商品簡介
Historians specializing in early modern Europe present 19 papers from a March 2013 conference in Sophia on the concept of cultural, religious, and national borders on the eve of the modern world. The sections cover political and geostrategic borders, bordering regions, and bordering "Turkey in Europe." Among specific topics are the distinctiveness of the Habsburg-Ottoman border in the 18th century, alternative paths towards the age of mercantilism: the Venetian project of the Scala Di Spalato, the process of establishing the border between Russia and the Ottoman Empire in the Peace Treaty of Adrianople in 1713, regions and borders during revolutionary transformations: the example of the papal enclaves Avignon and the Comtat Venaissin in the years of the French Revolution, and revisiting early Ottoman urban morphology in southeastern Europe.
