Monumental Challenge of Preservation - The Past in a Volatile WorldPevná vazba
The enormous task of preserving the world's heritage in the face of war, natural disaster, vandalism, neglect, and technical obsolescence.The monuments--movable, immovable, tangible, and intangible--of the world's shared cultural heritage are at risk. In The Monumental Challenge of Preservation Mich le Cloonan makes the case that, at this critical juncture, we must consider preservation in the broadest possible contexts. War, terrorism, natural disaster, vandalism, and neglect make the work of preservation a greater challenge than it has been since World War II.
The massive Bamiyan Buddhas, blown up by the Preservation requires the efforts of an increasing number of stakeholders.In order to explore the cultural, political, technological, economic, and ethical dimensions of preservation, Cloonan examines particular monuments and their preservation dilemmas.
