Great Cauldron

We often think of the Balkans as a region beset by turmoil and backwardness, but from late antiquity to the present it has been a dynamic meeting place of cultures and religions. Marie-Janine Calic invites us to reconsider the history of this intriguing, diverse region as essential to the story of global Europe.

De multe ori ne gandim la Balcani ca la o regiune asaltata de framantari si inapoieri, dar de la antichitatea tarzie pana in prezent a fost un loc de intalnire dinamic al culturilor si religiilor. Marie-Janine Calic ne invita sa reconsideram istoria acestei regiuni intrigante, diverse, ca fiind esentiala pentru povestea Europei globale.
