Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. The biblical metaphor of a "Land of Milk and Honey" has denoted for millennia a prophecy and promise for plenitude. This book, published in conjunction with the Israeli Pavilion at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, examines the reciprocal relations between humans, animals, and the environment within the context of modern Palestine-Israel, and demonstrates how this promise has become an action-plan over the course of the twentieth century.Through this lens, Land. Milk. Honey investigates how colonialism, settlement, urbanisation, infrastructure, and mechanised agriculture radically reshaped the environment of the contested territory of Palestine-Israel, and altered human-animal relationships. It shows how the celebrated metamorphosis of the region into a prosperous agricultural landscape was entangled with irreparable damage to the local fauna and flora, as well as the disruption of human communities and ways of living. And it highlights the predicaments that both the environment and its inhabitants are facing after the territory has over a century been the test bed of modernist aspirations for plenitude.The fundamental changes the region has gone through are portrayed through the stories of five local animals: cow, goat, honey-bee, water-buffalo, and bat. These case-studies and a zoo-centric analysis construct a spatial history of a place in five acts: Mechanization Territory, Cohabitation, Extinction and the Post-Human. A rich collection of literary excerpts, historical documents, archival photos, as well as short original vignettes brings about the story of this remarkable transfiguration and redesign.

Aggiungi al carrelloTaschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Die Bibel verspricht mit der Metapher des «Landes, wo Milch und Honig fliessen,» unerschöpfliche Fülle. Das Buch zum israelischen Pavillon auf der 17. Architekturbiennale in Venedig erkundet die wechselseitigen Beziehungen von Mensch, Tier und Umwelt auf dem Gebiet des heutigen Palästina und Israels und zeigt auf, wie aus biblischer Verheissung ein Aktionsplan für das 20. Jahrhundert wurde. Kolonisierung, Urbanisierung und mechanisierte Landwirtschaft haben die Landschaft und die Beziehung zwischen Mensch und Tier radikal umgestaltet. Die legendäre Fruchtbarmachung der Wüste geschah um den Preis irreparabler ökologischer Schäden und der Disruption jahrhundertealter menschlicher Gemeinschaften. Menschen und Umwelt in der Region sind in eine Zwickmühle geraten, aus der kaum ein Entkommen absehbar ist. Land. Milk. Honey. zeichnet diese Entwicklung in Fallstudien und Analysen an den Beispielen von fünf Tieren nach: Kuh, Ziege, Honigbiene, Wasserbüffel und Fledermaus. Essays und literarische Textauszüge, Archivfotos und Dokumente beleuchten die höchst bemerkenswerte Transfiguration dieser historisch so ausserordentlich bedeutsamen Region. Gewinner des DAM Architectural Book Award 2021.
