Norwegian Remembrance of the World Wars
local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
Although Norway largely escaped the horrors of World War I, it was invaded and occupied by Nazi Germany for five years during World War II. This volume considers Norway's collective memory of the wars: how they are processed, negotiated, and commemorated. Its contributions consider a variety of modalities, including literature, education, landscapes, and photographs, showing how cultural memory of the wars affected and continues to affect Norwegian culture, society, and international relations. Crucially, this volume also illustrates that cultural memory is not static but emergent, responsive to changing politics, social pressures, and world affairs. Like individual memories, collective memory is dynamic, malleable, and vitally important.
