520    Founded in 1909 as a "garden suburb" of the Mediterranean 
       port of Jaffa, Tel Aviv soon became a model of Jewish self
       -rule and was celebrated as a jewel in the crown of Hebrew
       revival. 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.
