History 歷史

The founding of Barcelona is the subject of two different legends. The first attributes the founding of the city to the mythological Hercules 400 years before the building of Rome. The second legend attributes the foundation of the city directly to the historical Carthaginian Hamilcar Barca, father of Hannibal, who named the city Barcino after his family, in the 3rd century BC. About 15 BC, the Romans redrew the town as a castrum (Roman military camp) centred on the “Mons Taber”, a little hill near the contemporary city hall (Plaça de Sant Jaume). Under the Romans, it was a colony with the surname of Faventia, or, in full, Colonia Faventia Julia Augusta Pia Barcino or Colonia Julia Augusta Faventia Paterna Barcino. Mela mentions it among the small towns of the district, probably as it was eclipsed by its neighbour Tarraco (modern Tarragona); but it may be gathered from later writers that it gradually grew in wealth and consequence, favoured as it was with a beautiful situation and an excellent harbour.

Some important Roman ruins are exposed under the Plaça del Rei, entrance by the city museum (Museu d’Història de la Ciutat), and the typically Roman grid-planning is still visible today in the layout of the historical centre, the Barri Gòtic (“Gothic Quarter”). Some remaining fragments of the Roman walls have been incorporated into the cathedral. The cathedral, also known as basilica La Seu, is said to have been founded in 343. The city was conquered by the Visigoths in the early 5th century becoming for a few years the capital of the whole Hispania. Afterwards by the Arabs in the early 8th century, reconquered in 801 by Charlemagne’s son Louis who made Barcelona the seat of Carolingian “Spanish Marches” (Marca Hispanica), a buffer zone ruled by the Count of Barcelona.

Geography 地理

Tibidabo巴塞羅那位於伊比利亞半島東北部沿海,面臨地中海Barcelona is located on the northeast coast of the Iberian Peninsula, facing the Mediterranean Sea, on a plateau approximately 5 km (3 mi) wide limited by the mountain range of Collserola, the Llobregat river to the southwest and the Besòs river to the north. This plateau has 170 km2 (66 sq mi), of which 101 km² (38.9 sq mi) are occupied by the city itself. It is 160 km (100 mi) south of the Pyrenees and the Catalonian border with France. The city borders are the municipalities of Santa Coloma de Gramenet and Sant Adrià de Besòs to the north; the Mediterranean Sea to the east; El Prat de Llobregat and L’Hospitalet de Llobregat to the south; and Sant Feliu de Llobreg at, Sant Just Desvern, Esplugues de Llobregat, Sant Cugat del Vallès, and Montcada i Reixac to the west.

Tibidabo, 512 m (1,680 ft) high, offers striking views over the city and is topped by the 288.4 m (946.2 ft) Torre de Collserola, a telecommunications tower that is visible from most of the city. Barcelona is peppered with small hills, most of them urbanized and that gave their name to the neighbourhoods built upon them, such as Carmel (267 m), Putxet (181 m) and Rovira (261 m). The escarpment of Montjuïc (173 m), situated to the southeast, overlooks the harbour and is topped by Montjuïc castle, a fortress built in the 17–18th centuries to control the city as a replacement for the Ciutadella. Today, the fortress is a museum and Montjuïc is home to several sporting and cultural venues, as well as Barcelona’s biggest park and gardens.

The Gothic Quarter 哥特區

Main Sights 主要景點

The Barri Gòtic (“Gothic Quarter” in Catalan) is the centre of the old city of Barcelona. It stretchs from the Mediterranean seafront to Ronda de Sant Pere. Despite several changes undergone in the 19th and early 20th century, many of the buildings date from Medieval times, some from as far back as the Roman settlement of Barcelona. Remains of the squared Roman Wall can be seen around Tapineria and Sots-Tinent Navarro to the north, Avinguda de la Catedral and Plaça Nova to the west and Carrer de la Palla to the south. El Call, the medieval Jewish quarter, is located within this area too. The Barri Gòtic retains a labyrinthine street plan, with many small streets opening out into squares. Most of the quarter is closed to regular traffic although open to service vehicles and taxis. Many of the buildings date from medieval times, some from as far back as the Roman settlement of Barcelona. Catalan modernisme architecture (often known as Art Nouveau in the rest of Europe), developed between 1885 and 1950 and left an important legacy in Barcelona. A great number of these buildings are World Heritage Sites. Especially remarkable is the work of architect Antoni Gaudí, which can be seen throughout the city.

