Meer over het boek

Focusing on twelve lesser-studied cities of the Habsburg Monarchy, Catherine Horel explores the rich societal, ethnic, and cultural diversity that characterized the empire's final decades. By highlighting cities such as Arad, Sarajevo, and Trieste, she challenges the prevailing narrative that centers on larger urban centers, offering a more nuanced understanding of the region's complexity and diversity. This comparative analysis sheds light on the unique contributions of these cities to the broader historical context of the Habsburg Monarchy.
