Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Starting from the history of concepts, Victor Neumann shows how the variety of connotations associated with the ideas of 'nation' and 'people' have been circumscribed in south-eastern Europe, holding back the region over many decades. More important, with erudition and seriousness of purpose, he mounts a defence of a notion of identity that is neither fixed nor monocultural, and proposes a legal definition of 'nation' that can resist exclusivist or racist versions. In an age when counter-rational fantasies about identity seem to be prevailing, when many seem unaware of or have forgotten where such thinking leads, Neumann's is a much-needed voice of reason." Dan Stone, Professor of Modern History, Royal Holloway, University of LondonWith a focus on the origins and evolution of political identity, this book explores the way different linguistic communities have defined kin, ethnicity, citizenship and the nation. As Neumann traces the transition over the last two centuries of European history, from the medieval to the modern age, he pays particular attention to the idealistic philosophies that have influenced the intellectual landscape and political discourse of European regions today, and which have intensified the division between East and West in terms of cultural norms, legislation and administration. Victor Neumann traces the transition of European history, paying particular attention to the idealistic philosophies that have influenced the intellectual landscape and political discourse of European regions today.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. "My perspective is that of a phenomenologist and specialist in French and Spanish cultures. As such, the book left a special impression on me: Neumann does not limit himself to the mentioned areas of Europe, but understands the continent in its entirety, that is, West and East as a whole." World Complexity Science AcademyThe Renaissance, the Reformation, the Enlightenment - these seismic developments in Western thought were not confined to Italy and her near neighbours, but were paralleled across the vast and culturally diverse territory stretching from Vienna to Constantinople.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Covering the transition from the medieval to the modern epoch, from around 1500 to 1800, in central and southeastern Europe, Neumann's history offers new information, interpretations and analysis of 'so-called peripheral regions'.
