What Happens When Empires Die
This review article looks at two books, Jonathan Wrytzen’s Worldmaking in the Long Great War: How Local and Colonial Struggles Shaped the Modern Middle East and Hans-Lukas Kieser’s When Democracy Died: The Middle East’s Enduring Peace of Lausanne, and places them in the broader literature on the First World War and the end of the Ottoman Empire. It considers not only how the two books discuss the political formation of the post-Ottoman Middle Eas…

Malaria Has Spoilt It’: Malaria, Neuropsychiatric Complications, and Insanity in ex-Servicemen in Post-First World War Britain
This article focuses on the cases of two British ex-servicemen who contracted malaria during or immediately after the First World War, were charged with murder in the 1920s, and pled insanity due to their malaria and long-term neuropsychiatric complications. One was found 'guilty but insane' and committed to Broadmoor Criminal Lunatic Asylum in June 1923, while the other was convicted and hanged in July 1927. It argues that, at a time when the me…

Bid for World Power? New Research on the Outbreak of the First World War
So much has been written about the origins of the First World War, and so much of it, rightly or wrongly, has focused on Germany. Fritz Fischer’s controversial Griff nach der Weltmacht, published in November 1961, kicked off over a half century of investigation into Germany’s role in pushing the world to war. Fischer pinned blame for the July Crisis of 1914 and the worldwide war that followed it squarely on Germany’s pre-war designs for economic …

The British and Irish press and the outbreak of war with the Ottoman Empire in 1914
On November 5, 1914, after the Ottoman Navy bombarded Russian ports in the Black Sea, Britain and the Ottoman Empire were at war with each other. For the better part of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Britain had, in fact, supported the Ottoman Empire from foreign aggressors and worked hard to maintain the territorial integrity of the latter’s borders. War with Constantinople marked a considerable change in Britain’s foreign policy.…

The Finest Feats of the War? The Captures of Baghdad and Jerusalem during the First World War and Public Opinion throughout the British Empire
In March and December 1917 the British Empire won two much-needed victories in Mesopotamia and Palestine: Baghdad and Jerusalem. Both cities were steeped in biblical and oriental lore and both victories happened in a year that had been otherwise disastrous. Throughout the British Empire the press, public, and politicians debated the importance of the two successes, focusing on the effect they would have on the empire’s prestige, the Allies’ war s…

Reviewed by: The Great War and the Middle East: A Strategic Study by Rob Johnson Justin Fantauzzo The Great War and the Middle East: A Strategic Study. By Rob Johnson. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2016. The Middle East remains a deeply misunderstood part of the history of the First World War. For some, such as the Islamic State, the war in the Middle East was little more than a smokescreen to allow the West to subjugate Muslim peoples and to …

A Most Unmanly War: British Military Masculinity in Macedonia, Mesopotamia and Palestine, 1914–18
This article argues that the most severe crisis of masculinity among British and Dominion soldiers in the First World War did not take place on the Western Front. Instead, British and Dominion soldiers serving on the war's sideshows in Macedonia, Mesopotamia and Palestine believed most acutely that their manliness was in question. Unlike soldiers on the Western Front, they were not battling the main German Army, they were not fighting to liberate…
Ending Ottoman Misrule: British Soldiers, Liberal Imperialism, and the First World War in Palestine
Historians have debated whether or not the First World War in Palestine and the battle between the British-led Egyptian Expeditionary Force and the Ottoman army was considered by contemporaries as a modern, twentieth-century crusade. But did British soldiers who fought in the First World War in Palestine actually view the war as a religious crusade against the Muslim Ottoman Empire? Or did they consider it a war of liberation, conducted to free P…
