The nineteenth-century reflection on Europe’s national identities involved a re-inventory and revalorisation of the vernacular cultural past and, above all, the nation’s literary heritage. Everywhere in Europe, foundational texts (including medieval epics and romances, ancient laws and chronicles) were retrieved from their obscure repositories. In new, printed editions, prepared according to the emerging academic standards of textual scholarship, they were appropriated, contested and canonised as public symbols of the nation’s permanence in history. This often neglected, but crucially important Europe-wide process of ‘editing the nation’s memory’ involved old states and emerging nations, large and small countries, metropolitan and peripheral regions; it straddled politics, the academic professionalization of textual scholarship and of the human sciences, and literary taste. This collection of studies by outstanding specialists offers a comparative synopsis on exemplary cases from all corners of the European continent.European studies (Amsterdam, Netherlands) ;26.Criticism, TextualHistory19th centuryCriticism, TextualPolitical aspectsEuropeHistory19th centuryNationalism and literatureEuropeHistory19th centuryNation-buildingEuropeHistory19th centuryPhilology, ModernHistory19th centuryElectronic books.Criticism, TextualHistoryCriticism, TextualPolitical aspectsHistoryNationalism and literatureHistoryNation-buildingHistoryPhilology, ModernHistory321.04094Hulle Dirk van292494Leerssen Joseph Th(Joseph Theodoor),1955-959397MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454236503321Editing the nation's memory2173897UNINA
