Book, 19th Century City, A[LS]

Language: Brazilian Portuguese. Railway stations, shopping malls, universal exhibitions, large avenues and industrial districts are some of the spaces that characterise The 19th Century City.. It is this nineteenth-century city, with its seafronts, its peripheral rings, its garden suburbs and its business blocks, the matrix of the contemporary metropolis, that Guido Zucconi, professor of history of architecture at the University of Venice, studies in this book, which the publisher Perspectiva publishes in the Debates collection, following on from The City of the First Renaissance, by Donatella Calabi, First Lesson in Urbanism and The City of the Twentieth Century, by Bernardo Secchi, already released.
