1000 tulosta hakusanalla Owen Podger
Nur wenige Planer w rden heute in Erw gung ziehen, dass die perfekte Stadt die Form eines W rfels haben sollte, wie die himmlische Stadt in der Offenbarung des Johannes dargestellt wird. Eine solche Form kann nur dann perfekt sein, wenn kein Bedarf an Sonne, Mond oder frischer Luft mehr besteht. Johannes gibt die Einwohnerzahl mit 144.000 an. Heute w rde man dies als Kleinstadt bezeichnen. Aber jede Metapher einer Stadt, ob als Maschine oder Markt, als Organismus oder Organisation, als Ort der Macht oder des Lernens oder als Utopie, kann uns dazu anregen, ein neues Verst ndnis von St dten zu erkunden und einen weiteren Quergedanken dar ber anzustellen, wie wir sie besser verwalten k nnen.
Peu de planificateurs aujourd'hui consid reraient que la ville parfaite devrait avoir la forme d'un cube, comme la ville c leste r v l e dans l'Apocalypse de Jean. Une telle forme ne peut tre parfaite que lorsqu'il n'y a plus besoin de soleil, de lune ou d'air frais. Selon Jean, la population de la ville tait de 144 000 habitants. Aujourd'hui, on la classerait dans la cat gorie des petites villes. Mais chaque m taphore de la ville, qu'il s'agisse d'une machine ou d'un march , d'un organisme ou d'une organisation, d'un lieu de pouvoir ou d'apprentissage, ou encore d'une utopie, peut nous inciter explorer une nouvelle compr hension des villes et une autre r flexion lat rale sur la mani re dont nous pourrions mieux les g rer.

Owen Lovejoy and the Coalition for Equality
Jane Moore; William Moore
University of Illinois Press

sidottu
Antislavery white clergy and their congregations. Radicalized abolitionist women. African Americans committed to ending slavery through constitutional political action. These diverse groups attributed their common vision of a nation free from slavery to strong political and religious values. Owen Lovejoy’s gregarious personality, formidable oratorical talent, probing political analysis, and profound religious convictions made him the powerful leader the coalition needed. Owen Lovejoy and the Coalition for Equality examines how these three distinct groups merged their agendas into a single antislavery, religious, political campaign for equality with Lovejoy at the helm. Combining scholarly biography, historiography, and primary source material, Jane Ann Moore and William F. Moore demonstrate Lovejoy's crucial role in nineteenth-century politics, the rise of antislavery sentiment in religious spaces, and the emerging congressional commitment to end slavery. Their compelling account explores how the immorality of slavery became a touchstone of political and religious action in the United States through the efforts of a synergetic coalition led by an essential abolitionist figure.
