Jerusalem currently stands at the center of a violent controversy that threatens the stability of both the Middle East and the world. This volatility, observes Annabel Jane Wharton, is only the most recent manifestation of a centuriesold obsession with the control of the Holy Citymilitary occupation and pilgrimage being two familiar forms of ownership. Wharton makes the innovative argument here that the West has also sought to possess Jerusalem by acquiring its representations.From relics of the True Cross and Templar replicas of the Holy Sepulchre to Franciscan recreations of the Passion to nineteenthcentury massproduced prints and contemporary theme parks, Wharton describes the evolving forms by which the city has been possessed in the West. She also maps those changing embodiments of the Holy City against shifts in the western market. From the giftandbarter economy of the early Middle Ages to contemporary globalization, both money and the representations of Jerusalem have become progressively incorporeal, abstract, illusionistic, and virtual.Selling Jerusalem offers a penetrating introduction to the explosive combination of piety and capital at work in religious objects and global politics. It is sure to interest students and scholars of art history, economic history, popular culture, religion, and architecture, as well as those who want to better understand Jerusalems problematic place in history.

We got this Jerusalem relic replica for our theme park and it has been a hit with the visitors. The attention to detail is impressive, and it really grabs people's interest. I love seeing families stop to read about it!

Beautiful replicas, but careful with setup
These Jerusalem replicas look stunning, but they were tricky to set up properly in the park. It took us a bit of fussing around to get them right. Worth it for the look though!
