European Nationalism
Anthony Marx, author of Faith In Nation, examines the origins of European nationalism. He argues it traces back earlier than most academics assume. Carey Winfrey, editor-in-chief of Smithsonian Magazine, joins journalist Andrew Lawler, to discuss the loss of Iraqi art and archaeological treasures during the war. Plus, Subhankar Banerjee takes us on a photographic journey into the arctic Seasons of Life and Land. And Jane Avrich shares her collection of short stories, The Winter Without Milk.
