括社交媒体平台上的表达,并探讨了它们的含义。本节的最后一章,“重新介绍墓地”,探讨了墓地如何成为发生与死亡无关的活动的地方。为了保持相关性(或者,更准确地说,对新观众来说是可见的),私人管理的墓地已经演变成准公共空间,其中包括与历史或名人有关的旅游、葬礼雕塑和自然景观;维修费用筹款活动;戏剧作品、“幽灵漫步”、晚间电影、巡回乐队和喜剧表演;甚至是5公里赛跑。在这样做的过程中,“矛盾的是,墓地正努力通过发展传统的(和创新的)旅游和活动,使自己成为公共领域的一部分”,而不是把时间和精力花在那些为墓地而存在的人身上——那些埋葬在那里的亲人的家庭(156 - 57)。最后一部分考察了“纪念碑”,以及这些代表是如何从刻着基本个人信息的墓碑,或者可能是对死者的简短引用,以及一个标志性的符号,发展到远离墓地,反映当代社会和文化价值观的代表,公共“安息”壁画,路边纪念碑,幽灵自行车,纹身,甚至数字平台。特别有见地的是表8.1,“从个人到公共组织的日常纪念类型”,它列出了从“更个人”到“更公共”的八个“类型/焦点”例子,并附有地点、描述、装饰图案、目的和起源的标记(193)。这张图表,连同之前的“数字纪念场所的类型和特征,从个人到公共的分类”,当然应该成为进一步学术探索的起源,从当代的课堂讨论到未来的论文和学位论文(118)。斯隆在书的最后提出了一些猜测,即当代人们对死亡和墓地的态度如何体现了对民族、种族、文化和性别身份的态度的持续变化。尤其令人心切的是,他在位于华盛顿特区国会公墓的越战同性恋老兵、技术中士伦纳德·马特洛维奇(Leonard Matlovich)的墓碑上写了这样一句话:“当我在军队服役时,他们给了我一枚勋章,因为我杀了两个人/因为我爱一个人而被开除。”具有讽刺意味的是,他的坟墓就在联邦调查局局长j·埃德加·胡佛和克莱德·托尔森(Clyde Tolson)的坟墓“隔壁”,前者是著名的同性恋憎恶者,后者是胡佛长期的“副局长、继承人和可能的情人”(231页)。最后,作者提出了一些具有挑衅性的问题:技术将如何改变我们与死亡有关的传统?“我们会坐在家里看着电脑,站在墓碑旁,还是两者兼而有之?””(232)。毕竟,在马特洛维奇的坟墓旁边,有一张小卡片,上面有一个QR码,上面写着一个关于马特洛维奇的故事。“在数字时代,”作者指出,“我们不应该对悲伤转移到互联网上感到惊讶,数字图像为哀悼提供了新的场所”(232 - 33)。那么,死亡的未来是什么?未来我们将如何哀悼?斯隆的回答恰如其分地证实了他的雅努斯式研究方法的价值:“最好的方法是把未来想象成过去和现在。”正如作者所指出的,我们都想留下一些东西作为我们曾经在这里的证据,这样做,我们可能会“带来我们的传统和仪式的元素来安慰我们”(242)。这本书为理解许多与死亡、哀悼、纪念和墓地有关的美国传统和仪式提供了背景,即使不是百科全书式的,并提出了关于我们未来如何思考这些主题的挑衅性问题。

