Classical Heritage and European Identities examines how the
heritages of classical antiquity have been used to construct
European identities, and especially the concept of citizenship, in
Denmark from the eighteenth century to the present day. It
implements a critical historiographical perspective in line with
recent work on the "reception" of classical antiquity that has
stressed the dialectic relationship between past, present and
future. Arguing that the continuous employment and appropriation of
lassical heritages in the Danish context constitutes an interesting
case of an imagined geography that is simultaneously based on both
national and European identities, the book shows how Denmark's
imagined geography is naturalized through very distinctive uses of
classical heritages within the educational and heritage sectors.
