Das letzte Jahrhundert der Pferde
Das letzte Jahrhundert der Pferde: Geschichte einer Trennung | Ulrich Raulff
5 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 2 to read
Seit Urzeiten war das Pferd der engste Partner des Menschen. Es war unverzichtbar in der Landwirtschaft, verband Stdte und Lnder, entschied die Kriege. Doch dann zerbrach der kentaurische Pakt, und in nur einem Jahrhundert fiel das Pferd aus der Geschichte heraus, aus der es jahrtausendelang nicht wegzudenken war. Furios erzhlt Ulrich Raulff die Geschichte eines Abschieds die Trennung von Mensch und Pferd. Der Exodus des Pferdes aus der Menschengeschichte ist ein erstaunlich unbeachteter Vorgang. Ganze Bibliotheken zur Geschichte des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts schweigen sich aus ber das Pferd, das gleichwohl in Europa und Amerika allgegenwrtig war bis das letzte Jahrhundert der Pferde in der Zeit Napoleons anbricht und mit dem Ersten Weltkrieg ausklingt. Ulrich Raulff zieht in seinem neuen Buch alle Register der Kultur- und Literaturgeschichte und beschreibt mit beeindruckender Erzhlkunst eine untergehende Welt ein Kapitel vom Auszug des Menschen aus der analogen Welt.

Today is the National Day of the Horse in the United States. Remembering the economic, historic and cultural contributions of horses to our society. I still haven't read this book but I love the cover.

This cover was amazing, but the writing was not. It‘s full of pompous whining for the good old days and presents a history that is of the worst kind-self important to the author with little focus on the subject. It is less a celebration of the 🐴, an amazing creature, and more slanted history that epitomizes what‘s wrong with ivory tower academics. I wanted to read this, I wanted to like it, but it was just awful. 0/5 stars.

bookishbitch Good to know. I have this in my tbr pile. I won't rush to get to it now. It has a beautiful cover at least. 6y
