Izabella Ag疵di aims to correct that by concentrating on their life stories and their connections to general histories. She investigates how Hungarian-speaking, ordinary women in rural contexts born in the 1920s and 1930s remember and talk about the twentieth century they have experienced, and how, through their stories, they articulate historical change and construct themselves as historical subjects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn her analysis, Izabella Ag疵di traces the interactions between micro- and macro- narratives as well as the specific tools women of this generation appropriate to talk about personal memories of their often traumatic past. From these stories, a particular mnemonic community emerges, one that speaks from a highly precarious position 'on the verge of history'. It is up to future generations whether these women's experiences will be remembered or forgotten.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Izabella Agardi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3838216024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783838216027\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ibidem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 550\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.19h x 5.75w x 1.18d","brand":"Izabella Agardi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990737977599,"sku":"9783838216027","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1b694a3c-2799-4ea8-b2c2-73c3d0f44e73.jpg?v=1683306388","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-the-verge-of-history-9783838216027","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
