Book Synopsis Conflict, Nationhood and Corporeality in Modern Literature by : P. Rau
Book excerpt: This collection examines ways in which modern literature responds to the body-at-war, examining the effects of violent conflict on the body in its literal and representative forms. Spanning literature from World War I to the present day, it includes essays on pacifist theatre, torture, fascist fantasies, and uniforms and masculinity.
