Swedish and Finnish Historiographies of the Swedish Realm, c. 1520-1809

Shared Past, Different Interpretations?

Herausgeber: Kuha, Miia; Karonen, Petri

Beschreibung

In the early modern era, two Nordic countries that are neighbours today, Sweden and Finland, formed one realm. Yet, modern history writing has largely ignored this unity, instead developing analysis and discussion in close connection to nationalistic ideas, national politics, and processes of state-building.
