Over the last twenty years, Jeff Malpas’ research has involved his engagement with architects and other academics around the issues of place, architecture and landscape and particularly the way these practitioners have used the work of Martin Heidegger. In Rethinking Dwelling, Malpas’ primary focus is to rethink of these issues in a way that is directly informed by an understanding of place and the human relation it. With essays on a range of architectural and design concerns, as well as engaging with other thinkers on topics including textuality in architecture, contemporary high-rise construction, the significance of the line, the relation between building and memory and the idea of authenticity in architecture, this book departs from the traditional phenomenological focus and provides students and scholars with a new ontological assessment of landscape and architecture. As such, it may also be used on other ‘spatial’ or ‘topographic’ disciplines including geography, sociology, anthropology, and art in which the ‘spatial turn’ has been so important.

Malpus succeeds at a difficult task: to garner fresh insights from already well-trodden territory. Sensitive to the dynamic relationships between organisms/persons and environments/lifeworlds, the book explores the historically unfolding modes of being-in-place. The tangle of major figures and positions is laid out with admirable clarity, as are the phenomena of dwelling, home, authenticity, identity, displacement, and exclusion.