Barcelona was also home to Mies van der Rohe’s Barcelona Pavilion. Designed in 1929 for the International Exposition for Germany, it is an iconic building that came to symbolize modern architecture as the embodiment of van der Rohe’s aphorisms “less is more” and “God is in the details.” The Barcelona pavilion was intended as a temporary structure, and was torn down in 1930 less than a year after it was constructed. A modern re-creation by Spanish architects now stands in Barcelona, however, constructed in 1986. Barcelona won the 1999 RIBA Royal Gold Medal for its architecture, the first (and as of 2009, only) time that the winner has been a city.

Concept 概念

Mies was offered the commission of this building in 1928 after his successful administration of the 1927 Werkbund exhibition in Stuttgart. The German Republic entrusted Mies with the artistic management and erection of not only the Barcelona Pavilion, but for the buildings for all the German sections at the 1929 Universal Exhibition. However, Mies had severe time constraints—he had to design the Barcelona Pavilion in less than a year—and was also dealing with uncertain economic conditions. In the years following World War I, Germany started to turn around. The economy started to recover after the 1924 Dawes Plan. The pavilion for the Universal Exhibition was supposed to represent the new Weimar Germany: democratic, culturally progressive, prospering, and thoroughly pacifist; a self-portrait through architecture. The Commissioner, Georg von Schnitzler said it should give “voice to the spirit of a new era”. This concept was carried out with the realization of the “free plan” and the “floating room”.

Building 大廈

Mies’s response to the proposal by von Schnitzler was radical. After rejecting the original site because of aesthetic reasons, Mies agreed to a quiet site at the narrow side of a wide, diagonal axis, where the pavilion would still offer viewpoints and a route leading to one of the exhibition’s main attractions, the “Spanish Village”. The pavilion was going to be bare, no trade exhibits, just the structure accompanying a single sculpture and purpose-designed furniture (the Barcelona Chair). This lack of accommodation enabled Mies to treat the Pavilion as a continuous space; blurring inside and outside. “The design was predicated on an absolute distinction between structure and enclosure—a regular grid of cruciform steel columns interspersed by freely spaced planes”. However, the structure was more of a hybrid style, some of these planes also acted as supports. The floor plan is very simple. The entire building rests on a plinth of travertine. A southern U-shaped enclosure, also of travertine, helps form a service annex and a large water basin.

Barcelona

Antoni GaudíAntoni Gaudí i Cornet (Riudoms or Reus, 25 June 1852 – Barcelona, 10 June 1926) was a Spanish Catalan architect and the best-known representative of Catalan Modernism. Gaudí’s works are marked by a highly individual style and the vast majority of them are situated in the Catalan capital of Barcelona, including his magnum opus, the Sagrada Família.

Much of Gaudí’s work was marked by the four passions of his life: architecture, nature, religion and his love for Catalonia. Gaudí meticulously studied every detail of his creations, integrating into his architecture a series of crafts, in which he himself was skilled, such as ceramics, stained glass, wrought ironwork forging and carpentry. He also introduced new techniques in the treatment of the materials, such as his famous trencadís, made of waste ceramic pieces. After a few years under the influence of neo-Gothic art, and certain oriental tendencies, Gaudí became part of the Catalan Modernista movement which was then at its peak, towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. Gaudí’s work, however, transcended mainstream Modernisme, culminating in an organic style that was inspired by nature without losing the influence of the experiences gained earlier in his career. Rarely did Gaudí draw detailed plans of his works and instead preferred to create them as three-dimensional scale models, moulding all details as he was conceiving them in his mind.

Today he is admired by both professionals and the general public: his masterpiece, the Sagrada Família, is one of the most visited monuments in Spain.

Locals are known for there Schnauze, the Berlin version of attitude. Yes, berliners can have a curt and grouchy side, pretty much like any big-city follk. They also have a limitless sene of humour and self-depre-cation. Berliners will be the first to smile and admit that they forever meckern (grumble) about almost everything (another big-city malady).

One thing that attracts so many ohter Germans to Berlin is that the city is, well, so un-German. To many, it is a mysterious East European city, far removed from the center of things and having more in common with Warsaw or Moscow than with the former capital, Bonn, or the banking city of Frankfurt.

