Produktbeschreibung

"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. This book is a must read for students and researchers of media and communication studies, memory studies, history and war studies."

-Joanne Garde-Hansen, University of Warwick, UK

This book explores how First World War commemoration events are presented, reported and mediated on the websites of mainstream dailynewspapers from seven European countries. The book is the result of a research group - DIREPA-EUROPE (Discours, représentations, passé de l'Europe), part of Lemel research network - characterized by a shared interest in media discourse and online newspapers. It presents a fluid analysis chain on the commemoration discourse generated by the WWI Armistice Centenary in 2018, and will be of interest not only to scholars of discourse and media studies, but also of European history, cultural memory, journalism and conflict studies.
