Stories, Spaces and Societies - Globalising and Localising the Great War

by Oxford University

The centenary of the First World War demands innovative and inspiring research. Based in Oxford, Globalising and Localising the Great War (GLGW) is a centre for interdisciplinary research on the conflict committed to producing such scholarship. This podcast series contains excerpts from GLGW’s second Graduate Conference, held in March 2016. Focused on ‘Stories, Spaces and Societies’, the event showcased new work by graduate students and early career researchers investigating unexplored narratives of the war, the influence of real and imagined spaces on lived experience, and the relationship between the personal, the local and the global during the war. These themes culminated in the keynote addresses, which you can listen to here.
