In undertaking a systematic analysis of urban materiality, this book
investigates one kind of material in Melbourne: stone. The work draws
on a range of pertinent, current theories that consider materiality,
assemblages, networks, phenomenology, resource and extraction
geographies, memorialisation, maintenance and repair, place identity,
skill, sensation and affect, haunting and the vitalism of the
non-human. In appealing to the general reader, academics and
students, this book provides a highly readable account, replete with
evocative examples and fascinating historical and contemporary stories
about stone in Melbourne.
