Theory And Practice: Socio-political And Philosophical Dynamics In The Evolution Of The Grid-plan In Ancient Greek CitiesIsik, Ozgur Emre 01 July 2008 (has links) (PDF)
Social, political and philosophical dynamics which supposedly played an important role in the formation of the grid-plan in ancient Greek cities are explored in this thesis. In this respect, the thesis aims to expose the socio-political and philosophical matrix of Greek society in which the grid was implemented with an emphasis on the concepts of equality, rationality and geometric harmony. Having formulated a theoretical framework, it concentrates on several cases from different regions and contexts in the Mediterranean in order to confirm this framework. The thesis investigates the nature of the Greek grid-plan within three main parts / first the grid-plans of non-Greek cultures with which ancient Greeks had close contacts / second the relationship between the grid-plan and political power in Greek poleis with special attention to the formation of & / #8216 / egalitarian& / #8217 / ideals in society / third the physical expressions of the philosophical concepts of perfection, mathematical regularity and geometrical equality in the cosmos on urban pattern.