new version of the playground with smaller, linked versions of what originally had been distinct elements. The result, Warsh notes, was harshly criticized, perceived as a loss of integrity from the original, or even a “cartoonish” version of Dattner’s design. Here, as throughout the book, Warsh gives space to criticisms of the conservancy’s work in the park, but ultimately downplays these in concluding that the results ultimately were necessary and effective. Her claim that despite the criticisms of Ancient Playground, children continue to eagerly and joyfully play there, unaware of any loss of its modernist precedent, is an important one. In a space for play, is a “rich and engaging play experience” (10) the ultimate goal of preservation, rather than the specific material and formal qualities of a site? This is a question worth asking. But her defense of these preservation efforts can feel a bit onesided at times, rather than a real engagement with their critics. The book concludes on an intriguing note: while the designers of the adventurestyle playgrounds sought to create safe, protected spaces open to imaginative discovery and creative play, Warsh writes, they also sought to relate and connect playgrounds— and play— to the rest of urban life. In part, this is the motivation behind recent efforts to remove visible barriers between playground and park (as in the 2010 renovation of Heckscher Playground). But Warsh goes farther, calling on children and caregivers to look beyond the playground, “to see that play does not need to be limited to the domain of the playground . . . where there are rocks to climb, sticks to collect, lawns to run across, and no safety standards” (144). It is an interesting conjecture: if the adventurestyle playground seeks to unlock the child’s potential for exploration and limitless play, is the ultimate goal to transcend the playground altogether and return children to the park itself, as playground?
新版本的操场与原来不同的元素有着更小的联系。沃什指出,这样做的结果遭到了严厉的批评,认为它失去了原作的完整性,甚至认为它是达特纳设计的“卡通化”版本。在这里,和整本书一样,沃什对保护协会在公园的工作提出了批评,但最终轻描淡写地得出结论,这些结果最终是必要和有效的。她声称,尽管“古代游乐场”受到了批评,但孩子们仍在那里热切而快乐地玩耍,没有意识到它的现代主义先例的任何丧失,这一点很重要。在游戏空间中,保存的最终目标是“丰富而引人入胜的游戏体验”(10),而不是场地的特定材料和正式质量?这是一个值得一问的问题。但她对这些保护努力的辩护有时会让人觉得有点片面,而不是真正与批评者接触。书中总结了一个有趣的地方:沃尔什写道,冒险风格游乐场的设计师们试图创造安全、受保护的空间,让想象力的发现和创造性的游戏开放,同时他们也试图将游乐场和游戏与城市生活的其他部分联系起来。在某种程度上,这是最近努力消除游乐场和公园之间可见障碍的动机(如2010年Heckscher游乐场的翻新)。但沃什走得更远,他呼吁孩子们和看护人把目光投向操场之外,“要看到,玩耍并不需要局限于操场的领域……那里有岩石可以攀爬,有树枝可以收集,有草坪可以奔跑,没有安全标准”(144)。这是一个有趣的猜想:如果冒险风格的游乐场试图释放孩子们探索和无限玩耍的潜力,那么最终目标是完全超越游乐场,让孩子们回到公园本身,作为游乐场吗?

Los Angeles's Indoor Swap Meet Boom and the Emergence of a Multiethnic Retailscape 洛杉矶室内旧货交换市场的繁荣和多民族零售景观的出现

abstract:Indoor swap meets proliferated within metropolitan Los Angeles's rapidly diversifying inner suburbs throughout the 1980s and 1990s, transforming onetime retail and industrial buildings into multitenant vendor markets. Relying on architectural and programmatic theming to attract Latinx shoppers, many swap meet managers built market environments that resembled Mexican mercados and tianguis. While some urbanists have interpreted these markets as sites of "Latino Urbanism," their Korean ownership, large cohorts of Asian vendors and Black shoppers, and ties to Asian banking and garment industries complicate these narratives. Tracing the origins of this Korean-dominated business niche through case studies in Koreatown, Lynwood, South Los Angeles, and Anaheim, this article illustrates how shoppers and vendors used swap meets' non-White social environments to negotiate class and social differences. Rather than essentializing these market environments as "Latinx" spaces, this article argues that swap meets are better understood as fertile sites of material and social exchange across ethnic and class lines.
在20世纪80年代和90年代,室内交换会在洛杉矶大都市快速多样化的内郊区激增,将曾经的零售和工业建筑转变为多租户的供应商市场。依靠建筑和程序化的主题来吸引拉丁购物者,许多旧货市场的管理者建立了类似于墨西哥mercados和tianguis的市场环境。虽然一些城市学家将这些市场解释为“拉丁城市主义”的场所,但它们的韩国所有者、大量的亚洲供应商和黑人购物者,以及与亚洲银行业和服装业的联系,使这些叙述变得复杂。本文通过对韩国城、林伍德、南洛杉矶和阿纳海姆的案例研究,追溯了韩国人主导的商业利基的起源,说明了购物者和供应商如何利用旧货交换会上的非白人社会环境来协商阶级和社会差异。本文认为,与其将这些市场环境本质化为“拉丁”空间,不如将交换会议理解为跨越种族和阶级界限的物质和社会交换的肥沃场所。

"A Suitable Memorial": The History of Public Health Centers in Post–World War II Virginia “合适的纪念”:二战后弗吉尼亚州公共卫生中心的历史

