Do narratives make nations, and if so, did networks make this
happen? The notion that national and other group identities are
constructed and sustained by narratives and images has been widely
postulated for several decades now. This volume contributes to this
debate, with a particular emphasis on the networked, transnational
nature of cultural nation-building processes in a comparative
European and sometimes extra-European context. It gathers together
essays that engage with objects of study ranging from poetry,
prose, and political ideas to painting, porcelain, and popular
song, and which draw on examples in Icelandic, Arabic, German,
Irish, Hungarian, and French, among other languages. The
contributors study transcultural phenomena from the medieval and
early modern periods through to the modern and postmodern era,
frequently challenging conventional periodizations and analytical
frameworks based on the idea of the nation-state.
