The central question raised here could not be more relevant, given the present tensions within the European Union. The readers will be fascinated to see how the construction of WWI memory in a sample of countries speaks both to an Europeanisation and a nationalisation trend, thus mirroring the complex cultural dynamics at work at the EU scale.-Gérard Bouchard , Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, Canada.
A powerful and diverse range of interdisciplinary scholarship that offers an up-to-date appreciation of how 21st century media events and representations produce a culture of First World War memory across Europe. Each chapter explores the memorialising, inscribing, performing and shaping of how we are meant to remember this war through contemporary media. It shows clearly how media discourses turn past stories into influence and action - ensuring that audiences as well as those in power align themselves (through images and text) to the key narratives. This book is a must read for students and researchers of media and communication studies, memory studies, history and war studies. -Joanne Garde-Hansen , Professor of Culture, Media and Communication, University of Warwick, UKMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
