    A cidade de São Paulo e seus rios: uma história repleta de paradoxos by Isabel Cristina Moroz-Caccia Gouveia

    Published 2016-07-01
    “…This article presents a brief historic report of the relation of the city of São Paulo with its rives, creeks and streams, in four different moments: the foundation of the Villa de São Paulo dos Campos de Piratininga in 1554 up to the third quarters of XIX century; from the end of the XIX century up to 1930 (City of Coffee); from 1930 to 1950 (Industrial City) and, from 1950, when the conurbation process started and gave rise to the metropolitan area of São Paulo, until the current days (The Megalopolis). The research, based on historiography and iconography, points out the importance of the rich river network for the foundation and establishment of the city and shows how throughout time and as the city expanded, these hydric resources were deteriorated and came to be seen as obstacles to the urban growth, becoming targets of interventions and transformations. …”

    Published 2020-03-01
    “…This is because urbanization has produced new spatial expressions in the last decades, part of them, apprehended through a diversity of concepts in which the region stands out, among others, can be pointed: city-region, megaregion and urban- and others where the regional dimension - although not explicitly - is present, such as the urban corridors and megalopolis. Such concepts are the result of the increasing complexity of the metropolis and show the immense proportions that such spatialities have reached. …”

    Los Angeles, espace augmenté révélé par un genre littéraire : l’anthologie by Charles JOSEPH

    Published 2015-06-01
    “…This paper aims at exploring the atypical space of Los Angeles thanks to the literary genre of the anthology and the almost homological relationship that emanates between the megalopolis’s territory and this particular genre. Los Angeles has been a literary motif since its very creation and the city can be read in novels, autobiographies, journals, poems of chronicles written by authors just passing through, immigrants or natives of a place that rapidly became a culturally emblematic beacon. …”
