Sinossi
This book is about how Australia ŅremembersÓ the Second World War, focusing on the year-long commemorative program Australia Remembers 1934-1995, which took place all over Australia from small towns and local organizations to official national events. For many of the Second World War generation this was the recognition that they had been yearning for. This book analyzes how the commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the war represented ŅremembranceÓ visually, in text, and in spectacle, and makes some comparisons with similar events in Canada and New Zealand. Its key themes of nostalgia, memory and commemoration are linked to explorations of how Australia as a nation seeks to reconstruct its identity, and the extent to which Australia Remembers contains new ways of representing previously ignored groups such as Australian Indigenous people and women.

Paperback trade, very good condition, figures, spine little faded, few small marks top edge, minor edgewear. 204 pp. Liz Reed provides an in-depth analysis of the ways in which Australia remembers the Second World War, focusing on the year-long commemorative program 'Australia Remembers 1945 - 1995'. Australia Remembers was a pageant of events which took place throughout 1995 all over Australia in small towns, local organisations and official national events. The author analyses how the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the war's end represented 'remembrance' visually, in text and in spectacle. The main themes are nostalgia, memory and commemoration, and how they are linked to explorations of how Australia as a nation seeks to (re)construct its identity, and the extent to which Australia Remembers expresses new ways of representing Australian Indigenous people and women.
