Recenzii
Todorova is particularly good at bringing to life specific individuals caught up in the Bulgarian socialist movement. The practical, romantic, and ideological world of these young idealists (who then, alas, grew old) opens up new insights into the history of Europe, socialism, and the Balkans.
A rich history of socialist militants from outside the movement's Western Europe core.
Specialists will be drawn to Todorova's uncanny ability to question established interpretations and offer fresh perspectives from the "periphery." Advanced students will profit as Todorova walks readers through the process of making sense of data, archival fragments, and varied theoretical approaches to connect personal dramas to national and continental developments.
This brilliant study by Maria Todorova makes crucial contributions both to the history of European socialism and the history of southeastern Europe, while also offering a pioneering investigation of the history of the sentiments and emotions in relation to political thought.
The Bulgarian socialist movement was one of the main intellectual transmitter belts for political, social and economic ideas between Russia, Western Europe and Germany--the stronghold of international socialism before World War I--on the one hand and post-Ottoman Bulgaria on the other. Maria Todorova brilliantly reconstructs a "lost world": The pan-European network of socialist theoreticians and activists like Blagoev and Kautsky, Kirkov and Trotsky, and many others. A must read for every Europeanist!
A triumphant vindication of the historian's view from the periphery. Using Bulgaria as the fulcrum for her analysis, Todorova challenges taken-for-granted approaches to early European socialism, while at the same time re-animating the ideas, experiences and emotions of men and women who shared the potent dream of 'a utopia of the future'.
