First World War historiography M1

 This week in our seminar I got to the end of the question of the historiography of the First World War, which I hope gave you ideas about historiography in general. Next week I will be looking at commemoration. 

Last year during the closure of the university, I did these classes on video, and they may be useful to you for revision purposes. My YouTube channel is the place to browse, here https://youtube.com/c/JohnMullenTheHistoryFellow 

The videos are by no means identical to the classes you followed, although they follow generally the same topic.

We watched extracts from two historians’ lectures in class. The full videos can be found at these links:
