But, above all, it is about how we can incorporate an...

Violent acts over the past fifteen years have profoundly altered civil rituals, cultural identity, and the meaning of place in Tel Aviv.

Tali Hatuka uses an interdisciplinary framework of urban theory and sociopolitical theory to shed light on...

ISBN: 9781933146546 / Angielski / Twarda / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

While these texts have been cited and referred to in diverse previous studies on Ottoman architecture, they have not been the topic of a major interpretative approach before. "A Study of Ottoman Narratives on Architecture: Text, Context and Hermeneutics" is the first interpretive and comparative research monograph...
