'This book, which is above all a history of political ideology, and primarily of the intellectual circles in which it was discussed and the publications that promoted it, fills important gaps in our knowledge of the region’s political culture. The book...is based on extensive original research using a wide range of contemporary publications and a thorough reading of the secondary literature...the book constitutes a welcome contribution to our understanding of the history of east central Europe.'Tim Kirk, Professor of European History, Newcastle University'The book is a valuable and noteworthy publication...I am sure that Raluca Elena Goleşteanu-Jacobs’s work will contribute to disseminating knowledge about Austrian Galicia among researchers in Romania and other historians specialising in the sociocultural history of nineteenth-century Europe. With this publication, the forgotten province of Europe has burst onto the main European stage.'
