Widely travelled in the Balkans, Butler wrote on a wide variety of subjects concerning his experience of the region, much of which remains deeply relevant to the recent history of Croatia, serbia and Bosnia. he lived in Yugoslavia between 1934 and 1937, and spoke Croatian fluently. Much of Balkan Essays deals with the genocidal Quisling regime of the independent state of Croatia (1941-45) and the collaborationist role played by the Catholic Church and, particularly, by archbishop stepinac a topic which embroiled him in a major controversy in 1950s ireland, and continues to polarize the political and cultural life of post-communist Croatia. Balkan Essays includes 39 essays, written between 1937 and 1989, amongst them some of Butler s greatest work. Just over three-quarters of the book has appeared in the five previous collections of Butler s essays, but the remainder has never previously been collected. For the first time, the extraordinary body of Butler s Balkan work written over a half century is brought together in a single volume.
