From the German Black Forest to the Romanian and Ukrainian shores where it flows into the Black Sea, Europe¿s second longest river connects ten countries, while its watershed covers four more.

Yet the river has attracted surprisingly little scholarly attention, and what exists too often privileges single disciplinary or national perspectives.
