Today, the enemy dead might be largely hidden from view, but this wasn't always the case. During both world wars, Germans and Britons died in their thousands in enemy territory. From Berlin to Bath, London to Leipzig, civilian communities buried the enemy in the closest parish churchyard. Perhaps surprisingly, local people embraced these graves, often caring for them with considerable tenderness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTim Grady explores the history of this curious aspect of postwar community in \u003cem\u003eBurying the Enemy\u003c\/em\u003e. He reveals how, as the two states moved bodies to new military cemeteries, local people protested at the disturbance of the dead, and ties between the bereaved families and those who cared for the graves were severed forever. With the enemy out of sight and mind, the British and Germans concentrated solely on commemorating their own war dead, and their own sacrifices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday's insular public memory of the world wars was only made possible by clearing away signs of the enemy—allowing people to tell themselves much simpler narratives of the recent past as a result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000560959724,"sku":"9780300273977","price":59.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/24737513482294.jpg?v=1763284934"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/tim-grady.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