Geography 地理

Berlin is located in eastern Germany, about 70 kilom-eters (43 mi) west of the border with Poland in an area with marshy terrain, and is surrounded by the federal state of Brandenburg. The Berlin–Warsaw Urstromtal (ice age melt water flow), between the low Barnim plateau to the north and the Teltow plateau to the south, was formed by water flowing from melting ice sheets at the end of the last ice age. The Spree follows this valley now. In Spandau, Berlin’s westernmost borough, the Spree meets the river Havel, which flows from north to south through western Berlin. The course of the Havel is more like a chain of lakes, the largest being the Tegeler See and Großer Wannsee. A series of lakes also feeds into the upper Spree, which flows through the Großer Müggelsee in eastern Berlin.

Substantial parts of present-day Berlin extend onto the low plateaus on both sides of the Spree Valley. Large parts of the boroughs Reinickendorf and Pankow lie on the Barnim plateau, while most of the boroughs Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Steglitz-Zehlendorf, Tempelhof-Schöneberg, and Neukölln lie on the Teltow plateau.

The borough of Spandau lies partly within the Berlin Urstromtal and partly on the Nauen Plain, which stretches to the west of Berlin. The highest elevations in Berlin are the Teufelsberg and the Müggelberge. Both hills have an elevation of about 115 metres (377 ft). The Teufelsberg is in fact an artificial pile of rubble from the ruins of World War II.

History of Berlin

Earliest Evi-

柏林的歷史

The origin of the name Berlin is unknown, but it may have its roots in the language of West Slavic inhabitants of the area of today’s Berlin, and be related to the Old Polabian stem berl-/birl- “swamp”.

The earliest evidence of settlements in the area of today’s Berlin is a wooden beam dated from approximately 1192. The first written records of towns in the area of present-day Berlin date from the late 12th century. Span-dau is first mentioned in 1197 and Köpenick in 1209, although these areas did not join Berlin until 1920. The central part of Berlin can be traced back to two towns. Cölln on the Fischerinsel is first mentioned in a 1237 document, and Berlin, across the Spree in what is now called the Nikolaiviertel, is referenced in a document from 1244. The former is considered to be the founding date of the city. The two towns over time formed close economic and social ties and eventually merged in 1307 and came to be known as Berlin.

在今天的柏林地區的定居點的最早證據是從大約1192年的木樑。首份書面記錄的城鎮面積從12世紀後期在現今柏林日期。 Spandau酒店是第一次提到在1197和Kípenick在1209,雖然這些地區沒有加入,直到1920年柏林。柏林的中央部分可以追溯到兩鎮。 Cílln的Fischerinsel是第一次提到在1237筆,和柏林,橫跨在什麼是現在所謂的的Nikolaiviertel的狂歡,是在一個文件中引用從1244。前者被認為是城市成立之日起。隨著時間的推移兩鎮形成了密切的經濟和社會的關係,並最終在1307年合併和後來被稱為柏林。

Fact 事實上

In 1435, Frederick I became the elector of the Margra-viate of Brandenburg, which he ruled until 1440. His successor, Frederick II Irontooth, established Berlin as capital of the margraviate, and subsequent members of the Hohenzollern family ruled until 1918 in Berlin, first as electors of Brandenburg, then as kings of Prussia, and eventually as German emperors. In 1448, citizens rebelled in the “Berlin Indignation” against the construc-tion of a new royal palace by Frederick II Irontooth. This protest was not successful, however, and the citizenry lost many of its political and economic privileges. In 1451 Berlin became the royal residence of the Branden-burg electors, and Berlin had to give up its status as a free Hanseatic city. In 1539, the electors and the city officially became Lutheran.

