Modellati lungo i secoli, i paesaggi rurali europei subiscono oggi la pressione, senza precedenti, del nuovo sviluppo, delle pratiche agricole, dall'urbanizzazione e dall'ampliamento dell'Unione Europea. Questo volume presenta i risultati dell'Eucaland Project, un programma multidisciplinare di ricerca che affronta tali problematiche. Attraverso studi, condotti in tredici paesi, sulla descrizione del paesaggio, sulla storia, sulla classificazione, sulle abitudini e sulla pianificazione territoriale, si riflette su come i paesaggi rurali europei esprimano una comune eredità culturale e si propone come trasmettere tale eredità alle future generazioni.

What role can culture have in creating, developing and disseminating the values which, over the centuries, have led to the idea of Europe as a common home? Here culture is understood as a primarily humanist culture, meaning literature, art, theater, music, and legal, historiographical and economic culture. Culture is a construction and sedimentation of centuries, a work in progress in continuous formation, the essential raison d’être for the goal of European integration for the first time in history resting not on an imperialistic but a democratic basis. What presence and above all what effectiveness can art and culture have in rising our awareness of and pride in belonging to a centuries-old construction, a melting pot that has mingled many traditions and been fostered by them? The Conference, intending to bring a strictly cultural contribution to reflection on these issues, after a foundational layer, centered on juridical, historical, economic and philosophical culture, focused on theatrical culture. Why? Because the theater, a multi-millennial expressive form, is the most open and chorally participatory of the arts; because, in its valence as emotion and political reflection physically played out in the presence of an audience, it can effectively contribute to shorten the distance of the population from the theme. Integration is also – and perhaps above all – a question of “knowing” and “understanding”.

An alternative account of the EU as a racialised project\n\nThe European Union is often seen as a cosmopolitan rejection of violent nationalism. Yet the idea of Europe has a long, problematic history—in medieval times, it was synonymous with Christianity; in the modern era, it became associated with ‘whiteness’.\n\nEurowhiteness exposes the EU as a vehicle for imperial amnesia. Narratives of European integration emphasise the lessons of war and the Holocaust, but not the lessons of colonial history. The EU is about power as much as peace—and civic ideas of Europe are being displaced by ethnic and cultural ones.\n\nSince the 2015 refugee crisis, whiteness has become even more central to European identity—a troubling new turn in Europe’s long civilisational project. It is time to confront the relationship between ideas of Europe and ideas of race.

An enticing history of food and drink in Western art and culture\n\nEating and drinking can be aesthetic experiences as well as sensory ones. The Hungry Eye takes readers from antiquity to the Renaissance to explore the central role of food and drink in literature, art, philosophy, religion, and statecraft.\n\nIn this beautifully illustrated book, Leonard Barkan provides an illuminating meditation on how culture finds expression in what we eat and drink. Plato's Symposium is a timeless philosophical text, one that also describes a drinking party. Salome performed her dance at a banquet where the head of John the Baptist was presented on a platter. Barkan looks at ancient mosaics, Dutch still life, and Venetian Last Suppers. He describes how ancient Rome was a paradise of culinary obsessives, and explains what it meant for the Israelites to dine on manna. He discusses the surprising relationship between Renaissance perspective and dinner parties, and sheds new light on the moment when the risen Christ appears to his disciples hungry for a piece of broiled fish. Readers will browse the pages of the Deipnosophistae-an ancient Greek work in sixteen volumes about a single meal, complete with menus-and gain epicurean insights into such figures as Rabelais and Shakespeare, Leonardo and Vermeer.\n\nA book for anyone who relishes the pleasures of the table, The Hungry Eye is an erudite and uniquely personal look at all the glorious ways that food and drink have transfigured Western arts and high culture.

This book offers the first systematic, comparative analysis of military education and training in Europe within the context of the post-Cold War security environment. \n\nBased on an analysis of military education institutions in the UK, Germany, Finland, Romania and the Baltic States, this book demonstrates that the convergence of European military cultures since the end of the Cold War is linked to changes in military education. The process of convergence originates, at least in part, from the full or partial adoption of a new concept by post-commissioning professional military education institutions: the National Defence University. Officers are now educated alongside civilians and public servants, wherein they enjoy a socialization experience that is markedly different from that of previous generations of European officers, and is increasingly similar across national borders. In addition, this book argues that with the control over the curricula and graduation criteria increasingly set by civilian higher education authorities, the European armed forces, while continuing to exist, and hold significant (although declining) capabilities, stand to lose their status as a profession in the traditional sense.\n\nThis book will be of much interest to students of military, European security policy, European politics, and IR in general.

In contemporary society it would seem self-evident that people allow the market to determine the values of products and services. For everything from a loaf of bread to a work of art to a simple haircut, value is expressed in monetary terms and seen as determined primarily by the 'objective' interplay between supply and demand. Yet this 'price-mechanism' is itself embedded in conventions and frames of reference which differed according to time, place and product type. Moreover, the dominance of the conventions of utility maximising and calculative homo economicus is a relatively new phenomenon, and one which directly correlates to the steady advent of capitalism in early modern Europe. This volume brings together scholars with expertise in a variety of related fields, including economic history, the history of consumption and material culture, art history, and the history of collecting, to explore changing concepts of value from the early modern period to the nineteenth century and present a new view on the advent of modern economic practices. Jointly, they fundamentally challenge traditional historical narratives about the rise of our contemporary market economy and consumer society.

By examining the myriad myths surrounding Central European universities, Czech historians Lukas Fasora and Jiri Hanus take a diachronic approach to investigating the issues facing higher learning in the region. Using careful historical research, the authors point out vast discontinuities, comparing how the philosophy of education from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century has changed and how this evolution relates to the current administrative goals of higher education. As they confront the history and myths of university education, the authors do not shy away from exploring difficult questions, such as whether political and economic influences have completely transformed the goals and structure of today's universities in Central Europe. Though focused on university systems in a specific geographic region, the findings have wide-ranging implications for higher education the world over.

Several of the most prolific and influential conspiracy theories have originated in Eastern Europe. The far reaching influence of conspiracy narratives can be observed in recent developments in Poland or with regard to the wars waged in Eastern Ukraine and in former Yugoslavia. This volume analyses the history behind this widespread phenomenon as well the role it has played in Eastern European cultures and literature both past and present.

Service learning brings together students, academics and the community whereby all become teaching resources, problem solvers and partners. In addition to enhancing academic and real-world learning, the overall purpose of service learning is to instil in students a sense of civic engagement and responsibility and work towards positive social change within society.\n\nEmbedding Service Learning in European Higher Education promotes service learning as a pedagogical approach that develops civic engagement within higher education. It both describes and assesses the most recent developments and contextual positioning of service learning in European higher education and considers if and how the pedagogy is responding to European Union policy and the strategy of higher education institutions and towards engagement with broader societal issues. \n\nWith case studies from 12 universities across Europe, this book draws on existing practice, shares knowledge and develops best practice to provide conceptual and practical tools for teaching, researching and practising service learning. This book:\n\n\n\n \n\n \nexposes service learning as a key approach in terms of embedding a culture of political and civic literacy within higher education; \n \n\n \nconsiders service learning in Europe, an area of growing research in service learning practice;\n \n\n \nexplores the issue of university social responsibility;\n \n\n \npresents chapters from leaders in the service learning movement at a national and international level.\n\nPractical and engaging, Embedding Service Learning in European Higher Education is a fascinating read for anyone working in service learning as well as those working at universities with an interest in social and civic engagement and institutional reform.
