Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. During the Cold War, stories of espionage became popular on both sides of the Iron Curtain, capturing the imagination of readers and filmgoers alike as secret police quietly engaged in surveillance under the shroud of impenetrable secrecy. And curiously, in the postCold War period there are no signs of this enthusiasm diminishing. The opening of secret police archives in many Eastern European countries has provided the opportunity to excavate and narrate for the first time forgotten spy stories. Cold War Spy Stories from Eastern Europe brings together a wide range of accounts compiled from the East German Stasi, the Romanian Securitate, and the Ukrainian KGB files. The stories are a complex amalgam of fact and fiction, history and imagination, past and present. These stories of collusion and complicity, betrayal and treason, right and wrong, and good and evil cast surprising new light on the question of Cold War certainties and divides.

paperback. Condition: Neu. Deschis in 1983 si activ mult dupa emigrarea ei in Republica Federala Germania in 1987, dosarul de supraveghere al Hertei Muller dezvaluie informatii impresionante despre tacticile, metodele si tehnologiile folosite de Securitate. Volumul de fata ofera o analiza aprofundata a acestui dosar si a altora corelate, in care sursele fie o spionau pe Herta Muller, fie ii erau prieteni, asadar supuse automat supravegherii. Aria acoperita de autoare este vasta: de la felul in care textele de inceput ale Hertei Muller au atras atentia Securitatii pana la examinarea comparativa a diferentelor dintre editiile romanesti si cele vest-germane ale povestirilor din Niederungen, de la povestile de dosar ale celor care au spionat-o pana la rolul traducerii ori al traducerii gresite in transcrierile Securitatii si multe altele. Desecretizate la mai bine de doua decenii dupa 1989, aceste dosare pun in lumina fatete necunoscute ale temutei institutii comuniste pe care Valentina Glajar le recupereaza, oferindu-i cititorului o forma de rescriere a vietii intr-un mod reparator. Materialul dintr-un dosar al Securitatii, interpretat cu sensibilitate, asa cum este aici, ne ofera o intelegere unica a supravegherii, acest instrument de baza al opresiunii in societatile comuniste. - Katherine Verdery, Slavic Review (2024) Volumul de fata este atat o relatare captivanta despre supraveghere, cat si un model de realizare a unei analize accesibile si patrunzatoare pe baza materialelor din arhivele politiei secrete. Glajar transforma un vast dosar de consemnari scrise obscur - fara sa se multumeasca sa le ia ca atare - intr-o lectura usor de inteles si interesanta pentru cititor, oferind astfel un studiu care va atrage atentia dincolo de comunitatea academica interesata de Muller. - Jenny Watson, Oxford German Studies (2024) Aceasta carte are toate caracteristicile unui thriller sau ale unui roman politist. Citind-o, ai impresia ca te afli in mijlocul unui film despre politia secreta, precum Vietile altora (2006) al lui Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck. Dar cartea lui Glajar se bazeaza pe o realitate mult prea amara. Citind aceasta carte, cu analiza si descrierea detaliata a diverselor tipuri de supraveghere, esti pus uneori intr-o pozitie ce seamana stanjenitor de mult cu cea a unui agent al politiei secrete. - Stephen Brockmann, Monatshefte (2024) ISBN 9786303441375 Der Spezialist für Bücher aus Siebenbürgen, dem Banat und Rumänien.
