- Description
- Collection of essays with recent research into the impact of the conflict on British women during the First World War and since. It introduces lesser-known aspects of women's war experience, including female composers' musical responses to the war, changes in the culture of women's mourning dress, and the relationships between war, motherhood, and politics. The chapters also consider the gendered nature of war memory in Britain, exploring the emotional legacies of the conflict today, and the place of women's wartime stories on the contemporary stage. This book was originally published as a special issue of Women's History Review.
