Over time the city has transformed into a lively metropolis, renowned for its architecture and culture, openness and vitality. A young city, Tel Aviv continues to represent a fundamental idea that transcends the physical texture of the city and the everyday experiences of its residents. Combining historical research and cultural analysis, Maoz Azaryahu explores the different myths that have been part of the vernacular and perception of the city. He relates Tel Aviv's mythology to its physicality through buildings, streets, personal experiences, and municipal policies. With critical insight, he evaluates specific myths and their propagation in the spheres of both official and popular culture. Azaryahu explores three distinct stages in the history of the mythic Tel Aviv: "The First Hebrew City" assesses Tel Aviv as Zionist vision and seed of the actual city; "Non-Stop City" depicts trendy, global post-Zionist Tel Aviv; and "The White City" describes Tel Aviv's architectural landscape, created in the 1930s and imbued with nostalgia and local prestige. Tel Aviv: Mythography of a City will appeal to urban geographers, cultural historians, scholars of myth, and students of Israeli society and culture. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Travel.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1155558 651 0 Tel Aviv (Israel)|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh95002507 651 0 Tel Aviv (Israel)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79066414|xDescription and travel.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001278 651 0 Middle East|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85090506 651 7 Middle East.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1241586 651 7 Israel|zTel Aviv.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1205532 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aAzaryahu, Maoz|tTel Aviv : Mythography of a City|dSyracuse : Syracuse University Press,c2020 830 0 Space, Place and Society Ser. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2547760|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
