Description

This scholarly study by Routledge examines how Czech speakers constructed their identity in the early modern period through writings about Islam and the Ottoman Empire. Unlike conventional narratives that marginalise the Czech lands, this work positions Czechs as central figures navigating their place between east and west. Laura Lisy-Wagner analyses descriptive and ethnographic texts produced by Czech authors, revealing how they shaped Czech identity not simply through opposition to Islamic cultures, but through complex engagement with Ottoman discourse. The book explores the period from 1453 to 1683, a crucial era for understanding transculturalism in early modern Europe. By examining these primary sources, the study demonstrates how Czech intellectual and cultural life was actively constructed through cross-cultural encounters. This volume is part of the Transculturalisms, 1400-1700 series, situating Czech experiences within broader European patterns of cultural contact and identity formation during the Renaissance and early modern periods.
