The Blitz, the period of Nazi bombing campaigns on civilian Britain
during the Second World War, was a formative period for British
national identity. In this groundbreaking book, David Clampin looks
at the images, campaigns and slogans which helped to form the
fabled 'Blitz spirit', powerfully echoed in Winston Churchill's
speeches. During the war, advertisers attempted to capitalise on
war-time patriotism and, therefore, Clampin's unique focus on
advertising provides a visually rich seam of new information on the
everyday war and contributes to the debate on people's experiences
of war and nationalism. Using a remarkable and hitherto unseen
range of primary source material-advertisements in the press,
slogans and posters, this work will reshape the contested meanings
of the 'Home Front', opening up cultural history discourses on
gender and nationalism. Advertising and Propaganda in World War II
is essential reading for historians of World War II as well as
students and scholars of Media Studies and Communication Studies.
