Om bogen

Århundrede- og årtusindskifter har en særlig, næsten magisk, tiltrækning på os, men den betydning, man har tillagt disse "overgange" har ikke altid været den samme. I Fins de Siècle beskæftiger forfatterne sig med disse "betydninger", og også med diskussionen om, præcis hvornår skiftet sker.
