Throughout Europe, nostalgia and modernization embraced around 1800: the rise of historicism coincided with the emergence of the modern nation-state. Poetical, cultural changes intersected with political, institutional ones: a Romantic taste for medieval or tribal antiquity benefited from a modernization-driven transfer of cultural relics into the public sphere. This process involved the establishment of museums, libraries, archives and university institutes, as well as the dissemination of historical knowledge through text editions, philological studies, historical novels, plays, operas and paintings, monuments and restorations. Antiquaries, philologists and historians produced a new past and rendered history a matter of public, national interest and collective identification.
This international and interdisciplinary collection explores the romantic-historicist complexities at the root of the modern nation-state.

Contributors are Ellinoor Bergvelt, Eveline G. Bouwers, Peter Fritzsche, Paula Henrikson, Sharon Ann Holt, Lotte Jensen, Krisztina Lajosi, Joep Leerssen, Susanne Legêne, Marita Mathijsen, Mathias Meirlaen, Peter Rietbergen, Anne-Marie Thiesse, and Robert Verhoogt.

Recenzii

This is [...] an important volume for anyone interested in understanding the wider social and cultural contexts of folklore study in the nineteenth century—which still often affect our discipline—but also for scholars concerned with the role of nostalgia in culture, modernization, national histories, and cultural heritage.
David Elton Gay, Journal of Folklore Research: An International Journal of Folklore and Ethnomusicology, January 16, 2012

The second in the series National Cultivation of Culture, [...] is an important collection that focuses on changes in attitudes to the past linked to Romanticism and other aspects of development at the cusp of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Based on conference papers, the individual chapters are of great interest [...].
Jeremy Black, European Review of History—Revue Européenne d’Histoire, Vol. 19 No. 3, p. 464-465

...this is a volume with interesting case studies...
