City and Soul - The Reader

James Hillman is the pro-generator or contemporary father of "city and soul." Plato and Aristotle would take us back to its origins. Hillman began writing about "city and soul" in 1973 in Dallas, Texas and of late from Thompson, Connecticut. Over a span of 34 years he has produced 42 talks, papers, and scholarly articles found in City and Soul.

Here are a sampling of four articles of the 42:

icon Beauty Without Nature: Re-founding the City (146.63 kB)

Caution 1: This is a “slow” site or to quote ancient wisdom for Thailand: “Life is short we must move slowly.” 

Caution 2: you will not find here a formula or the seven steps to city and soul, because city and soul must be experienced -- or felt. With soul making, you feel and pull some threads to weave something that fits the place.  So select what inspires, provokes or ticks you off, as that is what you are suppose to carry into your soul making.  City and Soul, is like Christopher Alexander’s building process:  an unfolding.
