Based on the cultural insight that ‘historism’ – understood as the projection of the past into the present by artistic means, or the ‘invention of tradition’ – always occurs in close connection with the emergence of nation states, this volume describes for the first time the cultural and denominational character and development of the Maas-Rhine region during the period between the French Revolution and the First World War. Seventeen contributions shed new and revealing light on the cultural identity of this Catholic-dominated core region of Europe, using the defining term ‘historism’ as the historiographical element that unifies the book’s four sections (Social and Church Historical Context, The Organisational Structure of Ecclesiastical Art, Centres of Art, ‘Grenzgänger’: between Theory and Praxis).

From the early nineteenth century till the middle of the twentieth century, cultures in Europe were primarily national. They were organized and conceived of as attributes of the nation states. Nonetheless, these national cultures crossed borders with an unprecedented intensity even before globalization transformed the very concept of culture. During that long period, European cultures have imported and exported products, techniques, values, and ideas, relying on invisible but efficient international networks. The central agents of these networks are considered mediators: translators, publishers, critics, artists, art dealers and collectors, composers. These agents were not only the true architects of intercultural transfer, they also largely contributed to the shaping of a common canon and of aesthetic values that became part of the history of national cultures. Cultural Mediation in Europe, 1800-1950 analyses the strategic transfer roles of cultural mediators active in large parts of Western Europe in domains as varied as literature, music, painting, or art design.ContributorsAmelie Auzoux (Universite Paris IV-Sorbonne), Christophe Charle (Universite Paris I-Pantheon-Sorbonne), Kate Kangaslahti (KU Leuven), Vesa Kurkela (University of the Arts, Helsinki), Anne O'Connor (University of Galway), Saijaleena Rantanen (University of the Arts, Helsinki), Agnes Anna Sebestyen (Archaeolingua Publishing House), Inmaculada Seron Ordonez (University of Malaga), Renske Suijver (Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam), Tom Toremans (KU Leuven), Dirk Weissmann (Universite Paris-Est Creteil)
