Myths and Mythical Spaces

Conditions and Challenges for History Textbooks in Albania and South-Eastern Europe. Edited by Claudia Lichnofsky, Enriketa Pandelejmoni and Darko Stojanov. This volume addresses textbooks written in the Albanian language and in use in Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia and Serbia. Political myths and mythical spaces play a key role in shaping processes of identity-building, concepts of 'self' and 'other', and ideas pertaining to the location of the self and nation within a post-conflict context. The Albanian case is particularly interesting because the majority of Albanians live outside the borders of Albania, despite the existence of the nation-state, which gives rise to fascinating complexities regarding the shaping of national identities and myths surrounding concepts of 'self' and 'other'. With contributions by Durim Abdullahu, Denis Vuka, Fabio Beho et al. 275 Seiten mit 11 Abb., gebunden (Eckert. Die Schriftenreihe; Band 147/V&R unipress 2018) leichte Lagerspuren/minor shelfwear
