Abstract
This dossier aims to enrich the body of work on the iconography of cities through new research, within a broad and interdisciplinary framework encompassing history, art history, architecture, geography, anthropology, and philosophy. Contributions combining methodological rigour with analytical breadth are particularly welcome, as are essays without an empirical dimension that explore, question, and reassess inherited frameworks while proposing new challenges.
