Abstract
The various chapters of the volume have demonstrated the power of war in impacting language, and the power of language to not only shape how we talk about war but also how we experience war, how we use language to represent war, and how we grapple with the legacies of war. This conclusion briefly considers what perspectives can be gained from a consideration of the diverse discourses of war, what is offered by new methodologies and perspectives on studying language at war, and argues for the value of placing multi-disciplinary approaches to language and war in conversation with each other. It also considers where scholarship on language and war can go next.
