The contributors of this volume accompanied women and objects in their travels across Modern Europe and offered thorough and diverse analyses connecting the circulation of people with the circulation of ideas.      Making use of archive materials, visual sources and museum collections, the authors point out the richness of the region and the role of women in promoting new ideas of modernity. This will help the public to better know and understand the importance of women's sociability in building new nations and constructing new identities in South-Eastern Europe and beyond.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"There is a great deal of variety among these contributions in terms of the types of sources they choose (paintings, memoirs, church cadasters, personal archives, clothing, etc.) and the specific scholarship they build upon. The most impressive overall achievement of the volume is to have brought to light archival troves in so many places and languages, reminding us about both the difficulty of doing archival comparative work on the Balkans and the unexplored richness of these sources.\" - Maria Bucur, Indiana University, UK, in: European History Quarterly 48(2)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements List of Illustrations Notes on Contributors  Introduction  Constanţa Vintilă-Ghiţulescu  1 Translating Imperial Practices, Knowledge, and Taste Across the Mediterranean.
