This is the first work of modern scholarship to treat the whole of Kyotos premodern urban history, from the 8th century to about 1600. As an imperial city planned according to Chinese geomantic models and embedded with status specific architectural codes, the author takes the position that the cityscape itself can be read as a text rich in information on politics, religion, and daily life.
Explores built environments and visual narratives in Asia via cartography, icons, and symbols in different historical settings. It grows out of a three-year project focusing on cultural exchange in the making of Asia's boundaries as well as its architectural styles and achievements. Regions and conditions covered in Architecturalized Asia include French Indochina, Iran, post-Soviet Central Asia, Japanese landscape, and the construction of the Afro-Asian built environment.
