林赛·布雷姆纳的近作《约翰内斯堡,一座城市中的冲突世界》为南非城市约翰内斯堡的研究作出了贡献,是一部及时而深刻的著作。人们可以从字里行间感受到,虽然这部书是关于约翰内斯堡的,它在某种程度上却是熟悉的,在这个全球化的世界中,它与更加宽泛的城市体验有关,这部书由6个专题组成,并用3种文字印行,它追踪着约翰内斯堡这个城市开始变化时所发生的故事。这部书中的各个专题都是关于边界模糊的地方,并聚焦于人们体验中的边缘、间隙,以及中介空空,这些空间在一个膨胀中的后种族隔离时期的大都市中,把那些原本被割裂开的人,以及他们的居住场所联系在一起,林赛·布雷姆纳发现了一个充满了矛盾的城市,她将其阐释为一系列“冲突的世界”。一个以差异和杂合为特征的场所,在一个处于生成阶段的城市形态中被清晰化了--它兼具混乱性和多变性,并以复杂的方式重塑自身。 Lindsay Bremner’s recent work “Johannesburg, A World in Conflict in a City” contributed to the study of the South African city of Johannesburg and is a timely and profound work. People can feel from the lines between the words. Although this book is about Johannesburg, it is familiar to some extent. In this globalized world, it is related to the broader urban experience. This book consists of 6 books. Thematic compositions, printed in three languages, track the story of what took place when the city of Johannesburg began to change. The topics in this book are all about the ambiguity of the boundary and focus on the margins and gaps in people’s experiences, as well as the intermediation of empty spaces that were inflated in the post-apartheid metropolis and those that were originally The split people and their place of residence are linked together. Lindsay Bremner discovered a city full of contradictions that she interpreted as a series of “conflicting worlds.” A place characterized by differences and heterogeneity is clearly defined in an urban form in the generation phase - it is both chaotic and variegated and reshapes itself in a complex way.
