«Germany: Memories of a Nation» is Neil MacGregor's historical essay, published by Viking in hardcover (598 pages, in English).
Neil MacGregor argues that German history admits no single narrative and examines it through objects, ideas, people and places that still weigh on the country's collective memory. The journey begins with Gutenberg's printing press and visits Dresden porcelain, Bauhaus design, Aachen Cathedral and the gates of Buchenwald, among other landmarks that help understand German identity.
Published in 2014, the book accompanies the series Germany: Memories of a Nation on BBC Radio 4.
Aimed at readers interested in German history, European culture and popular non-fiction.
