The Great War

As many historians know, the Great War was meant to be the "war to end all wars", but this was regrettably not the case. During this period, many artists and members of the literati offered their impassioned feelings about the conflict and its aftermath in the form of poetry. Created by the scholar Harry Rusche, this site was designed as a resource for courses in World War I poetry. The site contains sections such as "Poetry", "Postcards", and "Links". Visitors will want to begin their journey through the site by clicking on the "Poetry" area, where they will find digitized versions of rare poetry volumes that address various aspects of this world conflict. Specifically, they might do well to look over the "Flower of Youth: Poems in War Time" volume, which contains the poems "A Girl's Song" and "To One in Grief". The "Postcards" section offers a number of postcards created during World War I that deal with different aspects of nationalism, the military, and life on the homefront.
