Wer sich im frühneuzeitlichen Bern, in Königsberg, Dorpat oder Trient als "Deutscher" bezeichnete, verband damit keine herrschaftliche Zuordnung. Gemeint waren eher ethnisch-kulturelle Gemeinsamkeiten. Gerade der europäische Vergleich zeigt die Besonderheiten dieser "offen" deutschen Nationsbildung, die in der Frühen Neuzeit weit über den politischen Rahmen des Alten Reiches hinausgriff, ohne daraus staatliche Integrationsansprüche abzuleiten. Das Buch versammelt 15 Beiträge renommierter Wissenschaftler, die die Entwicklung der frühneuzeitlichen deutschen Nation in den europäischen Kontext stellen. Diskutiert werden Fragen der politischen Ordnung, der kulturellen Identität sowie des Austauschs mit den Nachbarn. Beiträge von Astrid Ackermann, Hans-Jürgen Bömelburg, Horst Carl, Meinrad von Engelberg, Daniel Fulda, Alfred Kohler, Dieter Langewiesche, Thomas Maissen, Michael North, Klaus Pietschmann, Alexander Schmidt, Georg Schmidt, Luise Schorn-Schütte, Siegrid Westphal, Joachim Whaley, Peter Wilson, Martin Wrede.

Sounds French examines the history of popular music in France between the arrival of rock and roll in 1958 and the collapse of the first wave of punk in 1980, and the connections between musical genres and concepts of community in French society. During this period, scholars have tended to view the social upheavals associated with postwar reconstruction as part of debates concerning national identity in French culture and politics, a tendency that developed from political figures' and intellectuals' concerns with French national identity. In this book, author Jonathyne Briggs reorients the scholarship away from an exclusive focus on national identity and instead towards an investigation of other identities that develop as a result of the increased globalization of culture.Popular music, at once individual and communal, fixed and plastic, offers an illuminating window into such transformations in social structures through the ways in which musicians, musical consumers, and critical intermediaries re-imagined themselves as part of novel cultural communities, whether local, national, or supranational in nature. Briggs argues that national identity was but one of a panoply of identities in flux during the postwar period in France, demonstrating that the development of hybridized forms of popular music provided the French with a method for expressing and understanding that flux. Drawing upon an array of printed and aural sources, including music publications, sound recordings, record sleeves, biographies, and cultural criticism, Sounds French is an essential new look at popular music in postwar France.

This book explores the political ideas of the Belgian Revolution of 1830, which led to the break-up of the Restoration state of the ‘united’ Kingdom of the Netherlands. It uncovers the origins of liberalism and political Catholicism in the Southern Netherlands in the wake of the French Revolution, and traces the development of political language in the context of the tensions between the Northern and Southern part of the united Netherlands. It shows how differences in ‘Dutch’ and ‘Belgian’ political and intellectual history resulted in different understandings of essential political concepts such as ‘sovereignty’ and ‘balance of powers’, as well as of the nature of the constitutional order of 1815. Finally, it traces the emergence of Belgian nationalism within the discourse of opposition against the government. Stefaan Marteel therefore provides a fresh perspective on the intellectual background of the rise of the nation-state in the nineteenth century.
