O knihe
Heroes and Victims explores the cultural power of war memorials in20th-century Romania through two world wars and a succession of radical politicalchanges -- from attempts to create pluralist democratic political institutions afterWorld War I to shifts toward authoritarian rule in the 1930s, to militarydictatorships and Nazi occupation, to communist dictatorships, and finally topluralist democracies with populist tendencies. Examining the interplay of centrallyarticulated and locally developed commemorations, Maria Bucur's study engagesmonumental sites of memory, local funerary markers, rituals, and street names aswell as autobiographical writings, novels, oral narratives, and film. This bookreveals the ways in which a community's religious, ethnic, economic, regional, andgender traditions shaped local efforts at memorializing its war dead.
