Exhibiting the Fall of Singapore: Close Readings of a Global Event

Exhibiting the Fall of Singapore: Close Readings of a Global Event (2018)

$35

In conjunction with Witness to War, an international conference – Exhibiting the Fall: Remembering and Representing War and Its Aftermath in Asia – was held at the museum on 4 & 5 September 2017. The conference brought international academics and museum practitioners together in conversation about the ways in which Asia’s violent mid-20th-century history is understood and represented. It was co-organised with the War Memoryscapes in Asia Partnership (WARMAP), an international, interdisciplinary network of academic specialists funded by the Leverhulme Trust. This publication is a collection of papers presented at the conference.
