Using Canadian novels
of the First World War, from 1914-1939,
this thesis examines the
portrayal of wounded and disabled soldiers.
Employing a new historicist
approach, it explores issues of masculinity,
nationality and disability
by tracing how these novels depicted
the physical effect of conflict
on soldiers’ bodies,
how that depiction altered as
war literature changed and how
the novels both supported and
undermined state attempts to
control the evolving portrayal
of soldiers’ health.
