This volume aims to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of political, economic and cultural modernisation in the South Slavic countries as an ambivalent process that was open-ended and, above all, not solely oriented towards the societies of Western Europe. The textual and visual sources it presents tell unexpected stories about the circulation of ideas and goods as well as the cross-border mobility of people in this region during the long 19th century. In doing so, it opens up a view of ‘alternative modernities’ and shows the special significance of the exchanges with the Ottoman and Russian Empires.
