  • Chapter 23: War and Revolution, 1914-1919
    The Twentieth- Century Crisis 1914–1945 The eriod in Perspective The period between 1914 and 1945 was one of the most destructive in the history of humankind. As many as 60 million people died as a result of World Wars I and II, the global conflicts that began and ended this era. As World War I was followed by revolutions, the Great Depression, totalitarian regimes, and the horrors of World War II, it appeared to many that European civilization had become a nightmare. By 1945, the era of European domination over world affairs had been severely shaken. With the decline of Western power, a new era of world history was about to begin.

  • The Patriotism of Hardin County, Tennessee
    McKinnon 1 Lauren McKinnon HIST 499 Research Paper December 5, 2017 The Patriotism of Hardin County, Tennessee McKinnon 2 The United States entered into the first World War on April 6, 1917, and the country found itself being asked to give in ways that it had not given since the Civil War. The citizens of many towns and cities in the United States were angry or confused as to the reasons why they should be dragged into a world war. A county located on the Tennessee River, bordering the Alabama and Mississippi state lines, however, embraced the war campaign. Hardin County and its people quickly began preparing for, and participating in, the war effort. Many of the activities which occurred in Hardin County during the United States’ involvement in World War I were recorded in the local newspaper, the Courier. The Courier had been the main source of news for Hardin County since 1884 and the various communities in Hardin County depended on it to inform them of both local and universal events. Between April 1917 and November 1918, the Courier captured the patriotism of Hardin Countians in articles about the war efforts on the homefront (the Red Cross, War Savings Stamps, Liberty Loans and Bonds, and the YMCA), how the community responded (schools and churches), and reports from the soldiers during their time in the military. In March of 1918, the book Over the Top began to be published in the Courier.1 It was written by Arthur Guy Empey who “convinced the British Army to let him enlist, shipped out for France, saw… action in the trenches, and was badly wounded at the Somme” which led to his “[eventual discharge] and [shipment] back home, where he got to work on a book about his experiences.”2 In preparation for it, short advertisements were placed in the local and personal section.

  • Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research
    Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research Collection Department of History The University of Western Ontario INTRODUCTION The collection is a diverse assortment of archival materials, microforms, published and printed documents, and secondary sources relating to the cultural dimensions of conflict and the collective memory of war. Its holdings, which might be broadly defined as ephemera, are strongest in a number of areas: • popular culture artifacts • materials relating to veterans organizations • children’s literature and educational materials relating to war history • military training and instructional manuals • wartime publications • materials relating to prisoners of war There are also a large number of personal files that vary in their content. Some contain a long range of correspondence or other material, while others contain a single image or artifact. The original materials in the collection are eclectic, and reflect the manner in which they have been gathered. The emphasis has not been on a coherent acquisitions policy, but rather on preserving materials that might otherwise have been lost. Visits to the collection are by appointment only. Researchers who are unable to visit the archives in person may in certain circumstances be able to purchase photocopies of selected materials. For further information, please contact: Jonathan F.

  • Fritz and Tommy: Across the Barbed Wire
    Fritz and Tommy: Across the Barbed Wire Peter Doyle1 and Robin Schäfer2 1University College London, London, UK 2Dinslaken, Germany Abstract. Interest in the Soldatensprache or ‘trench slang’ was evident before the end of the Great War. In Britain, ‘trench slang’ quickly moved from the front to the newspapers in 1914, and later featured in compilations and early dictionaries from 1916 concurrent with the growth of the citizen armies, who adoPted a mix of slang derived from India and the colonies, mixed with the new slang of the trenches. In Germany, there is evidence to suggest that soldier slang derived from the mass Professional armies of the 19th century – but without the colonial flavour of the British. Interest in German slang at home was less Pervasive in PoPular circles, though much studied by Philologists. This paper compares British and German trench slang as a first steP in a deePer study of the topic, and focuses on concepts of friends and enemies, of Heimat and ‘Blighty’, and of the nature of the artillery war on the Western Front. The war between ‘Fritz’ and ‘Tommy’ – resPectively German and British soldiers1 commenced once the British ExPeditionary Force, landing in France in early August, took up its pre-determined Position in the line in suPPort of the French. From this Point on, the armies of both nations would develoP their own soldiers’ speech – Soldatensprache or ‘trench slang’ – that would be continuously shaped through four years of war. It is interesting to compare the nature of these languages, of their differences, their similarities, and their emergence through the shared exPerience of the war.
