Riassunto

Migrating Memories charts the transnational story of German speakers from Romania during a turbulent century in modern European history. From uneasy supporters of their home country, to enthusiastic Nazis, tepid Communists, and conciliatory Europeans, Romanian Germans have been at the centre of major European events since 1918.
