Women and girls in Canada and Newfoundland were indelibly affected by, and were integral parts of, their countries' war efforts. Yet their varied responses and myriad activities are not recognized in our memory of the war. 520 $a A Sisterhood of Suffering and Service actively engages in redressing that absence and in exploring why the retelling of women's stories meets such resistance. Drawing upon a multidisciplinary spectrum of recent work -- studies on mobilizing women, paid and volunteer employment at home and overseas, grief, childhood, family life, and literary representations -- this collection brings Canadian and Newfoundland women and girls into the history of the First World War and marks their place in the narrative of national transformation. 520 $a Recognizing women's active and emotional responses to the First World War is a crucial step towards understanding how that war shaped Newfoundland and Canada both during and after the conflict. This volume is therefore essential reading for anyone interested in the history of women, the First World War, Newfoundland, or Canada."--pub. desc. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $x Women $z Canada. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $x Children $z Canada. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $x Women $z Newfoundland and Labrador. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $x Children $z Newfoundland and Labrador. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $z Canada $x Literature and the war. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $z Newfoundland and Labrador $x Literature and the war. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $x Femmes $z Canada. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $x Enfants $z Canada. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $x Femmes $z Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $x Enfants $z Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $z Canada $x LitteÌrature et guerre. 650 6 $a Guerre mondiale, 1914-1918 $z Terre-Neuve-et-Labrador $x LitteÌrature et guerre. 700 1 $a Shaw, Amy J. $q (Amy Jeannette), $d 1972-, $e editor. 700 1 $a Glassford, Sarah Carlene, $d 1978-, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211030841.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=95B47E02152711E3AA706A77DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
