Following the seminal studies by Hobsbawm and Ranger and Benedict Anderson on the role of narratives of the past in constructing (national) identities, and thanks the always more widespread practice of reception studies, the attention for cultural memory and lieux de m{\´e}moire, and following, many publications have investigated the role of nearer and further time layers in defining and determining structures of identity and senses of belonging across the world. Didactics of history has also contributed a great deal to this field of studies, also thanks to the always more refined methodologies of school book analysis. Classical Antiquity has obviously not been neglected, and multiple studies have been dedicated to its role in the development and reinforcement of modern identities. Yet, not only some areas of the world have remained less considered than others, but most attention has been dedicated to national identities, nationalistic discourses, and their activation through historical narratives. This special issues of thersites wants to contribute further to research on the role of Classical Antiquity within modern identities, asking scholars to focus especially on areas that have been less strongly represented in scholarship until now.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Klein2023, author = {Klein, Jonas}, title = {Der Prophet des Staatsgedankens}, series = {Schriftenreihe der Historischen Kommission bei der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften}, volume = {111}, journal = {Schriftenreihe der Historischen Kommission bei der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften}, publisher = {Vandenhoeck \& Ruprecht}, address = {G{\"o}ttingen}, isbn = {978-3-525-30238-5}, issn = {0568-4323}, pages = {471}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Kaum eine Studie zum Deutschen Kaiserreich kommt ohne einen Verweis auf die »Preußischen Jahrb{\"u}cher« als einflussreicher Stimme der Zeit aus, deren Herausgeber Hans Delbr{\"u}ck keine Kontroverse scheute.
