The city is considered one of the most significant symbols of human cultural development, in the course of which speaking and writing in the city and about the city play a very special role. The interdisciplinary volume Chorographies. Les mises en discours de la ville opens up new perspectives on the complex phenomenon of the city and its discursivisation, which pursues a variety of chorographic goals and makes use of very different discursive practices to this end. Literature, for example, comprises an extensive corpus of representations of real and fictional cities, which play an important role in the creation of effective cityscapes. On the other hand, every city reveals its very own logic through its urban architecture, so that the city is not only designed to be perceivable to the eye, but also proves to be plannable and readable, as it is always constituted as a complex entity through the interaction of architectural as well as cultural and imaginary layers of meaning. In this sense, the city as a discourse is not the result of one, but rather the interplay of many and extremely diverse chorographies, whose forms of appearance and interpretation form the object of research in this anthology.
