Download or read book Harry Clarke s War written by Marguerite Helmers and published by Irish Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ireland’s Memorial Records, 1914-1918 contain the names of 49,435 enlisted men who were killed in the First World War. Commissioned in 1919 by the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland and published in 100 eight-volume sets, the Records are notable for stunning and elaborate page decorations by celebrated Irish illustrator Harry Clarke. Drawing from published and unpublished sources, Marguerite Helmers’ ground-breaking study provides a fascinating insight into the work of Harry Clarke as an extraordinary war artist and examines the process that led to the Records being commissioned through to the eventual placement of the Records within the Irish National War Memorial at Islandbridge, Dublin. With Harry Clarke’s illustrations taking center stage in the story, the Records and their genesis are of vital importance to our understanding of how art and commemoration can come together in a powerful visual creation.

Book excerpt: Two previously unknown factors ensured that the Great War s disastrous effects were evenly spread throughout the land: the introduction of conscription and the gradual onset of war by attrition. If the old, professional, regular army was shattered at Ypres and the willing volunteers of Kitchener s new armies destroyed on the Somme, it was these two factors which ensured that the flow of casualties continued undiminished throughout the remaining years of the war on a scale never matched before or since. In the early months of fervent patriotism and enthusiasm when young men queued to join up in the fear that it would all be over before they could have a chance to come face to face with the enemy, the concept of a roll of honour which would give biographical details with portraits of all those who had fallen in the service of their country was obviously thought to be a publishing possibility. The later disasters of 1916 and 1917 would prove that it was not. Nevertheless, the ROLL OF HONOUR is an amazing record and a tribute to the persistence of those who compiled it as well as to those whose names it contains. Published in five parts, this immense undertaking is now reprinted. Its 1,400+ pages contain the biographies of well over 25,000 men of the army, navy and air force who gave their lives, nearly 7,000 of the entries being accompanied by a photograph. Naturally, in a work of this kind, the length and style of the entries is varied and, where official sources have been used, the detail is restricted to the man s regiment and place and date of death. Where the family has provided the background, however, the entries are much more detailed and, in the case of both officers and men, often cover a number of column inches to give a real biographical account. This work was designed as a tribute and a memorial but the passage of time has made it much more than that. Here, in an age when interest in the family and its history is on the increase, the photographs and biographies of many of our grandfathers and great grandfathers killed in the Great War are made available to their descendants. The opportunity to acquire this important archive will be of interest to genealogists, librarians, family and military historians, medal collectors and many others with an interest in the men who failed to return to their families in 1919.

Book excerpt: The Great War was the first 'Total War'; a war in which human and material resources were pitched into a life-and-death struggle on a colossal scale. British citizens fought on both the Battle Fronts and on the Home Front, on the killing fields of France and Flanders as well as in the industrial workshops of 'Blighty'. Men, women and children all played their part in an unprecedented mobilisation of a nation at war. Unlike much of the traditional literature on the Great War, with its understandable fascination with the terrible experiences of 'Tommy in the Trenches', Roll of Honour shifts our gaze. It focuses on how the Great War was experienced by other key participants, namely those communities involved in 'schooling' the nation's children. It emphasises the need to examine the 'myriad faces of war', rather than traditional stereotypes, if we are to gain a deeper understanding of personal agency and decision making in times of conflict and upheaval. The dramatis personae in Roll of Honour include Head Teachers and Governors charged by the Government with mobilising their 'troops'; school masters, whose enlistment, conscription or conscientious objection to military service changed lives and career paths; the 'temporary' school mistresses who sought to demonstrate their 'interchangeability' in male dominated institutions; the school alumni who thought of school whilst knee-deep in mud; and finally, of course, the school children themselves, whose 'campaigns' added vital resources to the war economy. These 'myriad faces' existed in all types of British school, from the elite Public Schools to the elementary schools designed for the country's poorest waifs and strays. This powerful account of the Great War will be of interest to general readers as well as historians of military campaigns, education and British society.
