Keywords: anthropology; city; Jerusalem
Summary/Abstract: The presented text is a subjective and by no means analytical portrait of a city. In several scenes from the life of Jerusalem, the author stresses the tension between the cultural compulsion of “sacred behaviour” in the city and her own incapability to perform such exalted gestures. She also emphasizes the tension between Jerusalem (with its pressure of Holy History) and Tel Aviv (with its youth and unhampered freedom).
