| Zusammenfassung: | Fez's medina, a cultural heritage site since the Protectorate past and included on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1981, manages to support numerous readings. It is capable of sustaining various interpretations (historical wonderland, city of a peculiar type of Islam, zenith of Moroccan urban sophistication). The author examines the processes which have enabled the medina to maintain this tripartite image for the Moroccan and non-Moroccan tourists who visit it. (DÜI-Cls) |
