This accessible and engaging book covers the full span of Serbia's
history, from the sixth-century Slav migrations up to the present
day. It traces key developments surrounding the medieval and modern
polities associated with Serbs, revealing a fascinating history of
entanglements and communication between southeastern and wider
Europe, sometimes with global implications. This is a history of
Serb states, institutions, and societies, which also gives voice to
individual experiences in an attempt to understand how the events
described impacted the people who lived through them. Although no
real continuity between the pre-modern and modern periods exists,
Dejan Djokic draws out several common themes, including:
migrations; the Serbs' relations with neighbouring empires and
peoples; Serbia as a society formed in the imperial borderlands;
and the polycentricity of Serbia. The volume also highlights the
surprising vitality of Serb identity, and how it has survived in
different incarnations over the centuries through reinvention.
