Schweik (English, U. of California, Berkeley) looks at war poems written by American women between 1941 and 1945, and, on a larger scale, examines the workings of gender in the politics of war. The homefront and frontline, between the male soldier, traditionally understood to have experienced too much, and the woman left behind, assumed to have experienced nothing at all.
