Sažetak
This volume is great and inspirational reading for anyone interested in the history of the Balkans. It offers a good and critical overview of the present-day historiography on the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans, and introduces new methodological patterns in the field. Nonetheless, I believe that the collection would have been even stronger if the editor had included more of the papers from the above-mentioned Vienna conference, especially those of Konstantinos Giakoumis and Fodor Pal. The volume would also have been enhanced by including some of the work and findings of certain Italian scholars, like Maria Pia Pedani, which would have complemented the contribution from Ovidiu Cristea.
