Were they simply monuments of the national past, or did new ideas about their meanings and possible roles emerge in the nineteenth century as an interconnected European phenomenon? If so, how did these connections work and why do they still matter today? Drawing on examples from Slavic literatures, music and the arts, the book shows how national epics helped shape modern European cultural identities – and why they remain symbols of enduring controversies that continue to demand memory work.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nContributors are: Tamás Berkes, Jean Boutan, Olga Čadajeva, Anna Cavazzoni, Mark-Georg Dehrmann, Dalibor Dobiáš, Andraž Jež, Michał Kuziak, Pavla Machalíková, Aleksandar Pavlović, and Aleksandra Wojda.","brand":"Dalibor Dobiáš","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48780215746811,"sku":"9789004689039","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/slavic-national-epics-9789004689039","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
