摘要

吉达塔楼的史学,从其起源问题到被沙特业主遗弃,在本文中是一个例子,说明不同的想象社会制度如何影响建筑史著作。本文基于对20世纪80年代和90年代沙特建筑师的书籍、期刊文章和博士论文的讨论,以及杰弗里·R·D·金(Geoffrey R.D.King,1999)的书章,强调了利用不同类型的来源并结合书面和口头数据收集方法的好处。它继续从后基础的角度审视支撑这些沙特阿拉伯建筑史研究的“中心想象意义”(Castoriadis)。文章认为,想象中的社会统一和集体身份的制度是建筑和建筑史评论写作的内在特征,并认为20世纪80年代和90年代的沙特建筑师担心他们的社会穆斯林身份的丧失。

Narratives of Continuity and Change in Jeddah
The historiography of Jeddah’s tower houses, from the question of their origin to their abandonment by their Saudi owners, serves as an example in this article of how different imaginary institutions of society inform writings on architectural history. Based on a discussion of books, journal articles and Ph.D. theses by Saudi architects from the 1980s and 1990s, as well as a book chapter by Geoffrey R.D. King (1999), this article emphasizes the benefits of drawing on different types of sources and combining both written and oral methods of data collection. It goes on to examine, from a post-foundational perspective, the ‘central imaginary significations’ (Castoriadis) underpinning these studies of Saudi Arabia’s architectural history. Arguing that the institution of an imaginary social unity and collective identity is intrinsic to critical writing on architecture and architectural history in general, the article suggest that the Saudi architects writing in the 1980s and 1990s were concerned about the perceived loss of their society’s Muslim identity.

期刊介绍: The Middle East Journal of Culture and Communication provides a transcultural academic sphere that engages Middle Eastern and Western scholars in a critical dialogue about culture, communication and politics in the Middle East. It also provides a forum for debate on the region’s encounters with modernity and the ways in which this is reshaping people’s everyday experiences. MEJCC’s long-term objective is to provide a vehicle for developing the field of study into communication and culture in the Middle East. The Journal encourages work that reconceptualizes dominant paradigms and theories of communication to take into account local cultural particularities.
