Other Fronts, Other Wars? - First World War Studies on the Eve of the Centennial (Hardcover)

Other Fronts, Other Wars? goes beyond the Western Front geographically and delves behind the trenches focusing on the social and cultural history of the First World War: it covers front experiences in the Ottoman and Russian Armies, captivity in Japan and Turkey, occupation at the Eastern war theatre, medical history (epidemics in Serbia, medical treatment in Germany) and war relief (disabled soldiers in Austria). It studies the home front from the aspect of gender (loosing manliness), transnational comparisons (provincial border towns) and culture (home front entertainments in European metropoles) and gives insight on how attitudes were shaped through intellectual wars of scientists and through commemoration in Serbia. Thus the volume offers a wide range of new approaches to the history of the First World War. Contributors are Kate Arrioti, Altai Atli, Gunda Barth-Scalmani, Joachim Burgschwentner, Wolfram Dornik, Indira Durakovic, Matthias Egger, Maciej Gorny, Andrea Griffante, Ke-chin Hsia, Rudolf Kucera, Eva Krivanec, Stephan Lehnstaedt, Bernhard Liemann, Tilman Ludke, Andrea McKenzie, Mahon Murphy, Nicolas Patin, Livia Prull, Philipp Rauh, Paul Simmons, Christian Steppan and Katarina Todic.
