“A History of Overcoming...” (Book Review: Geyn, F.F., Prusakov, M.V. & El’zesser, V.Ya. (2019) Nemtsy, Vyrosshie na Russkikh Pesnyakh [Germans Who Grew up on Russian Songs]. Tomsk: Tomsk Polytechnic University. 429 p.)

The article presents the history of a family of Russian Germans. The authors focus on the historical and cultural relations between Russia and Germany in the 18th-21st centuries, on the features of the literary human document, on the problems of new historicism, multiculturalism and the specifics of ancestral “places of memory”. The problem of hybrid identity is considered as the basis for fruitful cross-linguistic and cross-cultural contacts.
