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.
