Fifty-one texts illustrate the evolution of modernism in Eastern
Europe. Essays, articles, poems, or excerpts from longer works
offer new opportunities of possible comparisons of the respective
national cultures. The volume focuses on the literary and
scientific attempts at squaring the circle of individual and
collective identities. Often outspokenly critical of the romantic
episteme, these texts reflect a more sophisticated and critical
stance than in the preceding periods. At the same time, rather than
representing a complete rupture, they often continue and confirm
the romantic identity narratives, albeit with "other means". The
volume also presents the ways national minorities sought to
legitimize their existence with reference to their cultural and
institutional peculiarity.
