This volume explores the different mechanisms and forms of
expression used by women to come to terms with the past, focusing
on the variety and complexity of women's narratives of displacement
within the context of Central and Eastern Europe. The first part
addresses the quest for personal (post)memory from the perspective
of the second and third generations. The touching collaboration
established in reconstructing individual and family (post)memories
offers invaluable insights into the effects of displacement, coping
mechanisms, and resilience. Adopting the idea that the text itself
becomes a site of (post)memory, the second part of the volume
brings into discussion different sites and develops further this
topic in relation to the creative process and visual text. The last
part questions the past in relation to trauma and identity
displacement in the countries where abusive regimes destroyed
social bonds and had a lasting impact on the people lives.
