Presents a comprehensive history of the Czech people that is a remarkably original history of modern Europe. This book describes how Bohemia's ambiguities and contradictions are those of Europe itself, and it considers the ironies of viewing Europe, the West, and modernity from the vantage point of a country that has been too often ignored.
