Set in a multiethnic region of the nineteenth-century Habsburg
Empire, this thoroughly interdisciplinary study maps out how the
competing Romanian, Hungarian and German nationalization projects
dealt with proper names. With particular attention to their
function as symbols of national histories, Berecz makes a case for
names as ideal guides for understanding historical imaginaries and
how they operate socially. In tracing the changing fortunes of
nationalization movements and the ways in which their efforts were
received by mass constituencies, he provides an innovative and
compelling account of the historical utilization, manipulation, and
contestation of names.
