It has since been highly influential in reshaping the analysis of Greek and European cultural dynamics.  In this expanded edition, a new introduction by the author and an epilogue by Sharon Macdonald document its importance for the emergence of serious anthropological interest in European culture and society and for current debates about Greece’s often contested place in the complex politics of the European Union.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“This is a useful and worthy addition to the all too meager scholarly literature on the subject.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• The American Historical Review\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“…a specially valuable contribution to the study of ethnographic theory…because it engenders discussion of the relationship of social science discourse to its subjects.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Anthropological Quarterly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“\u003c\/em\u003eOurs Once More \u003cem\u003eis pleasantly written, and it comes highly recommended to anyone generally interested in the nineteenth- century emergence of the Greek nation.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Folklore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“Herzfeld’s book, as he states himself, is essentially ‘an anthropology of anthropologists’; but, in my opinion, its importance is much greater than any study of a group of mere academics and intellectuals.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Journal of the Anthropological Society of Oxford (JASO)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cem\u003e“It is an important contribution to intellectual history in that it deals with the prevailing ideas at a given time, places them in wider context and shows their consequences in the formation of the Greek state.”\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e• Journal of Modern Greek Studies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tPreface to the First Edition\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Historicizing a History\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePrologue to the Greek Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAlki Kyriakidou-Nestoros\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/strong\u003e Past Glories, Present Politics\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/strong\u003e Extroversion and Introspection\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/strong\u003e National Character, National Consciousness\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/strong\u003e Attack and Reaction\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Creation of a Discipline\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6.\u003c\/strong\u003e Expansion and Collapse\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eConclusion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Conclusions and Emergences\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eEpilogue:\u003c\/strong\u003e Laying the Foundations of the Anthropology of Europe: An Ethnography of Culture Theory\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSharon Macdonald\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eAppendix A:\u003c\/strong\u003e Politis' Folklore Taxonomy\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eAppendix B:\u003c\/strong\u003e Basic Chronology\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tReferences\u003cbr\u003e \tIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042562113879,"sku":"9781789207224","price":31.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781789207224.jpg?v=1750954652","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/ours-once-more-folklore-ideology-and-the-making-of-modern-greece-9781789207224","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