1435,腓特烈一世成為選民的勃蘭登堡 Margravi-ate,這是他統治,直到1440。他的繼任者,腓特烈二世Irontooth margraviate資本,建立柏林,隨後霍亨索倫家族成員統治,直到1918年在柏林,首先為選民的勃蘭登堡,當時的普魯士國王,並最終為德國皇帝。在1448,公民背叛對腓特烈二世Irontooth的建設的一個新的王宮中的“柏林憤慨”。然而,這次抗議活動是成功的,和公民失去了許多的政治和經濟特權。柏林在1451年成為皇室居住的勃蘭登堡州的選民,柏林不得不放棄其作為一個自由漢薩城市的地位。 1539年,正式成為選民和城市路德。

The Berlin Wall

柏林牆

The Berlin Wall (German: Berliner Mauer) was a barrier constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) starting on 13 Au-gust 1961, that completely cut off West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin. The barrier included guard towers placed along large concrete walls, which circumscribed a wide area (later known as the “death strip”) that contained anti-vehicle trenches, “fakir beds” and other defenses. The Eastern Bloc claimed that the wall was erected to protect its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the “will of the people” in building a socialist state in East Germany. In practice, the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that marked Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period.

柏林牆(德國:柏林莫爾)是1961年8月13日開始,德意志民主共和國(東德,東德),完全切斷周圍東德和東柏林,西柏林建造的一個障礙。障礙包括崗樓沿大型混凝土牆,這規限廣域(後來被稱為“死亡地帶”),載有反車輛壕溝,“騙子床”和其他抗辯。東方集團聲稱牆豎起來保護其人口的陰謀,以防止在建設社會主義國家東德的“人民的意志”的法西斯分子。在實踐中,長城服務,以防止大規模的移民和倒戈,標誌著在後二戰時期德國和共產主義的東歐。

Summary 摘要

The Third Reich & World War 11第三帝國和二戰11

The fragile social peace came unstruck on October 25, 1929, the day of the Wall Street crash. The effects were felt in Germany almost immediatly. By 1930, the unemployed totaled a record half million in Berlin. Protests were again the norm.

Until 1943, Berlin remained largely unscathed by the war. From that point on, however, allied bomb-ing raids increased in intensity. By the end of the war, some 50,000 civilians had died in more than 360 air raids. Starting in Novemeber 1943, the gowwvernment evacuated up to one million civilians to “safe areas”, some located in occupied Poland and Czechoslovakia.

脆弱的社會和平來到 unstruck1929年10月25日,華爾街崩潰的一天。在德國,幾乎都感受到im-mediatly的影響。到1930年,失業達創紀錄的一百五十萬在柏林。抗議活動再次規範。

直到1943年,柏林戰爭仍然在很大程度上毫髮無損。然而,從這一點上,專職轟炸的強度增加。戰爭結束後,大約有50,000名平民死亡超過 360空襲。在Novemeber1943年開始,政府疏散了100萬平民“安全區”,有的設在被佔領的波蘭和捷克斯洛伐克。

The City Divided

市劃分

As a result of the political and economical tensions brought on by the Cold War, on 13 August 1961, East Germany began building of the Berlin Wall between East and West Berlin and similar barriers around West Berlin, and events escalated to a tank standoff at Checkpoint Charlie on 27 October 1961. West Berlin was now de facto a part of West Germany with a unique legal status, while East Berlin was de facto a part of East Germany.

Berlin was completely divided. Although it was pos-sible for Westerners to pass from one to the other only through strictly controlled checkpoints, for most Easterners, travel to West Berlin or West Germany was no longer possible. In 1971, a Four-Power agreement guaranteed access to and from West Berlin by car or train through East Germany and ended the potential for harassment or closure of the routes.

In 1989, with the end of the Cold War and pressure from the East German population the Berlin Wall fell on 9 November 1989, and was subsequently mostly demolished, with little of its physical structure remain-ing today; the East Side Gallery in Friedrichshain near the Oberbaumbrucke over the Spree preserves a portion of the Wall.

On 3 October 1990, the two parts of Germany were reunified as the Federal Republic of Germany, and Berlin again became the official German capital. In June 1991, the German Parliament, the Bundestag, voted to move the seat of the (West) German capital back from Bonn to Berlin, which was completed in 1999.

