The New Greeks : Polish Romantics' Historicism and the Emergence of Altertumswissenschaft

The book discusses how Polish scholars created an image of ancient Greece in the first half of the nineteenth century. In an era when Poles were deprived of their own independent state, classical philology, historiography, and literary studies became the arena of struggle to mark one's own subjectivity on the map of Europe's rival humanities.
