Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the first bombs first fell on her hometown of Berlin, the author was only five-years-old. She describes in detail what it was like as a child of very modest means to live in Hitlers Germany during the War. Her 37 year old father was drafted and became a Russian prisoner. Her mother fled with her two children to the village of Straupitz in 1943. Overrun by the Russians, they barely managed to return to West Berlin in November 1946. There they faced three years of terrible winters, starvation and the Berlin Blockade. This is an account of war through the eyes of a little girl and the equally difficult years following. The account ends in 1954 when the author immigrates to the United States.

Download or read book War Memory and East Asian Conflicts 1930 1945 written by Eveline Buchheim and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how narratives, exhibitions, media representations, and cultural heritage sites that communicate memories of conflicts in East Asia between 1930 and 1945 spread, interact, and are re-packaged for post-war audiences across national divisions. The contributors examine individual case studies of grassroots engagement with war memory, and collectively demonstrate the necessity of remaining aware of the researcher as participating in another kind of engagement with war memory. Contributions showcase a number of ways of doing research on war memory, alongside case studies from diverse regions of the world. Taken together, they bring a fresh perspective to scholarship on war memory, which has tended to focus on space, text, exhibition, or personal narrative, rather than bringing these elements into dialogue with one another.
