The term and widespread interest in the region itself came back after the end of the Cold War, which used to divide Europe politically into East and West, splitting Central Europe in half.[1][2] It was followed by the EU accession of the Visegrád Group member states.[3] The concept of Central Europe, and that of a common cultural identity, is somewhat elusive.[4][5][6] However, scholars assert that a distinct “Central European cul- ture, as controversial and debated the notion may be, exists”.[7][8] It is based on “similarities emanating from historical, social and cultural characteristics",[7][9] and it is identified as having been “one of the world’s richest sources of creative talent” between the 17th and 20th centuries.[10] Cross Currents: A Yearbook of Central Eu- ropean Culture characterizes Central Europe “as an aban- doned West or a place where East and West collide”.[11] Germany’s Constant Committee for Geographical Names Central Europe according to P. Jones (Leibniz Institute defines Central Europe both as a distinct cultural area for Regional Geography).

Huntington Commonwealth; thus they also have historical and places the region firmly within Western culture.[15] cultural connections. From the 2000s on, Central Europe has been going through a phase of “strategic awakening”,[16] with ini- tiatives like the CEI, Centrope or V4. While the re- gion’s economy shows high disparities with regard to income,[17] all Central European countries are listed by the Human Development Index as “very high develop- ment” countries.[18] 1 2 1 HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE In 1335 under the rule of the King Charles I of Hungary, the castle of Visegrád, the seat of the Hungarian monar- chs was the scene of the royal summit of the Kings of Poland, Bohemia and Hungary.[26] They agreed to coop- erate closely in the field of politics and commerce, in- spiring their late successors to launch a successful Central European initiative.[26] In the Middle Ages, countries in Central Europe adopted Magdeburg rights. 1.2 Before World War I Central Europe according to Lonnie Johnson, Central Europe: Enemies, Neighbors, Friends [20] 1 Historical perspective 1.1 Middle Ages Elements of unity for Western and Central Europe were A view of Central Europe dating from the time before the First [27] Roman Catholicism and Latin.

However, the con- flict of interests was too big and neither Little Entente nor Intermarium (Międzymorze) ideas succeeded. 1.3 Interwar period The interwar period brought new elements to the con- cept of Central Europe. Before World War I, it embraced mainly German states (Germany, Austria), non-German territories being an area of intended German penetration and domination – German leadership position was to be the natural result of economic dominance.[29] After the war, the Eastern part of Central Europe was placed at the centre of the concept. At that time the scientists took in- terest in the idea: the International Historical Congress in Brussels in 1923 was committed to Central Europe, and Interwar Central Europe according to Emmanuel de the 1933 Congress continued the discussions.[37] Martonne (1927) Hungarian scholar Magda Adam wrote in her study Ver- sailles System and Central Europe (2006): “Today we know that the bane of Central Europe was the Little Entente, military alliance of Czechoslovakia, Romania and Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later Yu- goslavia), created in 1921 not for Central Europe’s coop- eration nor to fight German expansion, but in a wrong per- ceived notion that a completely powerless Hungary must be kept down”.[37] The avant-garde movements of Central Europe were an essential part of modernism’s evolution, reaching its Little Entente, Central European defense union of peak throughout the continent during the 1920s.

  • Between France and Romania, Between Science and Propaganda
    Between France and Romania, between Science and Propaganda. Emmanuel de Martonne in 1919 Gavin Bowd Abstract: In the aftermath of the Great War, the geographer Emmanuel de Martonne, who began his scientific work in Romania and was a vocal advocate of that country’s intervention in the conflict, placed his knowledge and prestige at the service of redrawing the frontiers of what would become Greater Romania. This article looks at the role of de Martonne as traceur de frontières during the Paris Peace Conference, notably his manipulation of ethnic cartography. At the same time, as this partisan use of “science” shows, de Martonne is also a propagandist for the Romanian cause and post-war French influence. Thus, his confidential reports on the “lost provinces” of Transylvania, Banat, Bessarabia and Dobrogea must be seen in parallel with his published interventions and the place he occupies in a wider Franco- Romanian lobbying network. During the summer of 1919, de Martonne’s participation in a French mission universitaire to Romania plays a diplomatic role at a delicate stage of the Paris negotiations. The fate of his scientific interventions is also subject to the vicissitudes of the war’s aftermath and to the weight of lobbies hostile to Romanian territorial claims, notably on Hungary and Russia, two countries plunged into civil war. The geographer Emmanuel de Martonne, who had been a vocal supporter of Romanian intervention on the side of the Triple Entente and of the creation of a Greater Romania, was not in Europe at the time of the armistice: he was on a mission to the United States from September to December 1918.

