How did family, relatives and friends grieve for the dead of the
First World War? What were the forms in which the dead were
remembered in families and local communities? How was death in
action interpreted, and how were the bereaved comforted? The book
deals with these questions using Italy as its exemplar. It takes as
its sources the commemorative volumes which were widely published
by middle-class families and their friends for individuals killed
in action. They provide a unique testimony of how a oethe great
seminal catastrophe of this centurya and the trauma of death in war
were processed in the European middle classes.
