Book Review: Transnational patriotism in the Mediterranean, 1800–1850

Abstract

This book has rightly won widespread praise. It traces the multi-sited regional emergence of nationalisms and thus avoids from the outset the internalism that so many histories of national movements fall into: explaining the emergence of nationalism from with the bosom of the pre-existing national community as it responded to its circumstances and challenges.
