Transatlantic Central Europe : contesting geography and redefining culture beyond the nation / Jessie Labov. - 1 online resource (xv, 213 pages, 16 pages of plates) : illustrations, color maps
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction: Movements of texts across borders -- Part One. Cross Currents and its transatlantic Central European imaginary -- The political-cultural journal : the case of Cross Currents -- The debate over Central Europe from Jews to Yugoslavia -- Part Two. Further essays in contesting geography and redefining culture -- Borders, editors, and readers in motion -- Transmedial work-arounds after 1989 -- Conclusion: Redefining transatlantic Central Europe today.
The concept of Central Europe has receded as a political and intellectual project, and the term has lost most of the weight it had in the 1980s and early 1990s. Proponents of a distinct cultural profile of this group of countries all now involved in the process of Transatlantic integration used Central European as an alternative for the geo-political label of Eastern Europe. This book discusses the transnational set of practices connecting journals with other media in the mid-1980s that disseminated the idea of Central Europe simultaneously in East and West.
