摘要
摘要这篇视觉文章和解释性文本介绍了我以实践为导向的研究,重点是中世纪作家克莉丝汀·德·皮赞的两部作品。第一部作品《女人之城之书》(the book of the city of Ladies,1405)将写书(一篇反对制度性厌女症的论文)与想象中的城市建设相结合,被视为一份原始女权主义宣言。我关注的是文本中描述的研究不足的建筑和城市寓言,它想象了一个只有女性居住、由女性为她们建造的乌托邦,以及手稿中展示城市建设三个不同阶段的照明。受亚里士多德《政治学》的启发,在《身体政治书》(the Book of the body Politic,1404)中,德·皮赞(de Pizan)重新审视了古希腊的隐喻,即一个国家或社会及其机构被视为一个生物人体,她提出了中世纪政治理论的版本,我将其与她的寓言城市联系起来。
The Female Body Politic: Enacting the Architecture of The Book of the City of Ladies
Abstract This visual essay and explanatory text presents my practice-led research focusing on two works by medieval author Christine de Pizan. Conflating the act of writing a book – a thesis against institutional misogyny – with the construction of an imaginary city, the first work, The Book of the City of Ladies, 1405, has been seen as a proto-feminist manifesto. I focus on the under-researched architectural and urban allegory depicted in the text, which imagines a utopia inhabited solely by women and constructed for them by a woman and on the manuscript's accompanying illuminations displaying three different stages of the construction of the city. Inspired by Aristotle’s Politics and revisiting the ancient Greek metaphor, by which a state or society and its institutions are conceived of as a biological human body, in The Book of the Body Politic, 1404, de Pizan offers her version of a medieval political theory, which I connect with her allegorical city.
期刊介绍:
Architecture and Culture, the international award winning, peer-reviewed journal of the Architectural Humanities Research Association, investigates the relationship between architecture and the culture that shapes and is shaped by it. Whether culture is understood extensively, as shared experience of everyday life, or in terms of the rules and habits of different disciplinary practices, Architecture and Culture asks how architecture participates in and engages with it – and how both culture and architecture might be reciprocally transformed. Architecture and Culture publishes exploratory research that is purposively imaginative, rigorously speculative, visually and verbally stimulating. From architects, artists and urban designers, film-makers, animators and poets, from historians of culture and architecture, from geographers, anthropologists and other social scientists, from thinkers and writers of all kinds, established and new, it solicits essays, critical reviews, interviews, fictional narratives in both images and words, art and building projects, and design hypotheses. Architecture and Culture aims to promote a conversation between all those who are curious about what architecture might be and what it can do.
