註釋This work presents a new aspect of the emergence of the Eastern Question - the displacement of the Ottoman Empire from Southeastern Europe - seen from the perspective of the small, but strategically important city-state of Dubrovnik, placed precariously between the Habsburg and Turkish empires. Between the Double Eagle and the Crescent offers an excellent example of the ability of small states in the Balkans to engage and use larger empires to preserve their independence and freedom to manoeuvre, which set a precedent for the patron-client relationships between the great powers of Europe and the Balkan states in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
