Dresden in the Augustan Age

TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Dresden in the Augustan Age

One of the reasons I came to Dresden was to see the reconstruction of the historical core of the city, which had been bombed and burned out on 13-14 February 1945. The reconstruction of Dresden didn’t begin in earnest until after German reunification, and now the city has faithfully reconstructed much of its premodern cityscape in its historical center. The effect is, I think, quite successful, and I was impressed by my time in Dresden.
