Produktbeschreibung

"Warsaw Rebirth" examines the extraordinary post-World War II reconstruction of Warsaw, exploring how the city rose from near-total destruction to become a modern European capital while preserving its Polish heritage.
The book delves into the conscious effort to rebuild not just buildings, but also national identity in the face of Soviet influence.
Intriguingly, the rebuilding of Warsaw's Old Town, now a UNESCO World Heritage site, served as a symbol of national pride and resilience.
The book highlights the deliberate choices made by Polish architects and planners to reimagine the city's past and shape its future.

The book unfolds by first introducing pre-war Warsaw and then detailing the city's destruction and immediate post-war conditions.
Subsequent chapters explore the phases of reconstruction, including the Royal Castle and historic churches, examining architectural styles like socialist realism and the political context.
The book uniquely emphasizes the cultural and political motivations behind the reconstruction, moving beyond a purely architectural analysis to explore the human stories that shaped the city's rebirth.

Finally, the book analyzes Warsaw's contemporary identity as a modern European capital, balancing its heritage with modernity.
