Abstract:War and Remembrance brings an interdisciplinary approach to discussions of the cultural memory of war, offering case studies that analyze art, film, museums, and literature, question our current approaches to memory studies, and reinterpret established narratives, foregrounding what is often forgotten in the writing of a single, official History.
