Classical Heritage and European Identities: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Classical Heritage and European Identities" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Classical Heritage and European Identities examines how the heritages of classical antiquity have been used to construct European identities, and especially the concept of citizenship, in Denmark from the eighteenth century to the present day. It implements a critical historiographical perspective in line with recent work on the reception of classical antiquity that has stressed the dialectic relationship between past, present and future.

Arguing that the continuous employment and appropriation of lassical heritages in the Danish context constitutes an interesting case of an imagined geography that is simultaneously based on both national and European identities, the book shows how Denmarks imagined geography is naturalized through very distinctive uses of classical heritages within the educational and heritage sectors.

Classical Heritage and European Identities
Classical Heritage and European Identities examines how the heritages of classical antiquity have been used to construct European identities, and especially the concept of citizenship, in Denmark from the eighteenth century to the present day. It implements a critical historiographical perspective in line with recent work on the reception of classical antiquity that has stressed the dialectic relationship between past, present and future.
Arguing that the continuous employment and appropriation of classical heritages in the Danish context constitute an interesting case of an imagined geography that is simultaneously based on both national and European identities, this book shows how Denmarks imagined geography is naturalised through very distinctive uses of classical heritages within the educational and heritage sectors. It does so by exploring three significant and interrelated arenas where the heritages of classical antiquity are used to shape Danes as European citizens. Together, these three cases emphasise different but interconnected ways in which classical heritages are being put to use in order to construct Denmarks own distinctive national identity within Europe. Finally, the book also sheds light on some of the challenges that face unified and homogenous conceptions of European heritage and identity, as well as the notion of the classical itself.
Classical Heritage and European Identities is the first English-language monograph to situate the Danish case within the wider European context. As such, the book should be essential reading for researchers and students engaged in the study of heritage and museums, classics, education and modern European history.

Critical Heritages of Europe
Series editors: Christopher Whitehead and Susannah Eckersley
The Critical Heritages of Europe series seeks to explore the cultural and social politics of the European past in the present. Bridging theoretical and empirical research, the series accommodates broad understandings of Europe a shifting and historically mutable entity, made both of internal tensions and exogenous encounters, reimaginings and influences. Heritage also is taken as an expansive paradigm, made in myriad practices where the past is valorised for the present, from folk traditions to museums and memorials, the management of historic sites and traditions, and everyday matters such as education, political discourse, home life, food consumption and peoples relations with place.
Books in the series engage with European heritages in critical times in all senses when Europe and mobilisations of its heritages and memories are called upon to solve problems and when contests over the meanings of the past are part of wider social and political relations and tensions. Heritage practices are variously informed by civil and uncivil visions, the politics of difference and copresence, dif ficult pasts, relations with the outside, borders, margins and migrations. Critical questions include:
  • What is the European past made to do in the present and for the future?
  • What counts as European heritage? To whom, and why?
  • How and why do relationships with, and attitudes to, the past inform identity positions, social orders and moral values in, or in relation to, Europe?
  • When and where in the (wider) world do European heritages configure identities?
  • What are the contemporary meanings and effects of global encounters, mobilities and trajectories in which Europe has played roles?
  • What theoretical and critical perspectives can be articulated to contribute new understandings of European heritages? How might these be made relevant for current and future heritage practice?
  • What are the relations between theory, criticality, ethics and heritage practice in the European dimension?
