In
these essays, I am particularly interested in your thoughts
and reactions to the concepts and issues that are raised in
the readings. It is an opportunity for you to reflect and
process the material, and to develop your own view on these
issues. Therefore, do not simply reiterate what is in the
readings but describe your reactions to, and reflections on,
the material.
Emotional Relationships
to Place: Attachment and Identity
1. What is place attachment? Place identity? How are they
similar? Distinct? How do you think peoples' emotional bonds
to place affect their lives?
2. According to
Cooper-Marcus, how can our environmental memories influence
our current lives? Provide examples from the chapter and from
your own life, if possible.
3. Describe Hester's
community design process in Manteo. How did he incorporate
notions of place attachment in his work? How did that impact
the redevelopment project?
