The Creation of National Spaces in a Pluricultural Region

The Case of Prussian Lithuania

Beschreibung

Explores the spatial concepts that two erstwhile neighboring cultures, Lithuanian and German, once associated with one physical space - a Lithuanian region in Prussia. Covering a period of five centuries, the author explores how, when, and, most importantly, why these concepts have been developed and transformed, regulating the spatial imagination of several generations.
