Résumé
Many of the traditions which we think of as ancient in their origins were, in fact, invented comparatively recently. This book explores examples of this process of invention, including the creation of Welsh and Scottish "national culture" ; the elaboration of British royal rituals in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries ; the origins of imperial rituals in British India and Africa ; and the attempts by radical movements to develop counter-traditions of their own.
This wide-ranging book addresses the complex interaction of past and present in a fascinating study of ritual and symbolism.
