“By attempting to overcome the national and temporal boundaries that often inhibit comprehensions of social memory, War and Remembrance expands our knowledge of how past armed conflicts are now interpreted while also advancing knowledge regarding the ways that our modes and orientations to history have shifted.” Brad West, University of South Australia and author of Finding Gallipoli: Battlefield Remembrance and the Movement of Australian and Turkish History
“War and Remembrance makes a valuable contribution to the academic field of the cultural representations of war memories in various geographical and historical settings. The wide variety of topics and the authors’ high level of scholarship offer valuable insights for scholars and students interested in the study of war history or cultural memory.” Medicine, Conflict and Survival
“The book’s vivid insights into the ‘gigantic puzzle of war representations’ offer a fresh perspective on collective identities [and] presents a tapestry of contributions that allows readers to gain a uniquely international perspective on the ways in which past wars shape societies today. As the Russian invasion of Ukraine shows, both cultural and material battles can be waged under the guise of a commitment to memory.” International Affairs
