At the heart of much of their writing lay the ideological project of nation-building. Hence discourses around periodization – such as the mythicizing of certain periods, the invention of historical continuity and the assertion of national specificity – contributed strongly to identity construction. Central to the book’s approach is a transnational exploration of how the art histories of the region not only interacted with established Western periodizations but also resonated and ‘entangled’ with each other. In their efforts to develop more sympathetic frameworks that refined, ignored or hybridized Western models, they sought to overcome the centre–periphery paradigm which equated distance from the centre with temporal belatedness and artistic backwardness. The book thus demonstrates that the concept of periodization is far from neutral or strictly descriptive, and that its use in art history needs to be reconsidered. Bringing together a broad range of scholars from different European institutions, the volume offers a unique new perspective on Central and Eastern European art historiography. It will be of interest to scholars working in art history, historiography and European studies.Studies in Art Historiography SeriesArtHistoriographyEurope, CentralHistoryPeriodizationEurope, EasternHistoryPeriodizationart historyBalticBulgariaByzantineCentral EuropeCroatiaEastern EuropeEast Central EuropeEstoniaEuropean studiesglobalisationglobalisedglobalizationglobalizedHungaryhistoire croiseehistoire croiséehistoriographynationalismnation buildingPolandperiodizationRomaniaRussiaresearchsocialismTransylvaniatransnationalwesternArtHistoriography.707.2 Kallestrup Shonaedt1355457Kallestrup ShonaNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910586637103321Periodization in the Art Historiographies of Central and Eastern Europe3359548UNINA
