Contains the latest research on the history of a complex and fascinating region of EuropeAvailable in English for the first timeExpanded and updated editionPublished in anticipation of Timisoara's designation as European Capital of Culture for 2021The Banat is a uniquely fascinating example of a European cross-border region, incorporating parts of western Romania, northeastern Serbia and a small area of southeastern Hungary. The team of historians, headed by Professor Victor Neumann of the West University in Timisoara, who have contributed to this volume are drawn from across the three modern nations of the region. They analyze the history and culture of the Banat from the earliest times, focusing on the 300 years since it was captured from the Ottoman Turks by Prince Eugene of Savoy. Today this ethnically diverse region has a distinct character of its own, and its Romanian seat, the city of Timisoara, exudes a character quite different from Transylvania and the rest of Romania. This new English edition of the book (originally published in Romanian in 2016 under the title Istoria Banatului) has been expanded and is published to support Timisoara's designation as European Capital of Culture in 2021.

Neuware -Das Temescher Banat: Diese multiethnische und multikonfessionelle Region im geopolitischen Spannungsfeld des Heiligen Römischen Reichs, des Habsburgerreichs, des Osmanischen und des Russländischen Reichs verteilt sich heute auf Rumänien, Serbien und Ungarn. Innerhalb der vergangenen 400 Jahre haben sich in diesem Teil Südosteuropas die Machtverhältnisse und die politischen Grenzen mehrfach verschoben - zuletzt maßgebend nach der territorialen Aufteilung nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg. Die vorliegende Darstellung schildert die Auswirkungen der veränderten Zugehörigkeiten auf die Bewohner des Banats bis in die jüngste Vergangenheit. Fundiert und gut lesbar stellt Irina Marin mit diesem Band die Geschichte dieser Gegend einem breiten Publikum vor. Die Übersetzung durch das Institut für deutsche Kultur und Geschichte Südosteuropas e.V. (IKGS) an der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München macht diese zunächst auf Englisch erschienene Monografie nun auch einem deutsch sprachigen Lesepublikum zugänglich. 248 pp. Deutsch

Paperback. A stunning collection from Sydney poet, human rights activist, community organiser, and refugee campaigner Sara M Saleh.With her first full-length poetry collection, Sara M Saleh introduces us to the polychromatic lives of girls and women as they come into being amidst war, colonial and patriarchal violence, and exile and migration. This searing work interrogates and represents the complexity of Arab-Australian Muslim women's identities as they negotiate an irresistible world full of music and family, grit and grief, love and loss.Saleh's poetry is not only an inherently political act, but a deeply personal one, charged with multilayered conversations and meditations amongst three generations of women in Sara's family. Her poems dazzle with an incantatory force of spirit, survival and selfhood, proving without a doubt that Saleh is one of this country's most compelling, contemporary poets.

During September of 2004, I found my mother's fifty-year-old manuscript, which had been sleeping in the attic for fifteen years, had never been read. The manuscript brought about a new focus on old pictures I've seen since her death in 1966. The story is autobiographical and about love - not just romantic love, but true soulmates, in the sense of Tom Sawyer and Becky Thatcher.

Castle Banat is home to vampire clans of the world and hosts a gathering which took 300 years to plan. There is a vicious murder and so begins a story of fantastical horrors, passionate games and the sexual forces of the vampire! This is a page turner!

Over three hundred years, the story of the family of Stefan Fritz begins its trek with a land grant from Maria Theresa for Germans to settle in the Banat area of Hungary. Through joys and hardships the family grows and members of the family settle in Vienna and Berlin. The family witnesses the revolutions in 1848, the Great War, and World War II. As musicians they meet Haydn, Beethoven, and Schubert. During The Great War one member is an officer on the Italian Front and another an enlisted soldier on the Western Front. In World War II members of the family enlist and are conscripted in an SS Division under Heinrich Himmler. After the war most of the family is destroyed by the genocide of ethnic German in Central Europe by the Russians and Tito. One member survives and escapes to Berlin.

This is an in-depth study of the ethnic German minority in the Serbian Banat (Southeast Europe) and its experiences under German occupation in World War II. Mirna Zakić argues that the Banat Germans exercised great agency within the constraints imposed on them by Nazi ideology, with its expectations that ethnic Germans would collaborate with the invading Nazis. The book examines the incentives that the Nazis offered to collaboration and social dynamics within the Banat German community - between their Nazified leadership and the rank and file - as well as the various and ever-more damning forms collaboration took. The Banat Germans provided administrative and economic aid to the Nazi war effort, and took part in Nazi military operations in Yugoslav lands, the Holocaust and Aryanization. They ruled the Banat on the Nazis' behalf between 1941 and 1944, yet their wartime choices led ultimately to their disenfranchisement and persecution following the Nazis' defeat.
