Story City:Five-Dimensional Narrative and Strategic Communication of City
This study introduces a new concept,"City is story",from the perspective of narratology,differing from conventional urban research.Based on this new concept,the study also proposes a set of concepts,paths,and strategic methods for recognizing,building,and transmitting city around three theoretical propositions:story-based cognition,story-based narrative,and story-based communication of the city.The specific points of view include five aspects and can be summarized as follows.First,the city is a storytelling space and a narrative space with readability,communicability,and experiential depths.Second,the story city is composed of five narrative dimensions,namely person,event,items,field,and environment.Building a story city should be based on the above five-dimensional model.Third,to tell the story of city,we must start from the five-dimensional model of the story city and carry out strategic planning as well as communication around the five aspects of resources,positioning,content,communication and action.
