摘要: 14世纪瓦卢瓦王朝开始,法国国王越来越将巴黎作为自己权力的展现场所,这与当时的政治环境密切相关,内外交困使瓦卢瓦朝国王迫切寻求权力的合法性。空间成为一种策略,通过建筑、艺术、仪式以及城市规划,表现出王权对城市空间的控制,从而增强自身的权威,巩固王朝的统治。权力符号与空间要素的紧密结合,体现出中世纪城市与政治密切结合的特征,城市成为权力场所。

Abstract: Since the Valois Dynasty in 14th century, the French kings had been more and more interested in making Paris as a place for the demonstration of power. This was related to the political situation of that time. When the internal and external crises forced the kings to seek for the legitimacy of their kingship, they made the space as a strategy. Via buildings, arts, rituals as well as urban planning, the kings manifested their control upon the urban space. All their efforts were carried out in order to strengthen their own authority and to consolidate their rule. The symbols of power were integrated with space, which reflected the character that in the Middle Ages the cities were closely connected with politics. In other words, cities were space of the demonstration of power.
