  • City of Corfu : the Tranformation of the Physiognomy of a Capital City to a Provisional One Through Testimonies from Literature Athanassios BALERMPAS
    reviewed paper City of Corfu : The Tranformation of the Physiognomy of a Capital City To A Provisional One Through Testimonies From Literature Athanassios BALERMPAS National Technical University of Athens, Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Athens, Greece, Email: [email protected] 1 INTRODUCTION The historical line of a city has a significant impact in the formation of its physical and emotional physiognomy which the city projects. It plays a major part in the creation of the speech (logos) and myth (mythos) that determines each significant urban formation. Let us not forget that the speech and the myth establish the ideological foundations of a city. However, the historical context does not only influence the above two elements of its physiognomy; it also plays a central part in the formation of its society, and the architectural space is a significant factor in determining society formation, according to the theories of Rossi, Hiller and Hanson1 ; in turn both society and architecture are defined significantly by the historical and, consequently, social events. In addition, we should not forget that the inheritance of the historical events in a city determines the social, political and economic system that governs the city. His system, according to Joseph and Julia Stefanou2 , is the main factor for the physiognomy of the city, since it influences its form, style, size and development. Nobody can argue that one of Vienna’s most celebrated characteristics was the period in history when the city was the capital of the empire of the Hapsburgs. Similarly, all the other historical events that happened in the same space have also left their traces in the image of the city.

It argues that family was crucial in forming the main characteristics of the labour force. The familial division of labour according to gender and age is examined not only as a decisive determinant in the categorisation of work positions as skilled and unskilled but also as a factor that defined the temporality or permanence of labour. It also focuses on the role of local and family networks and their effect on the labour market. These questions, thoroughly discussed by labour historians, will be applied to the case of Corfu, in an effort to complete the Greek paradigm. Over the last 30 years, research has repeatedly questioned the significance of the sole male breadwinner family and started focusing on a workforce that had been neglected, namely female and juvenile family members. Their participation in raising family income, once downplayed, has become a key subject in understanding labour relations since the emergence of capitalism.1 Social and economic history have systematically discussed the role of the family not only as a primary provider of capital and labour to commercial firms and industries but also as an institution whose members are subordinate to the social relations within it.

We invite you to join us! more information: www.annahiking.nl (31-3-2020) IKWS210I: Selection Corfu Trail off-season (8-day tour from one location) About AnnaHiking and the Corfu Trail In 1991 we visited Greece for the first time. Our love for the country, the culture, the climate, the food, the language and the Greek has grown ever since. We feel at home here and want to communicate this feeling to others. Most people are familiar with the Greek “islands with beautiful beaches”. Many islands also boast a splendid inland with historical paths, ideal for hiking. Corfu is such an island with much more on offer than beaches alone, and we’d love to introduce it to you. The Corfu Trail is only to be hiked as a trekking in May, June, September and October. The reason is the weather and availability of accommodation along the track. We’d like to offer you the possibility to walk some of the Trail also out of this season. This trip is organized by Aperghi Travel, our Greek colleagues on Corfu. They check and maintain the paths, arrange the (luggage) transfers and the on-site support. As self-guided hiker they’ll provide you with the route descriptions and all other necessary information.
