Product Description
A new collection of essays from one of Britain’s most renowned and respected historians — a companion volume to the bestselling Europe.
Collected here for the first time are some of the numerous essays and lectures by Norman Davies, author of the best-selling and critically acclaimed Europe, The Isles, and Rising ‘44. Spanning over a decade-and-a-half of his remarkably prodigious career, this highly accessible collection addresses many of the issues that continue to dominate the political and cultural climate of Europe today.
In Europe East and West, Davies argues for a comprehensive view that challenges Western stereotypes and no longer ignores the history and experience of Eastern Europe. He shows that the conventional exclusion of Central and Eastern Europe has led to serious shortcomings in our understanding of the Second World War. The essays collected in this volume confront prevalent distortions and prejudices. Taken together, they also form a meditation on the art of history writing itself.
