Sport u urbanom pejzažu Zagreba i Splita

Na dodiru sportske, kulturne, historijske i urbane geografije svrha je ovoga rada analizirati hodonime (imena ulica i trgova) i ergonime (imena ugostiteljskih objekata) koji se nalaze u okolici sportskih centara. Istraživanje ispituje postoji li veza između hodonima i ergonima vezanih uz sport i lokacije sportskih objekata. Polazište je da prostorna bliskost (blizina) utječe na motivaciju imenovanja ulica i trgova te ugostiteljskih objekata. Time se u ovom radu sportu u gradskom pejzažu pristupa s prostornoga aspekta. Studija slučaja provedena je na primjeru Zagreba – najvećega i glavnoga grada Republike Hrvatske te Splita – drugoga najvećeg grada u državi. Osnovni je metodološki pristup korišten u analizi podataka statistički i interpretativni. Istraživanje je pokazalo da u određenoj mjeri postoji veza između hodonima i ergonima s jedne strane te lokacije sportskih objekata s druge strane. Sport transformira i oblikuje gradski pejzaž ne samo kroz sportski pejzaž (infrastrukturu) već i kroz ostale dijelove grada.
This paper examines sports, cultural, historical, and urban geography to analyse hodonyms (names of streets and squares) and ergonyms (names of hospitality establishments) located in the proximity of sports centres. The research examines whether there is a link between the hodonyms and ergonyms associated with sports and the location of sports facilities. The starting point of this research was the assumption that spatial proximity influences the motivation for naming streets, squares, and hospitality establishments. Accordingly, this paper approaches the concept of sports in the urban landscape from a spatial aspect. Case studies were conducted in the two largest cities of the Republic of Croatia: the capital city Zagreb, and Split. The main methodological approach used in the analysis of data was statistical and interpretative. The research showed that there is a degree of association between hodonyms and ergonyms and the location of sports facilities. Sports transform and shape the urban landscape, not only the sports landscape (in the form of infrastructure), but also other parts of the city.
