In english. Soft cover, 24 cm, 384 pp. One and a half century after its appearance, the Macedonian question still causes nationalistic reactions in Greece and the neighbouring countries. In this book the wider region of Macedonia is examined in all geographic variants and time periods. The distinguishable nation groups include ancient Macedonians, Roman, Greeks, Slavs, Helleno-Slavo-Vlachofonous, Christians of Ottoman period, but also Greek and Slavomacedonians of the modern era. The central subject is the national identities in Macedonia today. CONTENTS: Evangelos Livieratos, "On the Cartographic Placement of the Toponym "Macedonia" - M. B.