東德於1961年8月13日,由冷戰帶來的政治和經濟緊張局勢,開始建設的東西柏林和西柏林周圍類似的障礙之間的柏林牆,並在檢查點的坦克對峙事件升級1961年10月27日查理。西柏林現在事實上西德的一部分,具有獨特的法律地位,而東柏林事實上東德的一部分。

柏林是完全分歧。雖然它是可能西方人傳遞,只有通過嚴格控制的檢查站,從一個其他,對於大多數東方人,前往西柏林的西德已不再可能。在1971年,一個四國的協議保證的訪問乘汽車或火車通過東德和西柏林和結束騷擾或關閉的路線的潛力。

在1989年,隨著冷戰的結束和從東德人口的壓力的柏林牆倒塌1989年11月9日,後來大多拆毀,其物理結構,其餘的今天少;在弗里德里希附近Oberbaumbrucke東邊畫廊在狂歡中保留了部分長城。

1990年10月3日,德國兩個部分為德意志聯邦共和國統一,柏林再次成為德國的官方資本。 1991年6月,德國議會,德國聯邦議院投票移動座椅靠背(西)德國首都從波恩到柏林,這是在1999年完成。

Culture 文化

Berlin is noted for its numerous cultural institutions, many of which enjoy international reputation. The diversity and vivacity of the Zeitgeist Metropolis led to a trend setting image among major cities. The city has a very diverse art scene and is home to around 420 art galleries. Many young people and international artists continue to settle in the city, and Berlin has estab-lished itself as a center of youth and popular culture in Europe. wwThe expanding cultural role of Berlin is underscored by the 2003 announcement that the Popkomm, Europe’s largest annual music industry convention—previously hosted for 15 years by Cologne—would move to Ber-lin. Shortly thereafter, the Universal Music Group and MTV also decided to move their European headquar-ters and main studios to the banks of the River Spree in Friedrichshain. In 2005, Berlin was awarded the title of “City of Design” by UNESCO.

柏林指出其眾多的文化機構,其中許多享有國際聲譽。全國各大中城市的多樣性和活潑的時代精神大都市導致了一個引領潮流的形象。城市有一個非常多樣化的藝術舞台,是約420藝術畫廊。許多年輕人和國際藝術家繼續在該城市落戶,柏林已成為在歐洲的青年和流行文化的中心。

柏林文化不斷擴大的作用是強調由2003年宣布Popkomm展會,歐洲最大的年度音樂行業慣例,15年以前由科隆主辦會搬到柏林。此後不久,環球音樂集團和MTV還決定將其歐洲總部和主要工作室在弗里德里希施普雷河的銀行。在2005年,柏林被授予由教科文組織“城市設計”的標題。

The Arts 藝術

Today Berlin seeths with activity. Most dramatic in the city’s thea-tres, literary circles, and art gal-leries.

The numbers alone speak volumes: In Berlin there are 3 opera houses, about 150 theatres, 175 museums, and 300 art galleries. The city is reinventing itself in a fashion barely even imaginable in any other Western capital, and in the process fostering an electrifying creative dynamism.單獨的數字說話卷:在柏林有3歌劇院,約 150個劇院,175個博物館和300藝術畫廊。城市是重塑自己在勉強甚至可以想像,在任何其他的西方資本,並在這個過程中培養一個激動人心的創意活力的時尚。

Graffiti 塗鴉

By the end of the ’70s, a new wave of graffiti artists, arriving with innovations such as stencils and spray cans, were contributing genuine works of art. Our East German friends would have been staring not just at the defacement of Communist property, but at what graf-fiti artists had by then claimed as their Mecca.

After The Wall 牆後

After the collapse of the Berlin Wall, the graffiti artists marched straight into East Germany. Mitte, Frie-drichshain, Prenzlauer Berg — all of the areas that the military had occupied became a new playground for the Western artists and became a new world for the Eastern artists who joined them. Few doubted that the East Germans’ work was weightier. It wasn’t that they were better artists, but that they could express — with authority — the one concept close to the hearts of all people now living in the city: what it meant to be free.

柏林牆倒塌後,塗鴉藝術家直入東德遊行。 Mitte區,弗里德里希,普倫茨勞貝格 - 所有的軍事佔領的地區成為一個新的操場,為西方藝術家,並成為一個新的世界的東方藝術家們加入他們。很少有懷疑,東德人的工作是重。這不是他們更好的藝術家,但他們可以表達 - 與權威 - 一個概念接近全體人民的心中,現在居住在城市是什麼意思是免費的。

到70年代末,一個新的塗鴉藝術家波到達,如模具和噴霧罐創新,提供了真正的藝術作品。會盯著我們的德國朋友東已經不只是在共產黨的財產毀損,但在什麼塗鴉藝術家然後聲稱他們的麥加。
