The Urban Dialogue: An analysis of the use of space in the Roman city of Empúries, Spain

Product Description


Based on the author's doctoral thesis, this is a study of the layout, design, building functions, activity areas and the use of space in general, in the Spanish city of Empúries. Also known as Ampurias, this site, located just north of Barcelona, has been well excavated and serves as an excellent case study. Kaiser combines the use of GIS and other statistical methods with an interpretation of the arrangement and development of urban space and the people, desired functions and social issues that dictated it.
