"Европа. Истории за империи" обединява философия и история в ново изследване върху властта и имперската история на Европа. Водещата идея е, че в основата на индивидуалния политически опит лежи метафизическият и това се разкрива в множество свидетелства в историческата литература. Вълканов следва тази идея в няколко ключови момента от развитието на Европа от XV до XX век. Властта променя всичко. Тя снема старите представи за морал и показва света в напълно нова светлина, която изправя всички пред избор за това кои са в действителност и какво искат да бъдат. Отговорът на този въпрос, превърнат в безкрайна редица ... |

What emerges from his acute observation of English rituals, habits and attitudes is his belief that these are the very things with which the English ... |
