Through a discussion of fascinating materials, reflecting contemporary beliefs and ideas, this innovative study reveals how notions of citizenship were determined and explores the long process through which ideas and beliefs shaped both societies and individual identities.\n\n\nReview\n\n\n\n\n'This is an unusually interesting and important book, which illuminates both our understanding of how modern nations have been built, and how women have tried to find new roles for themselves. Its value goes far beyond its specific Greek subject; it is a book for all nations and for men as well as women. It is the fruit of wide reading as well as a great deal of research into largely forgotten sources and it leaves the reader with a sense of wonder at the complexity of human aspirations and emotions.'- Theodore Zeldin, President of the Oxford Muse Foundation\n\n\n'Tzanaki's meticulous research and careful contextualization of her case in the wider European scholarship on gender, nationalism and the public sphere make this an exemplary study. This is a ground-breaking piece of research for South-East European history and will be read with profit much more widely.'\n\n  - Wendy Bracewell, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\nBook Description\n\n\nThis book brings new light on the complex history of women's identity during a critical era of nation-state formation\n\n\nAbout the Author\n\n\nDEMETRA TZANAKI studied political studies and Balkan history at the University of Athens, Greece, the University of London, UK and the University of Oxford, UK.
