description | The article presents an analysis of interviews with displaced and resettled German and Polish
women. These interviews were made by two feminist NGOs and published on DVD recordings.
These sources highlight a gap in historical research on displacement and resettlement, as women
and children’s experiences were overlooked. The narrated memories of women who were children
at the time of the Second World War reveal a fragmented yet common “biography” of displacement
and resettlement. In this “biography”, experiences such as the loss of home, hunger, fear,
and rejection by the inhabitants of the destination locations have a transnational character. The
relevance of surviving and coping with everyday life on the road to uncertainty for biographical
research becomes evident here while the concept of a fragmented “biography” of displacement
and resettlement is framed in terms of a “biography” of placelessness (Ortlosigkeit). |
