    Abstract: The European Union's motto 'United in Diversity' contrasts with the cultural standardization entailed in the formation of nation-states and the forging of political identities in Europe. So what does being 'united in diversity' mean? Focusing on language politics and policies, this book offers a thorough assessment of the implications of cultural and linguistic diversity for the process of constructing a European polity. It sheds light on some of the most pressing problems associated with contemporary identity politics. It is often claimed that the recurrent celebration of diversity in Europe's programmatic declarations has an effective political impact. Kraus offers a critical analysis of how the EU has responded to the normative challenge of creating an institutional frame for integration which allows cultural differences to be transcended without ignoring them.

    Abstract: Introduction. The special roles of Scotland and Germany -- Function to origin : national identity and national genius emerge, c. 1700-1780. High-middle-low as function : genre and style into the eighteenth century. The quest for origins begins. Scotland's profile comes forward on the international stage : the "Scotch" songs and tunes. David Rizzio versus James I : myths for their respective times -- From pastoral to picturesque: nature, art, and genre in the later eighteenth century. Nature as genre : the pastoral and the Scottish before 1760. Nature versus civilization : universalism and progress. Nature as the other : the anthropologizing of music. Nature and "the folk" : the "ancient and Oriental" come to Europe through Scotland. Nature in music : Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Nature and the picturesque : the noble savage in the Highland landscape -- Genius versus art in the creative process : "national" and "cultivated" music as categories, 1760-1800. The minstrels and bards of old. James Beattie and a new myth of origin : "national music" and the "people". Revolution : Beattie's influence. "National" versus "cultivated" music as predecessors to "folk" and "art" music. Herder -- The invention of folk modality, 1775-1840. Before Burney. An ancient and Oriental modality. Today Scotland, tomorrow the world. Credibility and dignity : folk-modal study comes of age. The insider as outsider. The legacy : folk modality since 1850 -- "Folk" and "tradition" : authenticity as musical idiom from the late eighteenth century onward. Establishing tradition as part of oral culture. Theories of origin and theories of transmission in dissonance. From fixed texts to variant "sets" : the conception of modern folk "works". Tradition as social reaction : musical implications of the "folk" ideology. Authenticity as idiom. Werktreue and tradition : printed forms of the national music "work". A final myth of origin for traditional music : the benefits of obscurity -- Organic "art music" and individual original genius : aestheticizing the folk collective. Herder and German idealism : conceiving a new organic, synthetic "art". Creative issues in aestheticizing the folk. A tale of two receptions, Part 1 : the problem of originality. A tale of two receptions, Part 2 : composing "as the folk" -- Local nation and universal folk : the legacy of geography in musical categories. Ubiquitous categories : the geographical spread of folk and art music. Universalism as idiom : from "national music" to "national art music". Between center and periphery : "northern" music. Some approaches to "national music" from the German center -- Folk and art musics in the modern Western world. A final ripple : folk music and art music encounter popular music. Our current terminology. Implications for viewing the eighteenth century and before. Implications for viewing the nineteenth century. Implications for viewing the twentieth century, and for thinking about music in today's world.
    Abstract: We tend to take for granted the labels we put to different forms of music. This study considers the origins and implications of the way in which we categorize music today. Whereas earlier ways of classifying music were based on its different functions, for the past two hundred years we have been obsessed with creativity and musical origins, and classify music along these lines. Matthew Gelbart argues that folk music and art music became meaningful concepts only in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and only in relation to each other

    Abstract: This 2007 book analyzes how, why, and when pre-modern Europeans documented their marriages - through property deeds, marital settlements, dotal charters, church court depositions, wedding liturgies, and other indicia of marital consent. The authors consider both the function of documentation in the process of marrying and what the surviving documents say about pre-modern marriage and how people in the day understood it. Drawing on archival evidence from classical Rome, medieval France, England, Iceland, and Ireland, and Renaissance Florence, Douai, and Geneva, the volume provides a rich interdisciplinary analysis of the range of marital customs, laws, and practices in Western Christendom. The chapters include freshly translated specimen documents that bring the reader closer to the actual practice of marrying than the normative literature of pre-modern theology and canon law.

    Abstract: Events over recent years have increased the global interest in Islam. This volume seeks to combat generalisations about the Muslim presence in Europe by illuminating its diversity across Europe and offering a more realistic, highly differentiated picture. It contends with the monist concept of identity that suggests Islam is the shared and main definition of Muslims living in Europe. The contributors also explore the influence of the European Union on the Muslim communities within its borders, and examine how the EU is in turn affected by the Muslim presence in Europe. This book comes at a critical moment in the evolution of the place of Islam within Europe and will appeal to scholars, students and practitioners in the fields of European studies, politics and policies of the European Union, sociology, sociology of religion, and international relations. It also addresses the wider framework of uncertainties and unease about religion in Europe.
