This new edition of Norman Davies's classic study of the history of Poland has been revised and fully updated with two new chapters to bring the story to the end of the twentieth century. The writing of Polish history, like Poland itself, has frequently fallen prey to interested parties. Professor Norman Davies adopts a sceptical stance towards all existing interpretations and attempts to bring a strong dose of common sense to his theme. He presents the most comprehensive survey in English of this frequently maligned and usually misunderstood country.

The “bulwark” or antemurale myth—whereby a region is imagined as a defensive barrier against a dangerous Other—has been a persistent strand in the development of Eastern European nationalisms. While historical studies of the topic have typically focused on clashes and overlaps between sociocultural and religious formations, Rampart Nations delves deeper to uncover the mutual transfers and multi-sided national and interconfessional conflicts that helped to spread bulwark myths through Europe’s eastern periphery over several centuries. Ranging from art history to theology to political science, this volume offers new ways of understanding the political, social, and religious forces that continue to shape identity in Eastern Europe.

In europäischer Vergleichsperspektive nimmt die Religionsgeschichte der Albaner eine Sonderstellung ein. Sunnitischer Islam, der muslimische Derwischorden der Bektashi, das orthodoxe und das katholische Christentum haben sich seit dem Mittelalter zu einem vielschichtigen Zusammenleben zwischen friedlichem Nebeneinander und Phasen verstärkter Abgrenzung entwickelt. Die Volksrepublik Albanien war zudem im 20. Jahrhundert der einzige offiziell atheistische Staat der Welt. Dieser Band vermittelt einen Einblick in die Geschichte der Religionen und Konfessionen seit dem Mittelalter und behandelt zentrale Fragen des Verhältnisses von Religion, Identität und Gesellschaft.
