CFP: Vivere la guerra. Pensare la pace / Living war. Thinking peace (1914-1921).

Deportees, Exiles, Refugees (www.unive.it/dep), is organising an international conference on women and the First World War to be held in Venice on 27th and 28th November 2014.

In methodological terms, preference will be given to subjective and collective perspectives in order to move beyond the conventional images and representations produced by wartime “deployment”.
