Core project:
The Encyclopedia of Romantic Nationalism in Europe
SPIN’s various activities, including the facilitation of work done by its various affiliates, are meant to redound to the benefit of a core project which provides a gravitational centre to it all. In line with SPIN’s interest in charting the dynamics of international and intermedial exchange in cultural nationalism, an encyclopedic project is placed at SPIN’s core. Its working title is Encyclopedia of Romantic Nationalism in Europe – ERNiE for short.
More information is contained in
- – A working outline in PDF format, detailing areas of emphasis and a list of lemmata for the first two (thematic) sections;
- – An up-to-date list of names (last updated 11 January 2011) of the ca. 750 individuals to be included in the biobibliographical third section;
- – Background information in FAQ form.
The preparation will be in the hands of the SPIN coordinator, Joep Leerssen, and will in practice take the form of a members-only, password-protected WiKi in SPIN’s "Factory" webspace.
