Architectural Heritage Conservation in Taiwan and Germany

More about the book

Focusing on the historical, environmental, and technical factors, this research explores the stark contrasts in heritage conservation traditions between Taiwan and Germany. It highlights how elements from ancient Chinese literature, culture, and religion influence conservation practices. The study suggests that bridging cultural and language gaps could allow the Chinese-speaking world to adopt Germany's established conservation methods, while simultaneously offering Germany innovative, nature-friendly approaches rooted in Chinese heritage.
