The past in the present

the immediate historicity of Asia

pp. 37-70

This chapter examines the philosophy of history and the awkwardness of its fit with Asia and its architecture. It elaborates architectural theorisations of Asia from a perspective of historiography. Philosophical ideas in historiography, phenomenology, postcolonialism and cultural geography are elaborated in the chapter along with analyses of both representative and pervasive architectural phenomena in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, the UK and relevant European cases which testify to the schematisation of contemporary Asian scenarios in historiography.
