  • 'A Deconstructed Shrine': Locating Absence and Relocating Identity In
    Stephan Laqué ‘A deconstructed shrine’: Locating Absence and Relocating Identity in Rodinsky’s Room (2000) This essay considers the post-Freudian concept of the crypt as a spatial frame for the construction of hybrid identities. It traces the topography of the crypt in the Museum of Immigration and Diversity at 19 Princelet Street and in Iain Sinclair and Rachel Lichtenstein’s Rodinsky’s Room, which is based on the disappearance of David Rodinsky from his room above the synagogue at 19 Princelet Street. While Lichtenstein seeks to uncover and document the history of Rodinsky in order to construct a Jewish identity for herself, Sinclair’s narrative respects the elusive nature of Rodinsky and ensures the room remains ‘empty’ and unfixed. Even as it elicits widely heterogeneous readings and approaches, the crypt emerges as a structure which resists appropriation and preserves the alterity of the other within the self, a structure which is pertinent not only to buildings and texts, but also to societies and cultures. 1. A Museum of Immigration and Diversity? The backdrop for this essay is Spitalfields, Tower Hamlets, in London’s East End. For centuries immigrants on their way from the docks of London into the centre of the city have settled in this area. In the late 17th century, Huguenots fleeing religious persecution at the hands of Louis XIV came. King Charles II offered sanctuary to the French protestants and Spitalfields came to be known as ‘Petty France’. During the 18th century, Catholics from Ireland arrived and were followed in the latter half of the 19th century by Jewish immigrants from all parts of Eastern Europe driven by pogroms in their home countries.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

    We believe that there would be a benefit to many local residents, who are doing their best to comply with the new regulations, if the space currently allocated to motor traffic along some of the borough’s shopping streets could be reduced and/or private through-motor traffic prohibited. This would leave more space for people walking, queuing for groceries and, of course, riding cycles for exercise/essential transport. This would reduce the risk to pedestrians of walking in the road, and help them maintain a separation of >2m, thereby reducing the potential for transmission between people of the Covid-19 virus. We would, of course, envisage that public transport and emergency vehicles would be excluded from any through-route prohibitions, and any interventions may expedite emergency access in formerly congested areas. We would support any modal filtering on residential roads and our members believe that interventions (modal filtering, traffic reduction or reducing space for driving and increasing it for people walking and cycling) would be particularly valuable on the following streets: • Broadway Market The gates that are used to prevent motor traffic on market days could be closed during the lock-down period to enable people to walk on the road to enable them to keep 2 meters apart. The removal of through motor traffic and parking would allow enough space for people to use the street safely by foot or bike. Deliveries to shops could be facilitated either by opening one of the gates or by timed openings. Ideally, this should be combined with a modal filter on Cat and Mutton Bridge (permitting bus access) to remove through traffic from the entire cell.
