What is Europe? How did this continent, which actually is not a continent geographically, develop? What keeps Europe with its many nations and peoples together? Is there the "typical European"? How did Europe shape our thinking, how did Europe enrich the world – and where did Europe plunge the world into disaster? Questions that Australian-born Sir Christopher Clark will engage in during his journey through the culture and history of Europe. Like no one else the renowned historian can take a curious and entertaining look at our continent "from outside" and in his personal presentations at Europe’s most beautiful and fateful places sort out our confusingly diverse history.
