Recensioner i media

'The series is aimed at the general reader but this volume will nevertheless be an extremely useful starting point for anyone interested in the development of regional and national identities in Europe, and is especially suited to students of France or of other Celtic cultures. It also provides groundwork that would allow for a fresh approach to European culture that moves beyond disagreements over the stretching of the word 'post-colonial', to embrace new case-studies of cultural complexity such as that of modern-day Brittany.' Heather Williams, French Studies, Vol. 63, No. 3, July 2009
