The book deals with Eastern Europe not as a geographical space,
but as a unit separated from Western Europe by the ancient Roman
limes. It is a methodological introduction based on reflection rather
than information and aiming at clarifying fundamental problems of
historical method rather than being an encyclopaedic thematic handbook
In fact, it is first of all a « study of method ». There
are no mere notions : data always result from an investigation process.
The issues discussed include: historiography, apocrypha and heresy
– Eastern Europe and nomadic empires – problems of literary
method in Eastern Europe.
