Poetry, Grieving, and the Culture of the World Wars
Omschrijving
World War I is widely considered “the Great War” and World War II, “the Good War”. Janis Stout thinks of them as two parts of a whole that continues to engage historians and literary scholars searching for an understanding of both the actual war experiences and the modern culture of grief they embody. Poetry, of all the arts, Stout argues, most fully captures those cultural responses.
