Being the result of a conference on the shaping of national narratives at the University of Glamorgan in May 2004, this book relates to the relationship between nation and narration. 14 essays on the topic are written by authors rooted in different academic disciplines, ranging from History to Comparative Literature and Political Science. Beginning with three chapters on the relationship between scientific history writing and national narratives (part I), the following parts (II-IV) deal with the promotion of national narratives in the fields of literature, film, and the fine arts, including music, while covering the period from the early nineteenth century to the present day. Containing two essays on non-European perspectives of national history writing, the concluding part (V) focuses on North America and East Asia (Japan and Korea).
