The contributors to this collection answer the same questions: How and with help of what language (concepts) was an empire described by its contemporaries in various countries? Where is the empire situated when nobody sees it? What sense does it make to "objectively" reconstruct the structural relation of domination and submission or territorial expansion, if the same structures and policy could be found in any other state and in all epochs?
