Summary/Abstract: The analysis of some video interviews collected by the local historian Giorgio Delle Donne demonstrates how family background and external factors such as politics and the media have influenced the way the Italian-speaking population, which arrived in South Tyrol between the 1920s and 1940s, experienced its settling in a new area. The Oral History Archive stored in the Claudia Augusta Italian Provincial Library portrays the issues between the German and Italian-speaking groups in this borderland.
