Who thought of Europe as a community before its economic
integration in 1957? Dina Gusejnova illustrates how a supranational
European mentality was forged from depleted imperial identities. In
the revolutions of 1917 to 1920, the power of the Hohenzollern,
Habsburg and Romanoff dynasties over their subjects expired. Even
though Germany lost its credit as a world power twice in that
century, in the global cultural memory, the old Germanic families
remained associated with the idea of Europe in areas reaching from
Mexico to the Baltic region and India. Gusejnova's book sheds light
on a group of German-speaking intellectuals of aristocratic origin
who became pioneers of Europe's future regeneration. In the minds
of transnational elites, the continent's future horizons retained
the contours of phantom empires. This title is available as Open
Access.
