Vielen Dank an Prof. Dr. Oliver Janz und alle Teilnehmer des Forschungskolloquiums zur Neueren Geschichte für den spannenden und bereichernden Austausch über mein neues Postdoc Projekt ! @FU_Berlin @19141918online
Wonderful to see our collection on 'Humanitarianism and the Greater War' out after many years of work! A huge thank you to all the amazing contributors including @MariaInesTato @AnaPPirex @Ced_Cotter @hsirisamot @KALowe_PhD🥳
Out today - 'Humanitarianism and the Greater War, 1914-24' offers fresh perspectives on the history of humanitarianism and its impact on domestic and international politics in the era of the Great War. Find out more: manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526173249 #WWI #LeagueofNations #RedCross
thought I'd made a pretty bad factual error in my thesis as a secondary source contradicted something I'd asserted for the bulk of a chapter, but @19141918online came to my rescue again - not just that it confirmed I was correct but that it was easy and quick to check.
Krieg dem Kriege! is the only book I have used in teaching where I habitually provide students a content warning. Still has the power to shock.
#DYK that #100yrsago today, Ernst Friedrich founded the first anti-war museum? It opened 2yrs later, showing disturbing war photos with captions in 4 languages. Friedrich left Germany in 1933. His grandson re-opened the museum in 1982. S. Brandt: encyclopedia.1914-1918-online.net/article/friedr…
Hear, hear - all hail @FHeimburger and her tireless work to make #FWW scholarship accessible to wider audiences! (And please do go check out @19141918online and @FWWbib if you are interested in anything #FWW related, if you haven't already.)
The crucial one in our case is @zotero. I am very proud that nearly 12 years on this project continues to grow and be useful and I also have a few plans up my sleeve to expand it in the coming years and make it easier to use, in particular for students coming into the field.
I like to think of our bibliography of the kind of useful digital initiative which doesn't require millions of infrastructure funding, but which makes life easier for the academic community it serves. None of this would be possible if it weren't for open-source tools.
New additions come mainly from a small group of Society members who follow new publications in the field closely, but over the years we have also been able to integrate larger additions, most importantly in collaboration with @19141918online
I've spoken about the process, the choice of categories etc. on several occasions, one in 2013 canal-u.tv/chaines/univer… and one in 2016) webtv.univ-lille.fr/video/8665/his… (both in French)
I started by setting up the @zotero group library which we still use and which is available to all here zotero.org/groups/55813/f… Zotero users can join the group and access the up-to-date content from their own installation.
We didn't have that kind of financial scope, but I reckoned our international membership and a few open-source tools could make us a useful hub for the ever-increasing number of publications in our field.
In 2011, at a dinner during the Society conference in Innsbruck, I was chatting with @pierrepurseigle and @JennyMacleod. We were idly wondering what the Society could contribute to the upcoming centenary, while other richer institutions were planning for large-scale digitizations
@CJAPieters @19141918online It is also a transformative resource for undergraduate student teaching- absolutely invaluable during lockdown.
If you're researching the First World War or covering it in any way, @19141918online is just such an incredible resource. It sounds obvious but it's just so good! Every time I struggle with finding secondary references and go there, it's enormously helpful
March is #WomensHistoryMonth, a celebration of the contributions women have made to history in a variety of fields. This year I will celebrate the courageous women journalists who reported on the #FirstWorldWar. Women from different nations covered the war on the major fronts /1
as the book was in German, I later published the most important findings - at least in my opinion - in English article academia.edu/33941293/A_Mic…
as for open access - there is a really brief overview about this topic here @19141918online encyclopedia.1914-1918-online.net/article/sanjak…
Happy Birthday - my Sanjak book is 10 years old ❤️ Unfortunately it got lost in the First World War centenary wave that started in that year - meaning - it never got a lot of attention :-( I have uploaded at least the submitted version on academia : academia.edu/34146942/%C3%9…
