“…The former Western Front dominates, and sites such as Passchendaele on the Somme stand for the whole of the Great War, despite that conflict's wider territorial reach (Iles, 2003), and multiple sites of remembrance seal places across Belgium and northern France as perpetual landscapes of military aftermath. Identified for their significance as places of national identity construction and reconstruction, site-specific studies include assessments of the Newfoundland memorial at Beaumont Hammel on the Somme (Gough, 2004a), the Canadian national memorial on Vimy ridge (Hucker, 2009), the South African memorial at Delville Wood (Foster, 2004), and the Ulster Memorial Tower also on the Somme (Switzer and Graham, 2010).
