Introduction
The “Literature: people’s stories” cycle seeks to shed light on individual life stories which can go so far as to influence a nation.
How are the unique, personal stories recorded of people who experienced at first hand events that shook Europe to its core in the late 20th century? Why are they worth preserving, and who are their accounts aimed at? What impact do these testimonies have on the already battle-scarred social body that brought them forth? And what resonance might they ultimately have?
The “Literature: people’s stories” cycle seeks to shed light on individual life stories which, having acquired a mythic dimension by being set down on paper in book form, can go so far as to influence a nation’s cultural, social and even political life.
