- W2114639053 abstract "“Our senses are local, while our experience is regional. So the discussion will cover things as large as air basins and freeway systems and as small as sidewalks, seats, and signs” (LYNCH 1978 p.10). Such were the words that Kevin Lynch employed in his celebrated essay, dated of 1976, in which he envisages the possibilities for “managing the sense of a region”, and so, to enhance what he understood as the sensory quality of a region. Probably, this visionary thought seems to still hold true, even in present times, around thirty years after it was firstly stated. As a matter of fact, the reasoning behind this statement actually supports the theoretical background that underlies the present paper. In the paper, the prevalent reasoning is based on the assumption that a sharing of common attributes can be recognized as inherent to all (or at least to most of) the settlements that comprise an urban region. This is so because these attributes lie at the very rootedness of the region’s centres, assigning them a somehow distinguishable pattern that, in the end, becomes responsible for marks that evince the linkage each centre establishes with the region. In this case, perhaps the best term to express this connectedness is undoubtedly “rootedness”. The authors are borrowing this expression from the writings of the classic humanist geographer Yi-Fu Tuan, who describes the concept as: “Rootedness is an unreflective state of being in which the human personality merges with its milieu” (TUAN 1980 p.6). This is what is precisely meaningful for the purposes of the paper: to acknowledge the existence of a sort of amalgamation that develops from the interactions between people and environment. The manifestation of a people-environment fusing will be assumed as a basic issue in the paper arguments. Moreover, this sort of interacting also lies at the basis of the concept of place, a concept that will be often called throughout the paper’s contentions, and whose main lines explain that “A good place is one which, in some way appropriate to the person and her culture, makes her aware of her community, her past, the web of life, and the universe of time and space in which those are contained”. (LYNCH 1982 p.142). Accordingly, places that constitute a region, irrespective of their physical scales, will convey intrinsically mutual characteristics, which will work towards labelling all places under a regional umbrella-like unifying identity. Or, in other words, will gather them within a system collectively characterized by the regional rootedness of places." @default.
