Download or read book The Pleasures of Franconia written by David B. Dickens and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2009 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Somewhat off the beaten track of the tourist who visits Germany, Franconia (German aFrankena) is a relatively small area of northern Bavaria. This book, combining travel with cultural history, explores major cities such as Bayreuth, NA1/4rnberg, Bamberg, and WA1/4rzburg, as well as tiny towns most visitors might never see. We follow the Main Riveras course; we climb up to impressive fortresses and descend into caverns. Side excursions explore regional history. We examine unforgettable works of art and architecture and note many famous people associated with Franconia, from the well known to Levi Strauss (he gave us our alevisa or jeans) or Johann Lahner, to whom we owe our wieners. And there is far more to German cuisine than sausages and beer! Travelers familiar with Franconia will enjoy reliving their experiences, while those who have never been are encouraged to discover this area for themselves. aAuf nach Franken!a
Download or read book Germany written by Olaf Kühne and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the highly differentiated spatial, social, cultural and demographic structure(s) of Germany, with a particular focus on the reciprocal relations between different levels of spatial development. The historical development of Germany serves as a background in order to provide context for the development of spatially relevant ideas and ideals (whether in relation to politics, landscape, or culture). In this regard, questions of divergence and convergence become highly salient. The book makes the complexity of spatial and social developments in Germany comprehensible. The neopragmatic approach adopted here allows bringing together different theoretical strands while providing a basis for independent regional geographic research at the same time. Beginning with an overview of the physical structures of Germany which provides the material point of departure for the societal development of Germany, key aspects of the German history are discussed. Particular attention is paid to the reciprocal influence between material substrate and notions of landscape. Here, specific ‘German’ trajectories of aesthetic and normative conceptions of landscape become clear. A common theme throughout the book are questions of divergence and of efforts towards convergence, which become evident when considering past and present economic, political, and demographic developments. Efforts to tackle current challenges, such as adapting to climate change and mitigating it, or securing raw materials, also become apparent. The complexity of spatial processes in Germany is illustrated in case study regions dealing with the challenges of structural change in traditional industrial regions (such as the Ruhr area), or e.g. efforts of Berlin to position and find itself as the capital of a unified Germany. Overall, the book shows how theory-driven regional geographic research can make spatiotemporal complexities tangible and comprehensible.

Readers will discover dark, sour classic Russian Borodinsky; orange and molasses-infused Swedish Gotländ Rye; nearly black Westphalian Pumpernickel, which gets its musky sweetness from a 24-hour bake; traditional Old Milwaukee Rye; and bright, caraway-infused Austrian Country Boule Rounding out this treasury are reader-friendly chapters on rye’s history, unique chemistry, and centuries-old baking methods. Advanced bakers will relish Stanley’s methods, ingredients, and carefully sourced recipes, while beginning bakers will delight in his clear descriptions of baking fundamentals.

Download or read book On Germany written by Giles MacDonogh and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the Second World War, Germany was an international pariah. Today, it has become a beacon of the Western world. But what makes this extraordinary nation tick? On Germany tells the story of a country reborn, from defeat in 1945 to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the painstaking reunification of "the two Germanies" and the Republic's return to the world stage as an economic colossus and European leader. Giles MacDonogh restores these momentous events of world history to their German context, from the food and drink that accompanied them to the deep-rooted provincialism behind the national story. Full of vivid and often whimsical vignettes of German life, this is a Germanophile's homage to the culture and people of a country he has known for decades.
