Description

Material Traces of War: Stories of Canadian Women and Conflict, 1914-1945 looks at Canadian women's experiences of, and contributions to, the world wars through objects, images, and archival documents. The book tells the stories of women who served in the military, volunteered their time, worked as civilians, and grieved lost loved ones, through thematically organized vignettes. The authors place these personal narratives of individual women, and their related material, in the wider context of the world wars, while demonstrating that the experience of living through global conflict was as individual as a woman's particular circumstances. Drawing from the collections of the Canadian War Museum, the Canadian Museum of History, and other public and private collections in Canada, Material Traces of War brings largely unknown material to public view and draws attention to the untold stories of women and war. Review "Material Traces of War: Stories of Canadian Women and Conflict, 1914--1945 promet de fournir une meilleure compréhension de ce que signifie l'effort de guerre quand une société entière s'y implique, comme ce fut le cas d'abord de 1914-1918 et à nouveau durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale de 1939-1945. Ce livre est issu d'une exposition qui a été présentée au Musée canadien de la guerre en 2015-2016. Il s'agit du résultat d'une collaboration fructueuse entre trois autrices dévouées qui apportent une riche expérience muséale au sujet. Il est très gratifiant de voir leur recherche se réaliser ainsi. » - John Willis, retraité, ayant travaillé au Musée Canadien de l'histoire jusqu'en 2019 où il agissait en tant que directeur de la collection Mercure. About the Author Stacey Barker est historienne au Musée canadien de la guerre. Elle a obtenu un doctorat en histoire de l’Université d’Ottawa et travaille dans le domaine de l’histoire publique depuis plus d’une décennie. Krista Cooke est une historienne publique qui a 20 ans d’expérience dans les musées et les archives au Canada. Elle étudie la façon dont l’histoire des femmes est représentée dans les expositions, les collections et les programmes de musées. Molly McCullough est conservatrice adjointe en agriculture, en alimentation et en textiles à Ingenium – Musées des sciences et de l’innovation du Canada. Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. “The body of literature on the world wars is vast. Academic histories claim considerable shelf space along with popular works emphasising the heroism of everyday folk. If these books have anything in common other than war, it is the gender of those at the centre of these stories. Men were indeed the ones who strategized and fought. But they were not the only ones who experienced the brutal world wars of the twentieth century. Women lived these wars too. How they lived these wars, what they did and how they did it, is at the heart of this book.’’
