Zusammenfassung: | "Rivers figure prominently in a nation's historical memory, and the Volga and Mississippi have special importance in Russian and American cultures. Beginning in the pre-modern world, both rivers served as critical trade routes connecting cultures in an extensive exchange network, while also sustaining populations through their surrounding wetlands and bottomlands. In modern times, 'Mother Volga' and the 'Father of Waters' became integral parts of national identity, contributing to a sense of Russian and American exceptionalism. Furthermore, both rivers were drafted into service as the means to modernize the nation-state through hydropower and navigation. Despite being forced into submission for modern-day hydrological regimes, the Volga and Mississippi Rivers persist in the collective memory and continue to offer solace, recreation, and sustenance. Through their histories we derive a more nuanced view of human interaction with the environment, which adds another lens to our understanding of the past"- -Provided by publisher |

Ill., Kt. 24 cm txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The environment in history : international perspectives 5 Includes bibliographical references and index "Rivers figure prominently in a nation's historical memory, and the Volga and Mississippi have special importance in Russian and American cultures. Beginning in the pre-modern world, both rivers served as critical trade routes connecting cultures in an extensive exchange network, while also sustaining populations through their surrounding wetlands and bottomlands. In modern times, 'Mother Volga' and the 'Father of Waters' became integral parts of national identity, contributing to a sense of Russian and American exceptionalism. Furthermore, both rivers were drafted into service as the means to modernize the nation-state through hydropower and navigation. Despite being forced into submission for modern-day hydrological regimes, the Volga and Mississippi Rivers persist in the collective memory and continue to offer solace, recreation, and sustenance. Through their histories we derive a more nuanced view of human interaction with the environment, which adds another lens to our understanding of the past"- -Provided by publisher Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Gesellschaft Nationalismus Rivers Social aspects Russia Rivers Social aspects United States Collective memory Russia History Collective memory United States History Nationalism Russia History Nationalism United States History Human ecology Russia History Human ecology United States History Kollektives Gedächtnis (DE-588)4200793-8 gnd rswk-swf Humanökologie (DE-588)4026152-9 gnd rswk-swf Russland USA Volga River (Russia) History Mississippi River History Wolga (DE-588)4079375-8 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 gnd rswk-swf Mississippi Fluss (DE-588)4039589-3 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 g Wolga (DE-588)4079375-8 g Humanökologie (DE-588)4026152-9 s Kollektives Gedächtnis (DE-588)4200793-8 s Geschichte z DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Mississippi Fluss (DE-588)4039589-3 g Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe 978-1-78238-432-8 The environment in history international perspectives 5 (DE-604)BV040700951 5 LoC Fremddatenuebernahme application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=027567964&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
