Stadt − Krieg − Literatur

What happens to urban life during war? Even though cities have never been left untouched by war, since 1914, the violence of war has been characterized by the dissolution of the boundaries of the front, creating a continuum between the "home front," the events of war, and the post-war period. This volume asks how culture is produced under such conditions by taking a pan-European perspective to examine the period 1914–1945.
