    Landscapes of Glory and Grief: Representations of the Italian Front and its Topography in the Art of Stephanie Hollenstein and Albin Egger-Lienz, and the Poetry of Gustav Heinse By Francesca Roe A dissertation submitted to the University of Bristol in accordance with the requirements for award of the degree of MPhil in the Faculty of Arts, School of Modern Languages (German), August 2014. Supervised by Professor Robert Vilain and Doctor Steffan Davies Student Number: 1346104 25,000 Words 1. Historicist Idealism and Regional Identities: The Outbreak of War in Austria- Hungary In August 1914, the Berlin dramatist and critic Julius Bab and the Prague Germanist Adolf von Hauffen conducted independent analyses of German-language newspapers, magazines and pamphlets, and both concluded that an astonishing 50,000 pro-war poems were published daily in that month alone.1 Although it is difficult to state with certainty whether the researchers included Austro-Hungarian publications in their estimations (it would have been unusual for the conservative von Hauffen to have ignored the material published in his homeland), a brief survey of the poetry produced in the Dual Monarchy2 confirms that its German-speaking population experienced a ‘Kriegsbegeisterung’ just as profound as that of their German counterparts, a vociferous enthusiasm for war that affected individuals from all classes, generations and professions, and led to a remarkable outpouring of propagandist art and literature across the Habsburg Empire. 1 Klaus Zelewitz, ‘Deutschböhmische Dichter und der Erste Weltkrieg’, in Österreich und der Große Krieg 1914-1918.

  • December 1916: Deadly Wartime Weather
    OESCHGER CENTRE CLIMATE CHANGE RESEARCH Funded by the Framework Programme of the European Union December 1916: Deadly Wartime Weather One of the worst meteorological disasters in history took place in the southeastern Alps during the infamous winter of 1916 / 17. Avalanches following a massive snowfall event killed thousands of soldiers as well as civilians. Novel insight into the event arises from a detailed reconstruction based on weather forecast models and shows the potential of combining numerical techniques with historical documents. This helps to better understand worst-case weather events in the past and future and their societal impacts. A century ago, Europe was in the midst of World War I. On from the Mediterranean brought intense precipitation and a rise the Italian front, the Austro-Hungarian and Italian armies faced of snow level, causing countless avalanches across the region each other on some of the harshest battlefields in history – on (see Box 2: Avalanches on the front). The number of human the summits of the southeastern Alps (Box 1: The Italian front). casualties was unprecedented for this kind of natural event.

Easily one of the best books I will read this year. In order to protect their soldiers from enemy fire and the hostile alpine environment, both Austro-Hungarian and Italian military engineers constructed fighting tunnels which offered a degree of cover and allowed better logistics support. On 31 October, the whole front began to collapse and the Italian Army launched a full scale attack. Best Selling in Nonfiction See all.

  • The Russian Revolution
    The Great War “In Flanders Fields” was written in 1915 by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, a 42-year-old physician in the Canadian Expeditionary Force. His friend Alexis Helmer was killed on May 2, 1915, in the second battle of Ypres, in the Flanders region of Belgium. McCrae himself performed the burial service that same day; noticing how quickly poppies tended to grow around the graves of those killed at Ypres, he was inspired to write the poem. “In Flanders Fields” became one of the most popular verses of its day and was put to a great many wartime uses, like this Canadian victory-bond poster. McCrae became seriously ill in January 1918, and died soon afterward at a military hospital in France. In Flanders Fields From In Flanders Fields and Other Poems (1919), by Lt. Col. John McCrae, MD (1872–1918). In the background is a copy of the poem written in longhand and signed by McCrae.
