    Sammanfattning : The initial goal of this effort is to develop a discussion on urban design process and thinking that acknowledges the needs of places with meaning in the design of the urban waterfront. The thesis addresses the fact that the problematic of the coastal formulation is intricate, comprising not only aspects related to the spatial organization and design of its domain but also shared properties originated by the presence and movement of the perceiving subject in the area.

  3. 3. Spatial paths to holiness : Literary ‘Lived Spaces’ in Eleventh-Century Byzantine Saints’ Lives

    Författare :Myrto Veikou; Ingela Nilsson; Stephanos Efthyniadis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Byzantine studies; spatial studies; Grekiska; Greek;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores literary spatialities, that is the notion of space and its agency in comprehending the deeper plot and meaning of two eleventh-century Byzantine hagiographical texts: the Life of St Lazaros from Mount Galesion, written by Gregory the Cellarer (Γρηγορίου του κελλαρίτη Βίος Λαζάρου τοῦ ἐν τῷ  Γαλησίῳ), and the Life of St Symeon the New Theologian, written by Niketas Stethatos (Νικήτα Στηθάτου Βίος Ἁγίου Συμεὼν τοῦ Νέου Θεολόγου). The study proposes a narratological inquiry of the broader meaning of ‘spatialities’ in Byzantine texts, which focuses on the employment of a ‘spatial’ language or ‘spatial’ narrative techniques and strategies.

  5. 5. Situated Embodiment : Studies in the emergence of spatial meaning

    Författare :Jordan Zlatev; Chris Sinha; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Languages and linguistics; Språkvetenskap; General Linguistics; allmän språkvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : What does it mean to know a language? How do children acquire language, seemingly spontaneously? How is intersubjective linguistic meaning made possible? How are people able to understand utterances which they have not heard before? General questions such as these are of primal concern for modem theoretical linguistics. At the same time the dominant theoretical approach to answering them, generativism, has given rise to persistent anomalies and confusions. LÄS MER
