Contents

The past thus conjured up is, to be sure, largely an artifact of the present. However faithfully we preserve, however authentically we restore, however deeply we immerse ourselves in bygone times, life back then was based on ways of being and believing incommensurable with our own. we cannot help but view and celebrate it through present-day lenses.

David Lowenthal, The Past is a Foreign Country, 1985

Like the villages pictured in every fairy tale youve ever read, this [Rothenburg] is a thoroughly enchanting, utterly authentic, and totally unaltered town of the Middle Ages, with fairy-tale-like castle, cobblestoned streets, and massive city walls. For reasons unknown, it has escaped the ravages and damages of war (sieges and invasions, bombardments and pillage) since the year 1274 one of the few European villages to do so and has thus come down through the ages entirely intact and unchanged.

Arthur Frommers Budget Travel, 1999
