Mexico--with its rich culture, full of symbol and myth, its beautiful cities, and its evocative ruins--is an excellent place to study the interplay of influences on space and place. In this volume, the authors consider the ideas and views that give the constructed spaces and buildings of Mexico--especially, of Queretaro--their particular ambience. They explore the ways the built world helps people find meaning and establish order for their earthly existence by mirroring their metaphysical assumptions, and they guide readers through time to see how the transformation of worldviews affects the urban evolution of a Mexican city. The authors, then, construct a "metaphysical archeology" of space and place in the built landscape of Mexico. In the process, they identify the intangible, spiritual aspects of this land. Not only scholars of architecture, but also archeologists and anthropologists--particularly those interested in Mexican backgrounds and culture--will appreciate the authors' approach and conclusions. 410 0$aStudies in architecture and culture ;$vno. 7. 606 $aCity planning$zMexico$zQuere?taro$xHistory 606 $aLandscape assessment$zMexico 606 $aPublic spaces$zMexico 606 $aUrbanization$zMexico$zQuere?taro$xHistory 615 0$aCity planning$xHistory. 615 0$aLandscape assessment 615 0$aPublic spaces 615 0$aUrbanization$xHistory. 676 $a307.1/2160972 700 $aNu?n?ez$b Fernando$g(Luis Fernando Nu?n?ez Urquiza)$01868550 701 $aAbonce$b Ramo?n$01868551 701 $aArvizu Garci?a$b Carlos$01868552 701 $aQuantrill$b Malcolm$f1931-2009.$01861570 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956886603321 996 $aSpace and place in the Mexican landscape$94476513 997 $aUNINA
