Der Wiener Prater. Labor Der Moderne by Werner Michael Schwarz (Hardback)
Der Wiener Prater - ein Stück Stadtgeschichte im Spiegel der Zeit
Wie kein anderer Ort repräsentiert der Prater die Geschichte Wiens und den Weg zur modernen Großstadt. Die Öffnung 1766 unter Kaiser Joseph II. markierte den Beginn einer neuen Zeit: Von nun an stand das kaiserliche Jagdgebiet allen Wiener:innen zur Erholung und zum Vergnügen offen, für Spaziergänge, Musikdarbietungen sowie Essen, Trinken und Tanz.
Von optischen Apparaturen über Fußball, Ballonflug und Mondrakete bis zu Maiaufmarsch und Blumenkorso wurden hier alle Novitäten erstmals einem großen Publikum vorgestellt; im Wurstelprater, in Theatern, Kinos, Varietés, Zoos, Zirkussen, auf der Weltausstellung 1873, im Vivarium, im Planetarium oder im Stadion. Im Prater verdichten sich die großen Themen des modernen Lebens - das Verhältnis von Natur und Stadt, Mensch und Tier, moderner Technik und menschlichem Körper.
Fundierte Beiträge zu mehr als 250 Jahren Stadtgeschichte: „Der Prater und die Stadt", „Natur und Technik", „Körper und Lust", „Großes Theater" Mit Beiträgen von mehr als 40 namhaften Autor:innen Mit zahlreichen Abbildungen und BildstreckenMit Beiträgen von:

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total
Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.
Overseas Delivery

A really, really important Brexit bit: From 1st January 2021 shipments to EU addresses may incur additional costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery. If in any doubt, please check with your local Fed Ex office what, if any, additional costs will be applicable to your order - https://www.fedex.com

All overseas orders are shipped using a 'signed for' courier service - please provide an address at which your parcel can be signed for on receipt. We use the same packaging materials for our overseas deliveries as we do those in the UK. In some cases, particularly large and heavy books, or books being shipped to remote areas, may incur an additional shipping charge - if this is the case with your order, we'll notify you as quickly as possible of these charges and to arrange the additional payment. You can of course cancel your order with an immediate refund should you not wish to accept these additional costs. Shipments to overseas territories may incur additional Duty & Tax costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery.
