Abstract

A socio-cultural investigation into the connections and breakdown between the home front and front lines, between civilians and soldiers. East Kent (in particular Canterbury) is investigated as a micro study to test the argument that civilians became soldiers at home. The study focuses on civilian identity constructs during 1914 - 1919 across local studies of war enthusiasm, everyday life, tribunals and gendered reactions to war in East Kent.
