The emergence of the Balkan national states in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries has long been viewed through an Orientalist
lens, and their birth and evolution traditionally seen by scholars
as the effect of the Ottoman Empire's decline. As a result, the
role played by the great European revolutions, wars and
intellectual developments is often neglected. Rejecting these
traditional Orientalist narratives, this work examines Balkan
nationalist movements within their broader western European
historical contexts. Drawing on a range of unused archival research
and ranging from the Napoleonic era to the Bolshevik Revolution,
contributors variously consider the complex roles played by
Europe's internal geo-political ruptures in forming the Balkan
states, and demonstrate how the Balkan intelligentsia drew
inspiration from, and interacted with, contemporary European
thought. Shedding light onto the strong intellectual, political and
military connections between the regions, this is essential reading
for all those studying Balkan and European history, as well as
anyone interested in the question of national identity.
