Trails of the Blitz: Postwar British cultural narratives

Abstract

In the aftermaths of the WWI, Great Britain laid destroyed after a continuum of raids between 1940 and 1941. The Metropolis suffered deep transformations in its cultural and identity pillars affecting the dynamics of cultural expression itself. Postwar British cultural narratives would be raised onto new paradigms of comprehension rooted in disaster. Literature, Drama and Poetry flowed between traditional cultural narratives and a new-coined paradigm of understanding the subject.
