The second battlefield

Focusing on the written experiences of women during the First World War, this book utilizes unpublished diaries and letters to reveal how new roles prompted a quest for innovative forms of expression. By blending literary criticism with historical context, it offers fresh insights into the scholarship surrounding women and war, challenging existing definitions of modernism. This volume serves as a valuable complement to Angela K. Smith's earlier anthology, enriching the understanding of women's contributions during this pivotal time.
