Heimatschutz
''Heimatschutz'' is a German word which literally translated means 'homeland protection'. The ''Heimatschutz'' movement arose in the late 19th century in the wake of the Industrial Revolution, with a focus on nature and landscape conservation as well as the care of historic townscapes, cultural heritage and traditions, folklore and regional identity. History The term was coined in 1897 by the conservationist Ernst Rudorff; referring to the German term '' Heimat'' which had become popular since the Napoleonic Wars of Liberation and gained increasing political meaning during the rise of Romantic nationalism. Numerous historical and folk art societies arose, such as the bourgeois '' Wandervogel'' youth movement in 1896. On 30 March 1904, Rudorff founded the ''Bund Heimatschutz'' association in Dresden; the architect Paul Schultze-Naumburg being its first head. In 1916, Austrian Max Dvořák's ''Katechismus der Denkmalpflege'' appeared. In this book Dvorak builds upon the ide ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
