Contemporary Federal Republic of Germany defines itself as an immigrant country, and the statement fully corresponds with the actual situation. As a result of a mass inflow of foreigners, which began in 1950s, one out of every five German citizens can tell his/her own or family history of immigration. These facts serve as a basis for the question concerning the extent to which immigration that turned the FRG into a multicultural country, has become a part of the German collective memory. While referring to the concept of cultural memory by Jan and Aleida Assmann, the author presents and analyzes modern ways of preserving the immigrant past as well as expressing remembrance about it in the public sphere (jubilees, exhibitions, and monographs on culture). The process of including migration in the national history is highly dynamic, with its initiators being most often the descendants of immigrants who demand greater pluralism within Germany’s cultural memory.

This article is an analysis of Tunel (The Tunnel), the novel by Magdalena Parys, a Polish author living in Germany. The action of the book focuses on the fictional construction of an escape tunnel built under the border wall between the western and eastern part of Berlin in the early 1980s. This, somehow, predestines Parys’s work to be read in the context of transgression, and crossing limitations. Starting with the writer’s non-literary inspirations, the article shows the multiplicity of literal and metaphorical meanings of the term “border” and examines how the motif functions in the presented world.
