Abstract

This article discusses the concept of a city based on the book "The Practice of Everyday Life," by Michel de Certeau and the film "The Dark Knight Rises," directed by Christopher Nolan. The author comments on the representation of the fictional Gotham City in the film and compares this with de Certeau's ideas on the meaning of the city. He also examines the degradation of the Gotham City as part of the blueprint of urban life presented by de Certeau. The role of urban dwellers in this scheme is also explored.
