Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Designed for Life: Architecture and design in Cork city, 1900-90 is the first detailed study of twentieth century design dedicated to an Irish provincial city and sets the standard for examining this fascinating period. Whilst the political and military history of Cork have been exhaustively studied, the physical changes to the city have largely been ignored, and little published on the houses, pubs, factories and other quotidian buildings where its people spent their lives. Whilst focusing on buildings, the book also includes examples of interior design, graphic design and corporate identity.Though a few notable buildings (the Modern masterpiece of the church of Christ the King, and the 1915 Celtic Revival Honan Chapel) have been explored, the design history of the city has only been briefly investigated. In the absence of extensive detailed, well-referenced and solid research, the twentieth century architectural patrimony of the city has been largely left to fend for itself, with the result that many important buildings have been demolished or insensitively altered. The book consists of an Introduction setting the scene for the place of design in Ireland and Cork in the twentieth century and a Conclusion which questions the city's self-identification as 'The Rebel City'. The remaining ten chapters are arranged chronologically with each focusing on a different building typology. As well as exploring the design of the city, this book aims to do three other things. By presenting the social and design history of the city it will raise awareness of the value and uniqueness of what remains, promoting a pride in the urban realm. Secondly, it is intended that it will spur the curiosity of other researchers, both amateur and professional, to study the field further, picking up the threads laid down here. Finally, it will provide reliable data which can be used by those seeking to protect and restore surviving buildings to their former glory. Whilst the military history of Cork city has been exhaustively studied, the physical development has largely been ignored.

Paperback. Etat : New. Defining the principles and practices of walking as critical pedagogy, this book engages with social questions and challenges related to understandings of the Anthropocene.Through a series of chapters that operationalize walking as a form of participatory pedagogy, it explores issues including migration and borders, sustainability and climate change, gender and feminist thought, the labour market, crime and rehabilitation, and urban life and regeneration. Showing how walking enables us to learn creatively, convivially and critically on the move in city spaces, while thinking relationally, the authors demonstrate the importance of space, time and place: the layers of history embedded in the present, and the importance of active, embodied, participatory, collaborative, creative and place based learning.A pioneering approach to walking as a form of engagement and learning, Walking as Critical Pedagogy will appeal to researchers and students across the social sciences interested in new methods and research methodologies, and creative ways of teaching and learning about - and engaging with - major global issues in society.…
