ref. B9780761857648Paperback / softback. New. This book applies Kuhn's paradigm shift theory to the evolution of Spanish and Portuguese societies from the 1950s to the end of the twentieth century from the perspective of a similar shift in poetry. The paradigm in question is the "postmodern" social and thus literary paradigm popularized during the 1990s. paperback

ref. B9781848227293Hardback. New. Bringing together architectural urban and social historians this book charts the extraordinary changes that took place in British cities between the end of the Second World War and the early 21st century. This ambitious volume captures something of the diversity of the modern British city through a multi-disciplinary approach exploring gentrification and multiculturalism shopping and night life as well as demography and statistics. For much of the first two-thirds of the 20th century ‘modern’ in the British urban context meant the purging of the Victorian past. Even so much of the terraced housing and the monumental architecture of city centres still dated from the 19th century. Disdained by architectural critics in the first half of the 20th century structures like Covent Garden’s Market Building Manchester’s Royal Exchange and Liverpool’s Albert Dock would become pivots of the conservation and restoration movement which accompanied Britain’s ‘urban renaissance’ from the 1970s onwards. As this book shows after 1950 a series of long-term historical processes combined to transform the British city. Mass automobility brought with it motorways underpasses and flyovers. Deindustrialisation left a profound mark on large areas of urban Britain with enduring consequences for the communities affected. Immigration not only brought more diverse people and voices to British cities than ever before but with them a fresh variety of stores restaurants places of worship and venues for entertainment. Likewise urban planning and the fruits of consumerism left their mark in the ubiquitous presence of civic centres shopping malls and cultural quarters. The book shows how these processes did not operate separately but in complex inter-relationship with one another often producing unintended outcomes. The result was cities where the past and the present were juxtaposed adding to rather than diminishing their sense of place. This book will enrich our understanding of why British cities are as they are today in all their messiness and mutability. hardcover
