Much of the recent literature on cultural demobilisation or remobilisation after the First World War has focused on men and masculinity. By contrast, this interdisciplinary volume of essays sets out to examine the importance of women’s movements and individual female activists to the shaping of post-war Europe at the private, communal, national and transnational levels. Key themes include the commemoration of the war dead; the renegotiation of gender roles; suffrage and political rights; and women’s contribution to the establishment of new visions of peace or national revenge and regeneration in the years 1918 to 1923. The eighteen chapters cover countries in Central and Eastern Europe, as well as Western Europe, and defeated as well as victorious nations, thus allowing for a more nuanced understanding of the deep impact of the war and its aftermath on the continent as a whole. Contributors are Nikolai Vukov, Emma Schiavon, Christiane Streubel, Erika Kuhlman, Ann Rea, Ingrid Sharp, Olga Shnyrova, Fatmira Musaj and Beryl Nicholson, Christine Bard, Gabriella Hauch, Judith Szapor, Sylwia Kuźma-Markowska, Virginija Jurėnienė, Judit Acsády, Matthew Stibbe, Bruce Berglund, David Hudson and Jill Liddington.

A Cultural History of Peace presents an authoritative survey from ancient times to the present. The set of six volumes covers a span of 2500 years, tracing how different cultures and societies have thought about, struggled for, developed and sustained peace in different ways and at different times. 1. A Cultural History of Peace in Antiquity (500 BCE - 800 CE) ; 2. A Cultural History of Peace in the Medieval Age (800 - 1450) ; 3. A Cultural History of Peace in the Renaissance (1450 - 1648) ; 4. A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Enlightenment (1648 - 1815) ; 5. A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Empire (1815 - 1920) ; 6. A Cultural History of Peace in the Modern Age (1920 - present). Each volume discusses the same themes in its chapters: 1. Definitions of Peace; 2. Human Nature, Peace and War; 3. Peace, War and Gender; 4. Peace, Pacifism and Religion; 5. Representations of Peace; 6. Peace as Integration; 7. Peace Movements; 8. Peace, Security and Deterrence. This structure offers readers a broad overview of a period within each volume or the opportunity to follow a theme through history by reading the relevant chapter across volumes. Generously illustrated, the full six-volume set combines to present the most authoritative and comprehensive survey available on peace in history.
