Many of the creators examined here embody the human experience of war: first-hand witnesses who developed a unique visual language in direct response to their role as victim, soldier, refugee, resister, prisoner and embedded or official artist. Contributors address specific issues relating to propaganda, wartime femininity and masculinity, women as war artists, trauma, the role of art in soldiery, memory, art as resistance, identity and the memorialisation of war. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eTable of Contents:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eList of Figures\u003cbr\u003eForeword\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003eList of Contributors\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 1: Home Front\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: ‘Picturing’ World War I: German War Bond Posters and the Modern Public\u003cbr\u003eClaire Whitner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: ‘Our lovely countryside’.
