The growth of nations, national ideologies and the accompanying quest for the 'authentic' among 'the people' has been a subject of enquiry for many disciplines. Building upon wide-ranging scholarship, this interdisciplinary study seeks to analyse the place of folklore in the long nineteenth century throughout Europe as an important symbol in the growth and development of nations and nationalism, and in particular to see how combining perspectives from History, Literary Studies, Music and Architecture can help provide enhanced and refreshing perspectives on the complex process of nation-building. With a range of detailed case studies drawing upon archival, literary, visual and musical sources as well as material culture, it raises questions about individual countries but also about links and similarities across Europe.

Timothy Baycroft, PhD (Cambridge), is Senior Lecturer in French History at the University of Sheffield. He has published widely on regionalism and nationalism in France and Europe, as well as border studies, including France: Inventing the Nation (Arnold, 2008).

David Hopkin, PhD (Cambridge) is Fellow and Tutor in History at Hertford College, University of Oxford. He has published extensively on oral culture and the relationship between folklore and history, including Voices of the People in Nineteenth Century France (Cambridge University Press, 2012).
