Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What do Turkey and India 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, highlighting the perspectives 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. The connections and parallels between Turkey and India are traced in the narratives of self and the nation from the war to the present and across the globe, all the way to contemporary Australia.
