They were organized and conceived of as attributes of the nation states. Nonetheless, these national cultures crossed borders with an unprecedented intensity even before globalization transformed the very concept of culture. During that long period, European cultures have imported and exported products, techniques, values, and ideas, relying on invisible but efficient international networks. The central agents of these networks are considered mediators: translators, publishers, critics, artists, art dealers and collectors, composers. These agents were not only the true architects of intercultural transfer, they also largely contributed to the shaping of a common canon and of aesthetic values that became part of the history of national cultures. Cultural Mediation in Europe, 1800-1950 analyses the strategic transfer roles of cultural mediators active in large parts of Western Europe in domains as varied as literature, music, painting, or art design.ContributorsAmelie Auzoux (Universite Paris IV-Sorbonne), Christophe Charle (Universite Paris I-Pantheon-Sorbonne), Kate Kangaslahti (KU Leuven), Vesa Kurkela (University of the Arts, Helsinki), Anne O'Connor (University of Galway), Saijaleena Rantanen (University of the Arts, Helsinki), Agnes Anna Sebestyen (Archaeolingua Publishing House), Inmaculada Seron Ordonez (University of Malaga), Renske Suijver (Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam), Tom Toremans (KU Leuven), Dirk Weissmann (Universite Paris-Est Creteil)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEin Resümee des Bd. fällt schwer; sein Verdienst liegt vor allem in dem Facettenreichtum, mit dem er das Forschungsfeld der kulturellen Vermittlung\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eschlaglichtartig auslotet.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGerhard Kuck, Quellen und Forschungen aus italienischen Archiven und Bibliotheken, Volume 100 Issue 1, https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1515\/qufiab-2020-0036\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003cbr\u003eReine Meylaerts, Lieven D’hulst \u0026amp; Tom Verschaffel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI.
