Overview

The chronological, thematic and methodological differentiation of historiography, which has also been observed in Silesia since the Late Enlightenment, is the focus of the regional studies gathered here.

The Austro-Prussian antagonism, but also the country's proximity to the Slavic linguistic and cultural area, reinforced the emergence of competing historical images, especially in Silesia.
