Focussing on the critical turn-of-the-century era, it offers new insights into alpine development, attitudes to danger, cultures of time, internationalism and domesticity in the outdoors. It charts an emerging group of mass tourist activities, and argues that these thousands of walkers and climbers can only be understood within the context of the urban cultures from which most of them came. In doing so, it offers a fresh perspective on the relationship of alpinists and countryside enthusiasts to the modern world. Instead of an escape from or rejection of modernity, it finds that upland trampers and climbers contested what it meant to be modern, used those modern identities to make political claims on rural space and rural people, and sought to define what a more modern future society should be like. 606 $aCivilization?History 606 $aGreat Britain?History 606 $aEurope, Central?History 606 $aCities and towns?History 606 $aCultural History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/723000 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717020 606 $aHistory of Germany and Central Europe$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717060 606 $aUrban History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/727000 607 $aGreat Britain$xCivilization 607 $aGermany$xCivilization 615 0$aCivilization?History. 615 0$aGreat Britain?History. 615 0$aEurope, Central?History. 615 0$aCities and towns?History. 615 14$aCultural History. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 615 24$aHistory of Germany and Central Europe. 615 24$aUrban History. 676 $a796.522 700 $aAnderson$b Ben$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0917600 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910372758703321 996 $aCities, Mountains and Being Modern in fin-de-siècle England and Germany$92057274 997 $aUNINA
