This book explores the uncharted territory of the history of archaeology under Communism through the biographies of five women archaeologists from the Soviet Union, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, and Poland. They were working in medieval archaeology, with a specific focus on the (early) Slavs. The choice of specialists in medieval archaeology has much to do with the fact that in the five East European countries considered in this book, medieval archaeology began to develop into a serious discipline less than a century ago. The main catalyst for the sudden rise of medieval archaeology was a dramatic shift in emphasis from traditional political and constitutional to social and economic history. In five countries, the rise of medieval archaeology thus coincides in time, and was ultimately caused by the imposition of Communist regimes. The five women were therefore true pioneers in their field, and respective countries.

Diese Bibliographie ist bemuht, die einschlagigen Publikationen zum Thema Bukowina moglichst vollstandig zu erfassen. Das Land, Geologie und Geographie, Flora und Fauna, Geschichte und Statistik, Stadte und Gemeinden, Bevolkerung und Volkskunde, Bildungswesen und Kirchen, Kunst und Kultur, Wirtschaft und Biographien sind die Hauptthemen dieser Sammlung, neben sehr vielen Untergliederungen der verschiedensten Art. Auf dem Gebiet der "biographischen Arbeiten," die einen bemerkenswert grossen Anteil der Titel umfassen, soll eine brauchbare Grundlage geschaffen werden fur ein immer noch fehlendes, deutschsprachiges biographisches Lexikon der Bukowina. Hilfreich ist diese bibliographische Sammlung vor allem auch auf Gebieten, die bislang noch nicht grundlegend und wissenschaftlich behandelt wurden, wie z.B. der Wirtschaftsgeschichte.
