The essays collected here suggest some of the ways in which an
interdisciplinary perspective may contribute to our understanding
of the Great War. Contributors examine the relationship between the
character of the war and the nature of belligerent societies, and
present original research on the comparative history of the First
World War. In 1914-1918, the front lines did not only separate
warring nations, but also cut across belligerent societies and
ultimately determined the social responses to the conflict. Indeed,
the 'totalizing logic' of the First World War entailed the blurring
of boundaries between combatants and non-combatants, soldier and
civilian. Subjects included are operational and tactical evolution,
social mobilization, military discipline and morale, prisoners of
war, veterans and demobilization, religion and politics, war
literature and cinema, memory and commemoration. Contributors:
Pierre Purseigle; Patrick Porter; Dennis Showalter; Leonard V.
Smith; Nicolas Ginsburger; Elise Julien; Paul Mulvey; Keith
Grieves; Leen Engelen; Nicolas Beaupre; Jennifer D. Keene;
Elizabeth Fordham; Vanda Wilcox; Heather Jones; Gearoid Barry.
