"A Place in History" is a cultural study of Tel Aviv, Israel's population center and one of the original settlements, established in 1909. It examines the city by exploring places which have been central to its history. Each chapter is devoted to a particular place in the city, and includes literary, artistic, journalistic, and photographic material relating to that site. The book describes how a largely European Jewish immigrant society attempted to forge a home in the Mediterranean and explores the difficulties and challenges of this endeavor. This is the first book-length study of Tel Aviv in English. It will appeal to readers interested in urban cultures, the contemporary Middle East, modern Jewish history, and Israeli literature. It also contributes to the ongoing public debate regarding the role of memory and memorials in urban identity.
