Abstract

The idea of historic fringe, either makes us smile or leaves us bemused. Why? In which sense are the centres of the cities historical but not their fringes? There can be many answers, all of them varied: fringes are not historic because it’s the new part of the city, because there aren’t old buildings, because its morphology is completely different from that of the Historic Centre. Yet those answers are only correct if we don’t leave the cultural scope that has created the concepts of fridge and Historic Centre.
