The Metaphysical City examines the metaphorical existence of the
city as an entity to further understand its significance on urban
planning and geography. It encourages an open-minded approach when
studying cities so as to uncover broader connecting themes that may
otherwise be missed. Case studies of New York, Paris, Cairo,
Mumbai, Tokyo, and Los Angeles explore a metaphor specific to each
city. This multidisciplinary analysis uses philosophical treatises,
geographical analysis, and comparative literature to uncover how
each city corresponds to the metaphor. As such, it allows the
reader to understand the city from six differing points of view.
This book would be beneficial to students and academics of urban
planning, geography, and comparative literature, in particular
those with an interest in a metaphysical examination of cities.
