Lisa Pope Fischer: Gender and Memory in Hungary, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book shows how unique life stories about major turning points can reveal a collective story of how constructed memories provide an understanding of present-day society. The author follows elderly Hungarian women's unofficial histories about living through World War II as well as the socialist and post-socialist eras to show adaptation to change, insights into economic strain, generational divisions, issues related to the aging process, and understandings of nation and identity.
