Produktbeschreibung
How does the man made environment affect the design
of urban life and its customs? The book concentrates
on the interaction between man and his settlement
within the context of the Roman city in Asia Minor
during the imperial period. The analysis is carried
out by examining the role of the nymphaea within the
context of urban architecture. Within the Roman urban
context, the nymphaea are treated as landmarks for
mentally mapping the city and as urban furniture
in a properly functioning urban public sphere.
Considering their role in the public sphere, as a
result, it is seen that the location of the nymphaea
within the city was not always dependent on the
location of water sources. They were often located
along the armature to be visible and memorable.
Therefore, as an urban element influencing public
activity, the nymphaea contributed to civic
consciosnes and the making of livable and legible
cities.
