Summary/Abstract: To speak of an enduring fascination with a military conflict that took place a hundred years ago would be an overstatement. It is more accurate to say that one can detect impressive institutional, scholarly and cultural efforts to perpetuate an empathetic understanding of the countless and varied human experiences in the time of the Great War, as well as an awareness of the scale of its geopolitical impact and the vastness of the social changes it brought into being, giving birth to the modern age.
