- English abstract
- This chapter explores the emotional and cultural coping strategies of British, French and German prisoners of war in WWI. The author borrows methodological strategies from postcolonial historians to assess POWs' efforts to manage their living conditions, assessing their coping mechanisms within the framework of subaltern forms of endurance and resistance. She focuses on three types of coping mechanisms: 1) finding means of continuing to 'fight' the war and display patriotism during captivity; 2) strategies of displacement and forgetting such as education, sport and sociability; and 3) fatalism.
