The unprecedented scope and intensity of the First World War has
prompted an enormous body of retrospective scholarship. However,
efforts to provide a coherent synthesis about the war's impact and
significance have remained circumscribed, tending to focus either
on the operational outlines of military strategy and tactics or on
the cultural legacy of the conflict as transmitted bythe war's most
articulate observers. This volume departs from traditional accounts
on several scores: by exploring issues barely touched upon in
previous works, by deviating from the widespread tendency to treat
the experiences of front and homefront isolation, and by employing
a thematic treatment that, by considering the construction of
authority and identity between 1914 and 1918, illuminates the
fundamental question of how individuals, whether in uniform or not,
endured the war's intrusion into so many aspects of their public
and private lives.