abstract:The Caroline County War Memorial Health Center in Bowling Green, Virginia, was one of more than 1,200 public health centers constructed across the United States in the quarter century after World War II. In 1946, the landmark federal health-care legislation known as the Hill-Burton Act, among its many initiatives, offered local governments financial and technical support to build dedicated structures for their public health departments. As a result, hygienic and up-to-date quarters were constructed in nearly every seat of government in Virginia. These modern health centers connected science, medicine, and architecture in service of the mission to safeguard and improve the public health of all citizens. Although the buildings were extensions of federal and state legislation, their execution was controlled by local officials and their political and fiscal conservatism often inhibited architectural ambition. The designs for public health centers relied upon modernist design planning and materials but employed a broad array of applied styles influenced by their immediate architectural context. The public health centers of post–World War II Virginia embodied a distinctively local engagement between the political and architectural realms.
位于维吉尼亚州鲍灵格林的卡罗琳县战争纪念卫生中心是二战后25年间全美建造的1200多个公共卫生中心之一。1946年,具有里程碑意义的联邦医疗保健立法《希尔-伯顿法案》(Hill-Burton Act)在其众多举措中,为地方政府提供了财政和技术支持,以建立其公共卫生部门的专用结构。因此,弗吉尼亚几乎每个政府所在地都建造了卫生的、最新的宿舍。这些现代医疗中心将科学、医学和建筑结合起来,以维护和改善所有公民的公共健康。虽然这些建筑是联邦和州立法的延伸,但它们的执行是由当地官员控制的,他们的政治和财政保守主义往往抑制了建筑的野心。公共卫生中心的设计依赖于现代主义的设计规划和材料,但受到其直接建筑环境的影响,采用了广泛的应用风格。二战后弗吉尼亚州的公共卫生中心体现了政治和建筑领域之间独特的地方参与。

From Roman Temple to Baptist Church: Sin and Transformation in Southern Baptist Culture 从罗马神庙到浸信会:南方浸信会文化中的罪恶与转变

abstract:In 1958, the Vestavia Hills Baptist Church transformed a faux-Roman temple house (built in 1925) outside of Birmingham, Alabama, into a space appropriate for Baptist worship. Yet Vestavia's decades-long history of pagan worship, dancing, and drinking stood in direct conflict with Southern Baptist beliefs and cultural practices. This article considers an unusual example of ecclesiastical adaptive reuse to argue that Vestavia's pagan and entertaining past brought Baptist views on sin into sharp relief. Vestavia Hills Baptist Church also crafted a narrative centered on the building's transformation from pagan temple to Christian church to place the new congregation within a much longer Christian heritage.
1958年,维斯塔维亚山浸信会(Vestavia Hills Baptist Church)将一座建于1925年的仿罗马神庙房屋改造成了一个适合浸信会礼拜的空间。然而,维斯塔维亚长达数十年的异教徒崇拜、跳舞和饮酒的历史与美南浸信会的信仰和文化习俗直接冲突。这篇文章考虑了一个不同寻常的教会适应性再利用的例子,认为维斯塔维亚的异教徒和娱乐过去使浸信会对罪恶的看法得到了尖锐的缓解。维斯塔维亚山浸信会教堂也精心设计了一个以建筑从异教寺庙到基督教教堂的转变为中心的叙事,将新的会众置于一个更长的基督教遗产中。

Vestavia Hills Baptist Church also crafted a narrative centered on the building's transformation from pagan temple to Christian church to place the new congregation within a much longer Christian heritage.","PeriodicalId":41826,"journal":{"name":"Buildings & Landscapes-Journal of the Vernacular Architecture Forum","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2021-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91343254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

abstract:The postwar period of urban renewal in the United States has been critiqued for authoritarian planning that remade the landscape of cities without consulting residents. In the literature on New York City, the clashes between Robert Moses and Jane Jacobs are often used to illustrate tensions between bureaucratic and grassroots understandings of cities. By examining the work of Elisabeth Coit, a principal project planner for New York City's Housing Authority (NYCHA), this article complicates such oppositions between top-down and bottom-up planning. Coit's overlooked practice shows how a progressive architect incorporated the wishes of working-class tenants into the design of postwar public housing projects.Coit traveled to cities across the United States to study the housing of workers during the Great Depression. On the basis of her research, she criticized prevailing trends in mass-housing design and argued that architects should plan spaces that suited how tenants used their homes. When Coit became a NYCHA planner several years later, she put a tenant-first ethos into practice in planning the Bronx River Houses (1951). This paper also argues that her deference to the wishes of tenants resulted in designs that were intended to facilitate conventional gendered divisions of domestic labor and leisure.
摘要:美国战后的城市更新被批评为在没有征求居民意见的情况下重塑城市景观的威权规划。在关于纽约市的文献中,罗伯特·摩西和简·雅各布斯之间的冲突经常被用来说明官僚和基层对城市的理解之间的紧张关系。通过研究纽约市住房管理局(NYCHA)的首席项目规划师Elisabeth Coit的工作,本文使自上而下和自下而上规划之间的对立变得复杂。科伊特被忽视的实践展示了一个进步的建筑师如何将工人阶级租户的愿望融入战后公共住房项目的设计中。科伊特前往美国各个城市,研究大萧条时期工人的住房情况。在她的研究基础上,她批评了大规模住房设计的流行趋势,并认为建筑师应该规划适合租户使用房屋的空间。几年后,当科伊特成为纽约cha的规划师时,她在规划布朗克斯河屋(Bronx River Houses, 1951年)时,将房客优先的理念付诸实践。本文还认为,她对租户意愿的尊重导致了旨在促进传统的家务劳动和休闲性别分工的设计。
