This book explores the differing ways in which language has been
used to try to make sense of the First World War. Offering further
developments in an innovative approach to the study of the
conflict, it develops a transnational viewpoint of the experience
of war to reveal less expected areas of language use during the
conflict. Taking the study of the First World War far beyond the
Western Front, chapters examine experiences in many regions,
including Africa, Armenia, post-war Australia, Russia and Estonia,
and a variety of contexts, from prisoner-of-war and internment
camps, to food queues and post-war barracks. Drawing upon a wide
variety of languages, such as Esperanto, Flemish, Italian,
Kiswahili, Portuguese, Romanian and Turkish, Multilingual
Environments in the Great War brings together language experiences
of conflict from both combatants and the home front, connecting
language and literature with linguistic analysis of the immediacy
of communication.
