Publisher's Synopsis
39 authors from different academic disciplines approach Eastern Europe from different angles. Special attention is given to the historical spaces of Galicia and the Black Sea region, but several contributions transcend spatial classifications. They emphasize translocal perspectives, consider colonialism and imperialism or the orientalising views on these processes. Other essays focus on social, national, and religious issues in Central and Eastern Europe, a space that is so rich in identities and alterities. Finally, some essays examine how specific historical events are/were remembered or processed in literature.
