Description
Germany: Memories of a Nation by Neil MacGregor
This book offers a unique perspective on Germany's history and identity. For over 140 years, Germany has been a dominant force in continental Europe, yet its history is marked by instability and fragmentation.
MacGregor explores how the country's complex past continues to shape its present, examining objects, ideas, people, and places that still resonate with Germans today, from porcelain and Bauhaus design to the German sausage and the gates of Buchenwald. A thought-provoking and insightful look at a nation's collective imagination.
