Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Peripheral cultures have been largely absent from the European canon of historiography. Seeking to redress the balance, Monika Baar discusses the achievements of five East-Central European historians in the nineteenth century: Joachim Lelewel (Polish); Simonas Daukantas (Lithuanian); Franti&sek Palacky (Czech); Mihaly Horvath (Hungarian) and Mihail Kog&alniceanu (Romanian). Comparing their efforts to promote a unifiedvision of national culture in their respective countries, Baar illuminates the complexities of historical writing in the region in the nineteenth century.Drawing on previously untranslated documents, Baar reconstructs thescholars' shared intellectual background and their nationalistic aims, arguing that historians on the European periphery made significant contributions to historical writing, and had far more in common with their Western and Central European contemporaries than has been previously assumed. Monika Baar examines the work of five prominent East-Central European historians in the nineteenth century, analyzing and contrasting their body of work, their promotion of a national culture, and the contributions they made to European historiography.
