Book Details
First Sentence
"Nations, it has recently become commonplace to observe, are in part imaged communities, depending for their credibility and identity both on the legitimacy of government and the apparatus of the state, and on invented traditions, manufactured myths, and shared perceptions of the social order that are never more than crude categories and oversimplified stereotypes."
