Publisher Description: Historical writing in Europe chiefly takes place within a national context. So far attempts at writing "European" history have frequently concentrated on Western Europe. The authors of this volume, the result of a Symposion assembled by the Austrian Academy of Sciences in May, 2000, address a broader concept of Europe, where Northern Europe, Eastern Europe (including Russia) and South Eastern Europe are not regarded as separate fields of study, but rather as integral components of European history and hence of the writing of a European history which transcends national and regional boundaries. This volume, with contributions partly in German and partly in English, unites authors from the Netherlands, Finland, Poland, Russia, USA/Bulgaria, Germany, Israel/Germany, and Austria. |
