Fashioning the end of World War II: Lee Miller's War correspondence an intersectional approach to the text and photographs in Lee Miller's war correspondence, September 1944 to September 1945

The objective of this thesis is to re-contextualise Lee Miller's war correspondence (1944-1945) within the pages of British Vogue by providing an integrated analysis of text and photographs together in relation to layout through which this work was first framed. Unlike passed research, which often focuses on either text or photographs, this thesis, using an intersectional approach, aims to analyse how layout, photographs and text worked together as a complete package, providing the readers with a gendered space  to engage with the many intersecting discourses current within the wider social, political, cultural and historical moment in which these articles appeared.  By re-framing Miller's poly-vocal war photography and reportage within the place of publication and reintegrating text and image is crucial to understanding its full implication beyond the art historical and how it intersected with the wider historical, social, political and cultural moment from a woman war correspondent's perspective for a predominantly female readership.
