Forgetful Allies: Truth, Myth and Memory in the two World Wars and After

About this item
Image inherited from collection
Description: The aim of this conference is to explore key moments during the two World Wars at which British and French experience and understanding of events differed, and which have been the cause of continuing misunderstanding, resentment and prejudice. We concentrate on moments whose memory continues to affect perceptions today, and part of the aim is precisely to combat misunderstanding, resentment, prejudice, and perhaps above all forgetfulness.
