MASETIH - Migrant Authors from Southeastern Europe and the Transfer of Intangible Heritage

Migrant heritage is shaped by complex and dynamic exchange with the respective host country and other migrant groups residing in the host country, as well as networks in the country of origin. The EU-funded MASETIH project, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie action, will investigate the transmission and preservation of intangible heritage forms (such as language and dialect, religious rites or arts and crafts) through the tangible medium of the literary text. It will also assess the role they play in the life experience of migrants. Specifically, MASETIH will conduct a comparative and interdisciplinary analysis of linguistic, religious, and political heritage.
