A global survey of the First World War (1914-1918). We examine the campaigns and the cultures of warówith emphasis upon strategies, operations, tactics, and generalship. In addition, we study the ordinary soldier and civilian, as well as the home fronts. The course challenges students to reflect on whether the war created modernity or modernity created the war.
