Coming to Rest: Aesthetics of Cosmopolitanism and Mobility in Marseille

This article traces the history of cosmopolitanism in Marseille as well some of the major aesthetic developments in its Vieux Port over the last century. I consider a series of moments from the Vichy government’s destruction of the Vieux Port in an effort to stamp out resistance during WWII, to the transformation of La Criée aux Poissons from a fish market to a theater in the 1970s, to the recent pedestrianization of the shoreline and the construction of the Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations. The Vieux Port’s aesthetic transformations have reflected prevailing sentiments about the meaning of Marseille’s past and its hope for the future. While the recent prevalence of cosmopolitanism in Marseille’s year as European Capital of Culture and its urban revitalization efforts is striking, the concept has been used as a narrative for the city’s revitalization since at least the 1970s. Whereas some have argued that the spaces of cosmopolitanism are hyper‐mobile, abstract non‐spaces, I argue that Marseille’s cosmopolitanism is historical and linked as much to spaces of immobility as spaces of mobility. Far from distancing itself from history and tradition, Marseille has incorporated its ancient past into a cosmopolitan culture‐led urban renewal project. Ethnographically examining pedestrian traffic around the port reveals that the spaces where people come to rest are as essential as the spaces of constant movement and flow in charting cosmopolitanism in the city.

休息:马赛世界主义与流动的美学

本文追溯了上世纪马赛世界主义的历史以及其老港口的一些主要美学发展。我考虑了一系列的时刻,从维希政府摧毁维约港开始,以消除第二次世界大战期间的阻力,再到1970年代LaCriéeaux Poissons从鱼市场到剧院的转变,以及最近的步行街。海岸线和欧洲和地中海文明博物馆的建设。老港口的美学转变反映了人们对马赛过去的意义以及对未来的希望的普遍看法。尽管最近在马赛当年的世界主义作为欧洲文化之都及其城市复兴努力非常流行,至少从1970年代开始,这个概念就被用作城市复兴的叙述。尽管有人认为世界主义的空间是高度流动的,抽象的非空间,但我认为马赛的世界主义是历史的,与流动性空间和流动性空间一样多。马赛并没有远离历史和传统,而是将其古老的历史融入了一个由大都会文化主导的城市更新项目中。根据人种学研究港口周围的行人交通情况,我们发现,人们休息的空间与绘制城市大都会主义的不断流动和流动的空间一样重要。我认为马赛的世界主义是历史性的,与流动性和流动性都息息相关。马赛并没有远离历史和传统,而是将其古老的历史融入了一个由大都会文化主导的城市更新项目中。根据人种学研究港口周围的行人交通情况,我们发现,人们休息的空间与绘制城市大都会主义的不断流动和流动的空间一样重要。我认为马赛的世界主义是历史性的,与流动性和流动性都息息相关。马赛并没有远离历史和传统,而是将其古老的历史融入了一个由大都会文化主导的城市更新项目中。根据人种学研究港口周围的行人交通情况,我们发现,人们休息的空间与绘制城市大都会主义的不断流动和流动的空间一样重要。
