Jiří Přibáň, Karel Hvížďala
In Quest of History
On Czech Statehood and Identity
A dialogue of Karel Hvížďala, a curious journalist from Prague, with Jiří Přibáň, philosopher of law from the British Cardiff, about the turning points of our history at the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Republic with a broad geographic and temporal context from 9th to 21st century. This broad span allows to have a look at our past and ask why and how we percieved and understood out history and what it means for out present and our future. This search is also connected to an attempt not to reduce history into a projection of out frustrations. The authors chose the form of a dialogue while trying to return into the public space questions that are often avoided, or only asked on university campuses.
Contents:
Preface
History and National Identity
The Formation of Nations and Nationalism
Law without the State and State Law: from the Middle Ages to Modernity
