Experiencing 11 November 2018
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-15531-2 (ISBN)
It argues that we need to move beyond discourse, narrative and how historical events are represented to fully understand what commemoration does, socially, politically and culturally. Adopting an experiential reframing treats sensory, affective and emotional feelings as fundamental to how we collectively understand shared histories, and through them, shared identities. The volume features 15 case studies from ten countries, covering a variety of settings and national contexts specific to the First World War.
Together the chapters demonstrate that a new conceptualisation of commemoration is needed: one that attends to how it feels.
