Citizen Design Science
The last decades in urban design research are characterised by a focus on technological aspects of cities which is commonly known as the smart city strategy. The concerns and interests of citizens are coming to the forefront nowadays with the awareness that a liveable city does not only consist of good infrastructure and sustainable energy supply but also citizen input and feedback. In this paper, we present Citizen Design Science as a new strate…

Antony and Cleopatra
This chapter surveys a range of key topics in Antony and Cleopatra , including space, rhetoric, love, politics, ethnicity and gender. It considers the dichotomy between Egypt and Rome, the contrast between linguistic hyperbole and onstage action, and the variety of source materials available to Shakespeare. The central characters are introduced as both historical agents and fictional creations. The chapter finally suggests the importance of the s…

Sea Changes
The sea has been the site of radical changes in human lives and national histories. It has been an agent of colonial oppression but also of indigenous resistance, a site of loss, dispersal and enforced migration but also of new forms of solidarity and affective kinship. Sea Changes re-evaluates the view that history happens mainly on dry land and makes the case for a creative reinterpretation of the role of the sea: not merely as a passage from o…
Mapping the waters
bernhard klein , Mapping the waters: sea charts, navigation, and Camões's Os Lusíadas This essay considers the links between the modern sea chart and sixteenth‐century voyage writing in the context of western navigational discourse. Charts need to be distinguished from maps: as mapping styles honed on land were confronted with the needs and urgencies of the maritime world, cartographic techniques were gradually redefined in terms of both referent…

Maps and the Writing of Space in Early Modern England and Ireland
The Whole World at One View
Maps, it has often been noted, were the objects of considerable enthusiasm in early modern England. 'I Daylie see many that delight to looke on Mappes',1 wrote Thomas Blundeville in 1589, echoing John Dee's famous comment, then almost two decades old, that 'some, for one purpose: and some, for an other, liketh, loueth, getteth, and vseth, Mappes, Chartes, & Geographicall Globes.' As Dee explained, the purposes to which these geographical artefact…
Mapping the Nation
The cartographic description of Britain, product of the combined effort of scholar and field worker, should not be discussed merely as a reflection of the growing accuracy of geographical knowledge or the increasing efficiency of modern surveying techniques. Cartography is not evidence of ‘a mechanical correspondence between map and landscape’ 1 and the early modern map of Britain is centrally implicated in the construction of a spatial paradigm …
