وصف الكتاب | The centenary of the "great war" not only inspired the memory on this "great seminal catastrophe of this century", but has also reopened the question of its interpretation and description. Within these discussions the balkans have also gained an increased importance. Following the concept of a "modern" military-history, the volume puts the "event, experiences and memory" at its center and thus seeks to integrate south-eastern europe more into the comparative picture of the "great war".
The 100th anniversary of the first world war has not only inspired memories of this "primal catastrophe" of the 20th century, but also revived apparently discussed questions of its description and interpretation. With the balkans, the area from which the war started has also gained in importance. The volume illuminates "events, experience and memory" of the war in the balkans from 1914 to 1918 and thus contributes to an even stronger integration of southeastern europe into the image of the "great war". |
