War, Experience and Memory in Global Cultures Since 1914
This edited collection explores and develops representations of war experience from 1914 to the ongoing conflicts of the twenty-first century, through the specific lens of memory. It builds on recent explorations of the importance of war experience in shaping cultural memory that have focused on the aftermath of the First World War and the Second World War, particularly through Holocaust studies. These essays, by a range of international and interdisciplinary scholars, broaden the scope considerably, examining the alternate spaces of the First World War and those that followed it through a range of different media, offering an artistic trajectory to the centennial commemorations of 20142018.

Angela K. Smith and Sandra Barkhof
The years of the centenary of the First World War have focused nation and international attention on memory; on memory of the war itself, revisiting and re-categorising the ways in which it was experienced; on the legacies of that war emphasising how the cultural acts of remembrance it inspired have shaped the decades that followed; and in turn on the ways in which we remember war more generally as we move further into the twenty-first century. We now understand that there can be no war to end all wars, that war is an aspect of humanity, however undesirable, that we never seem to escape. Each new conflict that we experience, in our contemporary, global society, impacts across the world. The mechanisms of combat, the experience of war has shifted over time. Now, arguably, every war is a World War of sorts.
As communities across the world have come together to remember the First World War, so scholarship relating to war and to memory has developed in tandem. Memory studies, which has fascinated humanity since the classical period, has been a fast-growing discipline since Maurice Halbwachs seminal work, Les Cadres sociaux de la memoire (1925). As a discipline, it was fed and nurtured by a powerful desire to remember the Great war as it began to slip into the past.1 Halbwachs ideas are particularly important in the context of war because of the influence of his work, as Michael Rossington argues, on the recent thinking about commemoration and public memory.2 Indeed, in recent years, there has been what Mary Fulbrook called a memory boom as scholars from various fields, prompted by a growing interest in the past among non-professional circles, have dedicated studies to collective memory, historical consciousness, the relation between history and memory, and the significance of remembrance activities for historical developments.3 As Rossington notes, the phrase collective memory proposes that practices of remembrance are shaped and reinforced by the societies and cultures in which they occur,4 building on Halbwachs assertion that [h]istory can be represented as the universal memory of the human species. But there is no universal memory. Every collective memory requires the support of a group delimited in space and time.5 Groups and agencies do not just shape their collective memories. They are equally defined by them: Powerful
