As bodies shape city life, so the city?s spaces, structures, economies, politics, rhythms, and atmospheres reciprocally shape the urban soma. This collection of original essays explores the somaesthetic qualities and challenges of city life (in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas) from a variety of perspectives ranging from philosophy, urban theory, political theory, and gender studies to visual art, criminology, and the interdisciplinary field of somaesthetics. Together these essays illustrate the aesthetic, cultural, and political roles and trials of bodies in the city streets. 410 0$aStudies in Somaesthetics;$vvolume02. 606 $aCity and town life 606 $aStreetscapes (Urban design) 606 $aAesthetics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCity and town life. 615 0$aStreetscapes (Urban design) 615 0$aAesthetics. 676 $a307.76 702 $aShusterman$b Richard 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511621603321 996 $aBodies in the streets$92552591 997 $aUNINA
