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. 410 0$aEuropean studies (Amsterdam, Netherlands) ;$v26. 517 3 $aTextual scholarship and nation-building in nineteenth-century Europe 606 $aCriticism, Textual$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aCriticism, Textual$xPolitical aspects$zEurope$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aNationalism and literature$zEurope$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aNation-building$zEurope$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPhilology, Modern$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aCriticism, Textual$xHistory 615 0$aCriticism, Textual$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aNationalism and literature$xHistory 615 0$aNation-building$xHistory 615 0$aPhilology, Modern$xHistory 676 $a321.04094 701 $aHulle$b Dirk van$0292494 701 $aLeerssen$b Joseph Th$g(Joseph Theodoor),$f1955-$01121607 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820026303321 996 $aEditing the nation's memory$93993391 997 $aUNINA
