De esta manera, el autor hace un llamado a los profesionales que diseñan y planifican las ciudades para que tengan en cuenta en sus análisis y teorizaciones la visión humana, real y sensible que los escritores hacen del fenómeno urbano. El artículo se centra en las ciudades y en las novelas modernas, y aborda un período que se inicia en el siglo XVIII y finaliza en nuestros días. El autor concluye, a partir del análisis de la relación Ciudad/Literatura, el hecho de que las ciudades modernas han sido para sus habitantes, sobre todo, invivibles.application/pdfspaUniversidad Antonio Nariñohttp://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/34/262346-092X1909-3888REVISTA NODO; Vol. 4 Núm. 8 (2010); 59 - 72City and literature (relation)urbanism and the novel 18th – 21st centuries.Ciudad y literatura (relación)urbanismo y novela siglo XVIII – XXILas Unlivable Cities A fictional vision of the modern urban experienceLas Ciudades Invivibles Una visión novelada de la experiencia urbana modernaArtículo revisado por paresinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85123456789/5524oai:repositorio.uan.edu.co:123456789/55242024-10-09 22:54:57.936https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Acceso abiertometadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uan.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UANalertas.repositorio@uan.edu.co
