This book analyses the development of German territorial states in
the nineteenth century through the prism of five Mittelstaaten:
Bavaria, Saxony, Hanover, Wurttemberg, and Baden. It asks how a
state becomes a place, and argues that it involves a contested and
multi-faceted process, one of slow and uneven progress. The study
approaches this question from a new and crucial angle, that of
spatiality and public mobility. The issues covered range from the
geography of state apparatus, the aesthetics of German cartography
and the trajectories of public movement. Challenging the belief
that territorial delimitation is primarily a matter of policy and
diplomacy, this book reveals that political territories are
constructed through daily practices and imagination.
