| description | The article proposes an analysis about Bogota through the chronicles and photographs published between 1916 and 1920 in Cromos magazine emphasizing on the repercussions and implications that urban structures have had upon city’s inhabitants—, as a research method that complements the conventional historical analysis offered by architecture and urbanism. It studies urban life as portrayed by renowned journalists of the time bringing out the significant progresses made on mobility and building technology, the problems going off by the lack of potable water and the deficient supply of public utilities, the burning down of emblematic constructions, the starvation of some of its residents, the diseases that assailed the population, and the arrival of modernity, among others. As a conclusion, the article states that journalistic chronicles are a valuable source of non-visual information that allow the observation of some city aspects that are impossible to spot from within the traditional referencing of plans and photographs in architectural and urban discourses. |

El artículo elabora un análisis de la ciudad de Bogotá a partir de crónicas y fotografías publicadas en la revista Cromos, entre los años 1916 y 1920, haciendo énfasis en las significaciones y repercusiones que las estructuras urbanas tienen sobre sus habitantes, como método de investigación que complementa los análisis realizados por la historia convencional de la arquitectura y la ciudad. Se estudia la vida urbana que retrataron los más destacados periodistas de aquella época, destacando los avances en cuanto a arquitectura y movilidad, la problemática que representaba la carencia de agua potable y la deficiencia de los servicios municipales, los incendios de los edificios más emblemáticos de la ciudad, el hambre de sus pobladores y las enfermedades que los afectaban, o la llegada de la modernidad, entre otras cosas. Se concluye, entre otras cosas, que las crónicas periodísticas son valiosas fuentes de información, no visuales, que permiten observar aspectos de la historia de las ciudades imposibles de analizar desde las fuentes habituales de la arquitectura y la ciudad, como los planos y las fotografías. 2021-11-10T01:00:04Z 2021-11-10T01:00:04Z 2013-06-14 Artículo revisado por pares info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 http://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/84 http://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/5564 spa http://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/nodo/article/view/84/66 Acceso abierto Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf Universidad Antonio Nariño 2346-092X 1909-3888 REVISTA NODO; Vol. 7 Núm. 14 (2013); 49 - 64 |
