New Directions in Urban History: Aspects of European Art, Health, Tourism and Leisure Since the EnlightenmentGunther Hirschfelder, Peter Borsay, Ruth-Elisabeth Mohrmann Waxmann, 2000 - 217 strani This volume introduces, through a series of freshly researched studies, new perspectives on the history of European urban culture from the eighteenth to the twentieth century. The approach is an international one, with essays on Austria-Hungary, France, Germany, Great Britain and Italy, and the authors drawn not only from Europe, but also the USA and Japan. The essays examine a range of specialist aspects of culture, such as gardening, spa towns, painting, and music. At the same time the contributors also explore jointly several broader interconnected themes - health, nature, the arts and cultural institutions, leisure, and tourism - of central importance to the cultural identity and development of the modern European town. |
