Kindheit in den Volkserzählungen der Zipser aus der Maramuresch und der Südbukowina: Erinnerungen einer vom Schicksal geprägten Generation
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Childhood as a theme has often been addressed in various works, but in this case, it is outlined through the stories handed down from generation to generation by the Zipser Saxons from Maramuresh and Southbukovina, who have had a similar path and development over the years. Folk tales are a source of cultural identity and collective memory, especially for ethnic minorities such as the Zipser Saxons, often offering deep insights into the history, traditions and values of their community. This raises the question of how the childhood memories of a generation shaped by destiny are conveyed through the stories.
