About the book

"The book places Dublin at the centre of a discussion about the significance of the historic urban landscape. Bringing together experts in art history, architectural history, urban studies, literature and geography, this multidisciplinary collection examines key issues that affect cities across the world. It combines detailed studies of often-neglected aspects of Dublin’s past with case studies of Boston, Baghdad, London, Chicago, New York, Birmingham AL, Lisbon and Jerusalem. This thought-provoking collection frames the debates that will determine the way in which cities perceive, commemorate, preserve, conserve or destroy their historic urban landscapes"--Publisher's website.
