description From the re-release of the book by Jane Jacobs, The Death and Life of Great American Cities in 2011, fifty years after its first publication, questions about Colombian cities arise such as: what happened in those cities, in the Colombian context and Colombians during those fifty years? Why are Jane Jacobs' questions, although referring to a model of the postwar American city, still valid in our context? This approaches a method to get into the spirit of the times, working with books and texts about the city that allow discovering in them the "spirit of time". Hence this work emerges under the hypothesis: the moments of articulation and change in the continuity of history can be identified through certain texts which impacted the spirit of time, and this is mediated through a second hypothesis explaining the research meaning and its goals: the completion of research comes from the interpretation of texts in light of the spirit of time and the local conditions. So it can be established that the spirit of the Colombian urban environment experienced a strong influence of the so-called postmodern authors who questioned the breaking of forms, uses and meanings of the traditional city in projects of modern architecture and urbanism. In the nineties the urban environment spirit in Colombia got closer to philosophical debates and narratives through analysis categories not covered by modern urbanism.

A partir de la reedición del libro de Jane Jacobs, The Death and Life of Great American Cities en 2011, cincuenta años más tarde de su primera publicación surgen preguntas sobre las ciudades colombianas como: ¿qué pasó en esas ciudades, en el contexto colombiano y en los colombianos en esos cincuenta años? ¿Por qué los cuestionamientos de Jane Jacobs, aunque referidos al modelo de ciudad norteamericano de posguerra, siguen vigentes en nuestro contexto? Se plantea así un método para introducirse en el espíritu de cada época, trabajar con libros y textos referidos a la ciudad que permite descubrir en ellos el "espíritu del tiempo"; de allí surge la hipótesis marco de este trabajo: los momentos de articulación y cambio en la continuidad de la historia se pueden identificar a través de determinados textos que impactaron sobre el espíritu del tiempo, y esta se media con una segunda hipótesis que explica el sentido de la investigación y sus objetivos: la conclusión del proceso de investigación surge de la interpretación de los textos a la luz del espíritu del tiempo y las particularidades del lugar. Así se puede establecer que el espíritu del ambiente urbanístico colombiano vivió una fuerte influencia de los autores llamados posmodernos que cuestionaron la ruptura de las formas, los usos y las significaciones de la ciudad tradicional en los proyectos de la arquitectura y el urbanismo moderno. En la década de los noventa el espíritu del ambiente urbanístico en Colombia se acercó al debate filosófico y a la narrativa a través de categorías de análisis no contempladas en el urbanismo moderno.
