"From its ancient roots in the cities of classical Athenian, Roman and Byzantium empires, to the European Renaissance, public culture shows both a historic continuity and contemporary response to economic and social change. This work examines how and why the cultures have been planned and the extent to which cultural amenities have been considered in town planning."--BOOK JACKET.
