Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0300073127, Hardcover)

Through much of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, writers and filmmakers in the West created a fictional Balkan land, a "Wild East" region of Europe. This pioneering book examines a wide range of Balkan-inspired imagery and shows how it has affected and still influences attitudes toward the countries of the region as well as the West`s political involvement there.
