Images of St. Petersburg

The city of Petersburg is great and mysterious. This is an exceptional phenomenon in Russian history, and in the history of all of Europe. About the mysticism of St. Petersburg, about its metaphysics, they have been talking for not the first century. Petersburgers are even a little proud of the incomprehensibility of their city for a weak human mind. But the doctrine of locations has already been created by Petersburger Lev Gumilyov. Applied to St. Petersburg, it explains a lot. Location - a place where the development of culture is accelerated.
This is a unique book. To create something similar, you need to combine the theory of Lev Gumilyov with the semantics, create your own methodology for studying cities ... and present the city as a location, which says with a person with its squares and streets, houses and channels.
In the book Petersburg is shown as a geographical phenomenon. As a space in which people live. The city, like a living creature, takes people away, and raises and forms the selected ones. Do people organize space? Yes, but far from accidental. Their genius and their work, the location of St. Petersburg begins to “work” even more intensively.
The book is a unique study. Of course, she is not the last word and not the truth in the last instance. But at the moment - this is the most complete and most modern explanation of St. Petersburg.
In addition, the book is well published. On coated paper, in a beautiful cover is a wonderful gift and presentation publication. This is a book for family reading. And she is almost "eternal": like an incunabula. Over the centuries, the color of numerous photographs will not fade, the clarity of the font will not be lost.
Burovsky’s book is worthy of decorating the library of any Petersburger
