DESCRIPTION:Traditional histories of war have focused overwhelmingly on ma
 sculine narratives of military action\, diplomacy\, and political maneuver
 ing\, leaving the "home front" and private\, domestic life relatively unst
 udied. The papers in this panel look instead at relations between mothers 
 and children\, and the varied roles both have assumed during periods of ar
 med conflict\, asking how women coped during times of great uncertainty\, 
 navigating social boundaries\, balancing national and familial commitments
 \, and enduring the injury or even death of their children.\n\nDr. Claire
