Since the extensive floods of 1966, inhabitants of Venice's lagoon areas have come to share in, and reflect upon, concerns over pressing environmental problems. Based on ethnographic and archival data, this book offers a study of the Venetian island of Burano that shows how its inhabitants develop their sense of a distinct identity.
