Abstract
Our contributors hailed from five countries, lived (from the birth of Herder in 1744 to the death of Stalin in 1953) over a span of two centuries, and studied the subjct of nationhood in a wide variety of contexts and with individually distinct objectives in mind. Small wonder, therefore, that we should notice differences in their treatments and parities that distinguish our writers' handling of the subject, it will be convenient to highlight the reasons in their backgrounds and purposes for expecting these differences.
