Abstract
For the first time Emil Bønnelycke’s Asfaltens Sange (1918) is examined in the context of Marc Augé’s theory of places and non-places in this paper. The analysis of Asfaltens Sange focuses on the implicit presence of places and non-places. Reading Bønnelycke in content of Augé opens up for a new research position; it elucidates his position to ‘supermodernity’. Places and non-places are palimpsests in Bønnelycke’s text about Copenhagen’s urbanity. The main subject in Asfaltens Sange is the walk in Copenhagen. The big city is considered a space of formation that should be ‘read’ to disclose its anthropological status.
