解説
Battle Lines Drawn: War Comics Since 1914 delves into the rich and diverse history of war comics, exploring how the medium represents and reflects upon global conflicts from World War I to the modern era. It critically analyses how war narratives in comics intersect with historiography, popular culture, and evolving societal perceptions of conflict.
Through a broad range of chapters, including both Western and non-Western war comics, the volume offers an inclusive perspective and addresses questions such as:
- How do war comics depict historical conflict events, and what are their limits?
- How have changing formats (e.g., long-form comics) opened new spaces for storytelling within the genre?
- And what cultural, ideological, and emotional dimensions do war comics navigate?
The book highlights not only the historical scope of war comics but also their relevance in contemporary discussions about identity, diversity, and global conflict. It balances theoretical explorations with analyses of specific texts to examine how these works reflect and shape cultural understandings of war while grappling with themes such as patriotism, trauma, political ideologies, and marginalised perspectives.
Spanning mainstream publications and indie creations, this volume offers a comprehensive exploration of how comics represent and mediate the realities of war. It will be of interest to academics, researchers, and students of comics studies, cultural studies, history, media and visual studies and war and trauma studies.
