Time Bows Beneath the Burden of the Grapes. The Past, Czechs and Germans in the Serbian Banat

Original title Pod tíhou hroznů čas se sklání. Z minulosti Čechů a Němců v srbském Banátu

[mlsid]

In the 18th century the Serbian Banat gained its multicultural face, lined with vineyards on the countryside’s fertile slopes. Cultivating the grape vine became the common ground of the everyday joys and sorrows of ethnic Germans and Czechs, joint witnesses to historic events. Their stories form a colorful mosaic of personal testimony about forgotten human stories that describe the Banat’s conflicts, tolerance, and deep religiosity.
