#homefront article of the week: Shinobu Anzai studies popular radio songs to show how #WWII #Japanese #women's domestic roles transformed from the traditional domestic sphere to encompass the "national family." An intriguing study of wartime #symbol use. doi.org/p45k
#homefront article of the week: #WWI coincided with sizeable #migration waves, with cascading effects. Here, @selenadaly studies the moving plight of #Italian #women—new immigrants in crisis because their reservist husbands had been deployed back home. doi.org/p4dh
#homefront article of the week: John J. Curley examines #ColdWar-era Spanish art as marked by temporal confusion. In this view #Franco’s dictatorship & #Spain’s #ColdWar position produced a collapse in which the present merged into various pasts. @WFUart doi.org/p3tn
#Homefront research opportunity! Oxford's Their Finest Hour Project has released a vast online trove of 2,600+ letters between Frank & May Watson during #WWII. It's an enormous collection with great potential for scholarship. More details here: theirfinesthour.english.ox.ac.uk/watsoncollecti…
#homefront article of the week: A great deal of research on wartime women emphasizes empowerment & opportunity. Here, Aleksandra Jakubczak offers a rebuttal via a study of the desperation of Jewish women on #WWI’s Eastern Front—thoroughly compelling work. doi.org/p2w7
#homefront article of the week: Brian P. Luskey studies the multiple processes underlying the #USCivilWar’s cultural production--from those who created it to those who consumed it—finding a vast & complex web. Intriguing work! @WVUHistoryDept doi.org/10.1353/cwe.20…
#homefront article of the week: Tobias Christ illustrates how domestic #propaganda & #censorship go hand-in-hand with a study of the #Nazi suppression of a 1944 novel whose depiction of occupied Ukraine in #WWII was deemed too truthful. doi.org/pztj @PubResQuarterly
#homefront article of the week: Yusung Kim offers a great case study of wartime symbol use by showing how #US #ColdWar propaganda agencies used science exhibitions & displays in #Japan as #propaganda to encode the geopolitical context. Interesting work! doi.org/pxdv
#homefront article of the week: #WWII #WashingtonDC was an inviting target for #Axis attacks. Here, Anne Dobberteen recovers the lost role of the women of the Antiaircraft Artillery Command, whose labor challenged gender roles & protected the capital city. bit.ly/3Ujjp0i
#homefront article of the week: @JulieVGottlieb revisits the so-called Phoney War in the UK (1938-40), using impressive primary data showing that the psychological impacts of the conflict manifested in nervous disorders & even a wave of “crisis suicides.” doi.org/pv4b
#homefront article of the week: How do you prepare teenaged American girls for a #ColdWar? Brian Rouleau argues that romantic comic books were an essential vehicle for doing so, with vital messages about courtship & sexuality during national mobilization. doi.org/pvdh
#homefront article of the week: @WendyLRouse uncovers the intriguing role of militarized self-defense training for US women during #WWII, complete with gender-based perceptions and even racist depictions of potential attackers. Fascinating history! @SJSU doi.org/ptsf
#homefront article of the week: The 1960s #Nigerian Civil War went far beyond battlefields, with secessionist Biafrans adopting an in-depth visual propaganda to define a new national identity. Rebecca Wolff has the intriguing details. @christophernewportu doi.org/psng
#homefront article of the week: @HarryMerritt argues that the #USCivilWar’s Lost Cause narrative wasn’t unique. Post #WWII narratives of Latvians who’d fought in German-led legions show telltale signs of similar mythmaking. Insightful work! @uvmhistory doi.org/prtv
#homefront article of the week: #ColdWar rhetoric was obsessed with covert #sexuality. Here, Jennifer L. Lambe charts transnational narratives of the #CubanRevolution, finding a curious overlap between sexual panic and ideological panic. A smart analysis. doi.org/pp44
#homefront article of the week: Zhang Yun takes us back to #WWII #China to look at the gendered role of female nurses. Studying a variety of wartime media, the study concludes that the women defiantly asserted their agency, subjectivity & self-empowerment. brill.com/view/journals/…
#homefront article of the week: Robert Dean recovers the 1914-15 staging of _Europe_, a ballet about the ongoing Great War. This London melodrama included a decoupage map of Europe from which nationalistic characters performed. Great archival work. doi.org/ppcc@unilincoln
#homefront article of the week: Bennett Parten digs into Cyrena Stone’s #USCivilWar-era diary, arguing that its wide-ranging observations support a growing scholarly recognition that battlefront & home front are “intwined spaces.” @BennettParten doi.org/pnh4
#homefront article of the week: The curious intersection of #wartime, cartography, & #women grounds this #WWII study, which maps the transformation of mapmaking via the experiences of 3 of the women who were there. Great recovered history. @KSU_CollegeofAS doi.org/pkpp
#homefront article of the week: Julie R. Estlick checks in with an intriguing study of the boiler suit—spied recently on the Barbie movie set but made famous by #WWII’s Rosie the Riveter and ever since a complex feminist symbol. Fascinating! @cubouldercmci doi.org/pkpn
