As we approach the centenary of the outbreak of the First World
War, this timely reissue, first published in 1991, evaluates the
function of poetry in wartime Europe, arguing that war poetry must
be understood as a social as well as a literary phenomenon. As well
as locating the work of well-known French, English and German war
poets in a European context, Elizabeth Marsland discusses
lesser-known poetry of the war years, including poems by women and
the neglected tradition of civilian protest through poetry.
Identifying shared characteristics as well as the unique features
of each nation's poetry, The Nation's Cause affords new insight
into the relationship between nationalism and the social attitudes
that determined the conduct of war.
