dc.description.abstractLa Première Guerre Mondiale marque l’apparition de la guerre totale, où l’effort de guerre nécessite la volonté de la population entière . L’ampleur de la violence touche consciemment la population civile pour la première fois ; plus de douze millions d’habitants en Belgique et dans le nord de la France, dont la majorité sont des femmes, passent quatre années de guerre en zones occupées. Pourtant, l’expérience de cette population traditionnellement non-combattante manque d’une représentation dans l’histoire de la guerre. Malgré les histoires d’atrocités qui se produisent pendant la guerre, les premiers historiens de la guerre ignorent les témoins civils. Cette méfiance de l’expérience civile est la conséquence de la propagande ainsi que des opinions rigides concernant la position de civils dans l’historiographie de la guerre. Afin de décrire la vie des femmes en zones occupées, ce mémoire utilise leurs journaux intimes écrits lors de l’occupation.fr
dc.description.abstractThe First World War is the first example of total warfare, where the war effort is both supported and endured by the entire population. Violence usually confined to the battlefield would for the first time target civilians in Belgium and northern France. Millions of civilians, predominantly women, would spend the duration of the war living under occupation; however the wartime experience of these traditional non-combatants is poorly represented in the historiography. With the exception of atrocity propaganda that originated during the war, the experience of civilians has been largely ignored by historians. The cynicism regarding occupied civilian experience is largely attributed to the entrenchment of propaganda as well as the traditional view of what constitutes a victim of war. Through the study of primary sources, most notably diaries written during the occupation, this thesis is a contribution towards determining the reality of women’s lives under occupation.en_NZ