  • Emmanuel De Martonne – Moștenirea Știinifică
    Vasile BUDUI Lector univ. dr. Universitatea „Ștefan cel Mare” din Suceava Suceava, România Emmanuel de Martonne – moștenirea științifică Rezumat: Emmanuel Louis Eugène de Martonne (1873-1955) este unul dintre marile nume din paginile de istorie ale geografiei României, deși nu a avut origini românești. Savantul francez, a intrat în rândul cercetătorilor geografi la sfârșitul secolului al XIX- lea, într-o perioadă în care majoritatea științelor Pământului deja afirmate erau în plină dezvoltare metodologică. Marele geograf de mai târziu a urmat cursurile a două specializări universitare la prestigioasa Școală normală superioară din Paris, obținând o licență în istorie și geografie și o a doua în geologie și biologie, și cursurile școlii geografice germane de la Berlin, dobândind destul de timpuriu o pregătire geografică extrem de complexă, în mod deosebit înclinată către geografia fizică. În timpul perioadei pariziene a primit invitația de a vizita România din partea colegului său de facultate, istoricul Pompiliu Eliade, prima vizită în România (1897) fiind momentul din care va deveni un mare iubitor al României. Încă de la începutul carierei sale și-a legat activitatea științifică de spațiul geografic locuit de români, descoperind un teren de studiu extrem de generos, atât din punct de vedere al peisajului natural cât și al contextului social-politic și istoric. Înzestrat cu un simț artistic deosebit și cu o pasiune spre a cunoaște, de Martonne a cercetat cu minuțiozitate areale diverse din România, dorind și reușind să aprofundeze esența proceselor și fenomenelor geografice, depășind nivelul descriptivist al prezentărilor regionale ale vremii. A dezvoltat laboratoare de cercetare geografică în universitățile în care a activat la începutul carierei universitare (Rennes, Lyon) și a introdus excursia ca metodă didactică de aplicare a noțiunilor teoretice dobândite de către studenți; ulterior, 201 Le livre – ressource de créativité et de vitalité a întreprins numeroase excursii geografice cu studenții universității din Cluj-Napoca.

And the O.A.T. Jewels of Bohemia: Czech Republic, Slovakia & Hungary itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: In my mind, there is nothing more quaint and picturesque than the rural villages that dot the countryside of the Czech Republic. To immerse myself in their traditions and everyday life, I explore rural communities like Slavonice, a small village nestled on the border with Austria. You’ll see what I mean when you experience A Day in the Life of a small, family-run farm here, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet the owners, lend a hand with the daily farm chores, and share a Home-Hosted Lunch with your hosts around the warmth of a bonfire. I believe the most moving stories you’ll hear are from the locals who live and work in the regions you travel to around the world, and that is what I found to be true in Prague when I spoke with Zdenek Vacek, a local teacher and lifelong Prague resident, about the Velvet Revolution. I was saddened to hear the reality of their turbulent past under the Czech Communist regime.

  • The Meaning of Boundaries. the Making of Romano-Hungarian Frontier After the First World War Giuseppe Motta*
    Semestrale di Studi e Ricerche di Geografia DOI: 10.13133/1125-5218.16348 XXXI, 2, 2019, ISSN 1125-5218 pp. 131-148 The Meaning of Boundaries. The Making of Romano-Hungarian Frontier after the First World War Giuseppe Motta* Key words: Transylvania, boundary commissions, World War I 1. Introduction. The European Settlement after World War I The concepts of «boundary» and «boundary-making» include an activity of delimitation and demarcation that is neither the result of geography nor of historical processes and has instead a definite political aspect. Boundaries, considered as imaginary lines dividing two pieces of land from one another, do not always coincide with frontiers, but have to be observed through an interdisciplinary approach, as processes, symbols and social institutions (Oye Cukwurah, 1967; Tambassi, 2018). At the same time, the meaning of borders changes and becomes mobile. Even in a unified Europe, borders are a part of everyday life for more people than even before. Today as well as in the past, borders are both territorial markings of the ambit of State sovereignty or other rule, and an object and a result of continuing social processes as well as the cause of specific social processes (Boesen, 2017, pp. 1-3). Political boundaries are normally defined by way of diplomatic agreements, often following a phase of conflict, for example the Napoleonic Wars or the First World War. After World War I, in particular, the collapse of the multina- tional Empires gave way to a complex re-definition of the European bound- aries, especially in Central-Eastern Europe, where many existing States were enlarged with new territories (Romania, Serbia, Greece), while others gained their independence according to the principle of national self-determination (Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia).

Abstract: In the last century nationalism as a spiritual element – according to the 1919 state- ment of the historian, archaeologist and philosopher Vasile Pârvan – was a blessed plant grown on Romanian soil during the ’48 revolution, the ’59 union under Prince Cuza, the ’77 war of independence and the preparation of such a national project as the Union with the Romanian Kingdom of several Romanian-speaking provinces dominated by two em- pires – the Austrian and the Russian – epitomized by Transylvania which came finally to the motherland on the 1st of December 1918, the same day when the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes was born. In the nationalism project, the Union Transylvania was a political priority. But we must add immediately that in the events of 1914–1916 in the neighbourhood of Romania a symbol of the national struggle became what Nicolae Iorga, in a famous lecture of 1915, called “the heroic and martyr Serbia”. Keywords: nationalism, Romania, Transylvania, Nicolae Iorga sed for the first time on the 4th of July 1892 by Maurice Barrès in his Uarticle “La querelle des nationalistes et des cosmopolites” in Le Figaro, the word “nationalism” was employed by the interwar and post 1945 dictatorship regimes of Central and Eastern Europe on several occasions in the twentieth century.
