Romania, Culture & Nationalism - A Tribute to Radu Florescu

This volume comprises nine essays by well-known historians of Romania and Eastern Europe. The essays are based largely on recent, unpublished sources. Their topics range from studies on medieval history and culture -- including the age of Vlad Tepes (Vlad the Impaler) -- to this century's turmoils in and around the establishment of communist rule and its 1989 collapse.
