Download or read book A Concise History of Bosnia written by Cathie Carmichael and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Concise History of Bosnia integrates the political, economic and cultural history of this fascinating, beautiful, but much misunderstood country. Drawing on a wide range of primary and secondary literature, this objective and engaging history covers developments in the region up to the present day and offers an accessible interpretation of an often contested and controversial history. Importantly, Cathie Carmichael looks at Bosnia over the long term, moving away from a narrow focus on the 1990s to offer a historical rather than a nationalist perspective on events. Integrated within the narrative account, there is a particular focus on the themes of culture and religion, and the effect of geography and regional changes in the landscape on Bosnian history. Engaging and authoritative, the book succinctly explores how Bosnia has changed over many centuries, and focuses on the dynamic and creative aspects of Bosnia's past as well as the darker elements.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Montenegro written by Bojka Djukanovic and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical Dictionary of Montenegro covers a period of some fifteen centuries during which the name of the country changed from Doclea, through Zeta to Montenegro, and its political status evolved from a loose community of tribes to a principality, a kingdom, a district, a banate, and a constitutive republic, from disappearing from the political map of the world in the first half of the twentieth century to a state with full independence at the start of the twenty-first century. This book features a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 800 cross-referenced entries on important personalities as well as aspects of the country’s politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Montenegro.

Download or read book Great Britain and the Creation of Yugoslavia written by James Evans and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-30 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The final weeks of World War I saw a revolutionary upheaval in Europe, as old empires collapsed and new, self-proclaimed 'nation-states' emerged in their place. For its advocates, the Yugoslav state created in 1918 represented a largely uniform culture and identity. But as its official name - the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes - suggested, its population was by no means homogeneous. Too late, the British - who had been instrumental in the birth of the state at Versailles - as well as other Europeans and the Americans came to appreciate that divisions of religious affiliation and historical tradition continued to override linguistic unity. James Evans analyses British ideas and assumptions about the region's history and culture and assesses how these were reshaped by newly prevalent ideas about Yugoslav nationality. Attitudes and preconceptions first formed during this period would prove remarkably enduring, making their mark on British responses to events in Yugoslavia throughout the country's troubled history. "Great Britain and the Creation of Yugoslavia" sheds valuable light not only on attitudes to Yugoslav nationality in the early 20th century, but also on western responses to the violent demise of the Yugoslav state at the century's close.
