Παραδείγματα από το σώμα κειμένου για Ebenezer Howard
1. If she had a hatred – and she did nothing by halves – it was for the Radiant City Beautiful utopians, from Britain‘s Ebenezer Howard and his "decontaminated" zonal suburbs to the nightmare scenarios of Lewis Mumford and Le Corbusier.
2. It was a wish to preserve the natural heritage from the encircling suburbia that inspired planners to revive an idea initially devised by Ebenezer Howard for his "garden cities". Central to Howard‘s vision of a self–sustaining city had been a "country belt" (or what designer Raymond Unwin first called a green belt), which carefully demarcated the edge of the city and allowed urban residents easy access to the countryside.
3. Tracing a historical route, we might follow Voltaire‘s Doctor Pangloss, and say that the Enlightenment led to William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement, which led both to the Garden Cities of Ebenezer Howard and to the Bauhaus, which led to fascist architecture under Mussolini and to the podiums and stadiums of Nazi Germany, without which we would never have had Stevenage town centre.
