No presente texto, analisa-se a questão urbana sob a ótica cultural, considerando-se suas dimensões materiais, imateriais e míticas, partindo das relevantes contribuições de autores consagrados no contexto do pensamento geográfico contemporâneo, como Paul Claval e Yi-Fu Tuan. Para abordar essas questões, fez-se uma releitura de obras desses autores e procurou-se dialogar com outros pensadores de vertentes analíticas diferentes e também de outras áreas do conhecimento, com vistas a trazer uma abordagem alargada sobre a cidade e o urbano, na perspectiva cultural.

Nous analysons dans ce texte la question urbaine sous l‟angle culturel, en considérant ses dimensions matérielles, immatérielles et mythiques, en partant des signifiantes contributions d‟auteurs consacrés dans le contexte de la pensée géographique contemporaine, comme Paul Claval et Yi-Fu Tuan. Pour aborder ces questions, nous proposons une relecture des œuvres de ces auteurs et nous cherchons à dialoguer avec d‟autres penseurs de divers courants analytiques mais aussi d‟autres domaines de connaissance, dans le but d‟apporter une approche plus large de la ville et de l‟urbain, dans une perspective culturelle.
