Summary/Abstract: The present volume constitutes one of the scholarly outputs of the EU-funded Marie Curie project “Politics of Memory and Memory Cultures of the Russian-Ottoman War 1877/1878: From Divergence to Dialogue” (MEMORYROW). This project started working on 1 February 2012 and will last until the end of January 2016. The project’s consortium consists of eight scientific institutions from eight countries, which are historically more or less strongly related to the events of this epoch-making war. The project’s leadership rests on the Centre for Southeast European History and Anthropology at University of Graz. However, the initiative came from the Balkanistic Seminar at Southwest University of Blagoevgrad. The other partner institutions are the Institute of National History “Ss Cyril and Methodius in Skopje”, the Department of Modern and Contemporary History, Folklore and Social Anthropology at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, the Department of History at the Istanbul based Bilgi University, the Shota Rustaveli University of Batumi, the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia in Yerevan and the North-Caucasus Federal University of Stavropol'.
