adam_text | TOUCH AND INTIMACY IN
FIRST WORLD WAR LITERATURE
The First World War ravaged the male body on an unprecedented
scale, yet fostered moments of physical intimacy and tenderness
among the soldiers in the trenches. Touch, the most elusive and
private of the senses, became central to war experience. War writing
is haunted by experiences of physical contact: from the muddy
realities of the front to the emotional intensity of trench life, to the
traumatic obsession with the wounded body in nurses memoirs.
Through extensive archival and historical research, analysing previ¬
ously unknown letters and diaries alongside close investigative read¬
ings of literary writings by figures such as Owen and
Santanu Das recovers the sensuous world of the First World War
trenches and hospitals. This original and evocative study alters our
understanding of the period as well as of the body at war, and
illuminates the perilous intimacy between sense experience, emotion
and language in times of crisis.
santanu das is a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at Queen
Mary College, University of London and a former Research Fellow
at St John s College, Cambridge.
