The Repression and Resistance. Women Remembering their Daily Life in Romanian Communist Prisons
Journal Title: Martor. The Museum of the Romanian Peasant Anthropology Review - Year 2012, Vol 17, Issue 17
Abstract
The everyday life in a communist prison was characterized by terror, repression, harsh living conditions. Nevertheless, women, former political detainees, struggled to overcome all the difficulties in order to survive and to tell their story. This is the story of their faith in their victory over unfortunate and unpredictable historical events.
