The selected works foreground how women\u0026amp;#x2019;s representations of war can challenge masculine conceptualizations of public and domestic spheres. Christine Arkinstall analyses the works\u0026amp;#x2019; overarching themes and symbols, such as honour, blood, the Virgin and the Mother, and the intersecting sexual, social, and racial contracts. In doing so, Arkinstall highlights how these texts imagine outcomes that deviate from established norms of femininity, offer new models to Spanish women, and interrogate the militaristic foundations of patriarchal societies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: From behind the Lines to Writing War\u0026amp;#x2019;s Texts: Redrawing the Boundaries of War and Gender\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
