This book is published in association with the German Historical Institute, Washington, D.C. Recent years have witnessed growing scholarly interest in the history of death. Increasing academic attention toward death as a historical subject in its own right is very much linked to its pre-eminent place in 20th-century history, and Germany, predictably, occupies a special place in these inquiries. This collection of essays explores how German mourning changed over the 20th century in different contexts, with a particular view to how death was linked to larger issues of social order and cultural self-understanding. The essays examine not only monuments and official commemorations of desired pasts, but also the proliferation of memoirs, town museums and family photo-albums in the wake of social upheavals. This volume contributes to a history of death in 20th-century Germany that does not begin and end with the Third Reich.
