Victory Banner Over the Reichstag : Film, Document, and Ritual in Russia's Contested Memory of World War II Hardback
by Jeremy Hicks
Part of the Russian and East European Studies series
Hardback
Description
One of the iconic images of WWII was a Russian soldier raising a red flag atop the ruins of the German Reichstag.
Award-winning author Hicks explores how the Soviets, and then Putin, have used this image and the banner itself to build a remarkably powerful mythology of Russian greatness.
