We want to enquire into the ways that contemporary Anglophone literature and
culture represent the afterlives of war in ordinary, classed spaces. How does
conflict settle into wages, rents, neighbourhoods, family economies and domestic
spaces? How does class shape who is recruited, who returns, who cares, who is
forgotten and who is allowed to turn traumatic inheritance into recognised
cultural memory? And how might the idea of classed postmemory help us
rethink the relationship between conflict, social suffering and political loss?<\/p>\n\n\n\nProgramme<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
