Abstract

 The central proposal of this article is to analyze the representations about the cities that emerge in the fragments of several reports and records of their inhabitants. In the “reports of the space” men and women codify and distinguish symbolically spaces and places, which are connected to several temporal dimensions. Gathered in a narrative plot, they show cultural practices that are organizers of the spaces and constitutive of the urban configuration.
