Beschreibung

A cultural study that seeks to preserve Jerusalems Arab traditions: festivals, folk medicine, cuisine, and even the everyday simple pleasures. Jerusalem is a city of unique grief, a city that has been the target of conquerors more than twenty times. Yet the city has managed to maintain its Arabic culture and traditionsIslamic, Christian, and Jewishand has emerged victorious time and time again. But beginning with its partial occupation in 1948, its full occupation in 1967, and continuing through today, the Israeli claim on Jerusalem and the governments efforts to change its identity, threatens, finally, to obliterate the traditional Arab culture of the city.
