An Imperial War
Series:
History of Warfare, Volume: 149
Author:
Turkey and India, what do they have in common? Burcu Çevik-Compiègne brings sources from two apparently separate contexts into conversation to offer fresh insights into the Great War and its ongoing legacy from the perspective of people in two post-imperial nation states. She uses public discourses, literature, oral histories, memorials and other material as entry points into histories of writing, overwriting and erasing the shadows of an imperial war in the narratives of self and the nation. The connections and parallels between Turkey and India are traced from the war to the present and across the globe, all the way to contemporary Australia.
