Περιγραφή για Berlin: Imagine a City Rory MacLean Weidenfeld & Nicolson 0201

The first single-volume biography of Berlin, one of the world\'s great cities - told via twenty-one portraits, from medieval times to the twenty-first century.A city devastated by Allied bombs, divided by a Wall, then reunited and reborn, Berlin today resonates with the echo of lives lived, dreams realised and evils executed. No other city has repeatedly been so powerful and fallen so low. And few other cities have been so shaped and defined by individual imaginations.Through vivid portraits spanning five centuries, Rory MacLean reveals the varied and rich history of Berlin, from its brightest to its darkest moments. We encounter an ambitious prostitute refashioning herself as a princess, a Scottish mercenary fighting for the Prussian Army, Marlene Dietrich flaunting her sexuality and Hitler fantasising about the mega-city Germania. The result is a uniquely imaginative biography of one of the world\'s most volatile yet creative cities. Σελίδες: 432, Έτος Έκδοσης: 0201, Διαστάσεις: 12.8x12.8cm
