Summary of The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier Modern Mourning and the Reinvention of the Mystical Body by Laura Wittman PDF

I slutningen af 1. Verdenskrig indførte flere krigsførende lande et nyt hidtil ukendt ritual. Kroppen af en anonym soldat, død på slagmarken, blev begravet i "den ukendte soldats grav" for at symbolisere den fælles sorg over slagmarkens voldsomme traumer. Ved at undersøge hvordan forskellige lande ofte med vidt forskellig politisk og kulturel baggrund har anvendt "Den ukendte Soldat" symbolsk, hævder forfatteren, at der er skabt en ny måde at udtrykke fælles national sorg på.
