Geographically, the Caucasus has traditionally been a buffer between Russia, Turkey and Iran. Part Russian Federation, part Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, the area has a tradition of fast-shifting partnerships, of rich and varied cultural heritage, and fierce ethnic tensions going back centuries. This fascinating volume creates an illuminating perspective on the politics, history and culture of the Caucasus: it includes an account of how several 19th century Hungarian linguists fascinated by the region's famously difficult languages conducted field research still used by politicians to prove or disprove ethnic links; an analysis of the recurring forcible movements of the people; a study of the region's Russian Imperial past; an exploration of the Muslim North/Christian South division in the context of the recent conflicts and their international ramifications; the elite-driven nature of the region's politics; finally, the role of art as a medium of freedom in the war-torn zones of the region. Necessary reading for everyone with an interest in the history of one of the world's tinderboxes. 410 0$aAmsterdam contributions. 606 $aHISTORY / Europe / Baltic States$2bisacsh 607 $aCaucasus$xHistory$y21st century 607 $aCaucasus$xCivilization 607 $aCaucasus$xPolitics and government$y21st century 615 7$aHISTORY / Europe / Baltic States. 676 $a947.52 702 $aCompanjen$b Franc?oise 702 $aMara?cz$b La?szlo?
