Short description:

The subject of History of urban planning is planned for Spatial Management as a two-semester lecture. The aim of the subject is to provide the necessary historical knowledge on the development of urban thought throughout history, with particular emphasis on the European continent from antiquity to the Renaissance.

Providing this knowledge is supposed to accompany the introduction of design subjects, so that the student has the full opportunity to use the achievements of previous generations by starting work on his own design concepts.

Particular emphasis is placed on the development and interpenetration of ideas within the broadly understood European heritage.

Full description:

The principle of the classes is based on showing the cause-effect sequence, on the triad of mutually complementary concepts:

1) an independent facility, team or city - its concept or implementation,

2) characters, i.e. the person of the creator as an outstanding individuality of the era and

3) events or sequence of events constituting the historical background.

One of these three concepts highlighted as the most important is the key to identifying the others and understanding the entire configuration.
