Family Mourning After War and Disaster in Twentieth-Century Britain
Foster, Ann-Marie (Chancellor's Fellow, School of Creative and Cultural Business, Chancellor's Fellow, School of Creative and Cultural Business, Robert Gordon University and AHRC Early Career Fellow in Cultural and Heritage Institutions, Imperial War Muse
Explores family reactions to mass death events in early twentieth-century Britain to show how families pushed against state-imposed memorial narratives and created objects to enable themselves to mourn. This is a unique, comparative, and domestic perspective on mourning that makes important contributions to the field of death studies.
