The "bulwark" or antemurale myth has been a persistent strand in the development of Eastern European nationalisms, and Rampart Nations delves deeper to uncover the mutual transfers and multi-sided national and interconfessional conflicts that helped to spread bulwark myths through Europes eastern periphery over several centuries.

The "bulwark" or antemurale myth, in which a region is envisioned as a protective barrier against a perilous Other, has been a persistent thread in the development of Eastern European nationalisms. While historical studies of the topic have traditionally focused on clashes and overlaps between sociocultural and religious formations, Rampart Nations delves deeper to uncover the mutual transfers and multi-sided national and interconfessional conflicts that helped to spread bulwark myths throughout Europes eastern periphery over several centuries. This volume, spanning art history, theology, and political science, offers fresh perspectives on the political, social, and religious forces that continue to shape identity in Eastern Europe.
