| Sumario: | This paper discusses the night, this other face of the city. When we interrelate night and city, the definition of night opens to a diversity of values, interpretations, and questions. The signs of the nocturnal sky translated into language forms demonstrate how the relationships between heaven and Earth were part of our cultural construction, but today these relationships are distant from contemporary urban society, as if the night was forgotten, invisible or even residual. The landscape at night is also home for a nocturnal nature, often invisible to our eyes, either because of its own characteristics, but also because of our lack of understanding and knowledge. This is reflected in the absence of this dynamic in the planning and design of the cities, demonstrating gaps that need to be discussed considering the changes in environmental values and the environmental issue itself that imposes as a challenge for the metropolis. Thus, this paper aims to clarify - among the multiple facets of the nocturnal city - the environmental dimension that night contains, as a way of promoting a critical debate about these discussions in the contemporary city. By deviating from a predominantly anthropocentric look towards the night of cities, we look for ways to approach the nocturnal city that can align the dynamics of urban nocturnal biodiversity. |
