Popis: | This article provides a synthesis of research on bereavement and mourning in Britain during the First World War and its aftermath in the historical context of changing British mourning practices from the 1860s to the 1960s. The First World War had a profound impact on attitudes and practices relating to death, bereavement and mourning in Britain after 1914. There was a gradual shift away from a dominant Christian culture of acceptance of death and more open expression of grief in the 1860s to a more secular culture of suppressed private mourning and public commemoration after 1914. 1914-1918-Online International Encyclopedia of the First World War |
