Résumé (en anglais)
The Spirit of the Place is the emotional response to the Place; it’s an abstract, wordless form of understanding; this is why it is unattainable, and yet it can be destroyed. Technology provides increasingly precise data, but its interpretation depends on how we perceive the Place and what we want to perceive in the Place. Nationalism and Cultural pride strongly influence what we want to perceive in the Place. Transmission of World Heritage to future generations relies heavily on “telling the Story;” to reveal not only historic data, but also the greatness of the human spirit in its struggle for perfection and in all its weakness. We may conclude that, trying to homogenize an idea in order to keep it politically correct leads to ambiguity and relativity, and might dangerously dilute the message.
