Abstract

The article considers relations and mutual influence of a celebration as a ritual and a city as a space where a celebration develops and transforms throughout many centuries. The article analyses the features of pre-urban genesis of celebrations in the context of the city, a medieval model of the urban celebration and a semantic hollowing-out of the celebration in the modern and contemporary times.
