Ep. 69: Homefront: l'Impero Britannico in guerra
In questo episodio ci concentriamo su come il conflitto sia stato percepito e vissuto dalle opinioni pubbliche dell'Impero Britannico. Attraverso una prospettiva britannica, indiana, africana, australiana, neozelandese, canadese, e caraibica cercheremo di comprendere come i governi abbiano costruito il loro consenso alla guerra e come l'impero più grande della storia abbia risposto alla chiamata.Seguimi su Instagram: @laguerragrande_podcastSe vuoi contribuire con una donazione sul conto PayPal: [email protected] con un abbonamento Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/libraryScritto e condotto da Andrea BassoMontaggio e audio: Andrea BassoFonti dell'episodio:Carl Benn, Mohawks on the Nile: Natives Among the Canadian Voyageurs in Egypt, 1884–1885, Dundurn, 2009Black Canadians in uniform, Government of Canada, 2026British West Indies Regiment, National Army MuseumMihir Bose, The Magic of Indian Cricket: Cricket and Society in IndiaDavid Chandler, The Oxford History of the British Army, Oxford University Press, 1996Norman Clothier, Black valour: the South African Native Labour Contingent, 1916-1918, and the sinking of the Mendi, University of Natal Press, 1987Oliver Coates, Beyond Anonymity: Nigerian Participation in World War One Commemoration: 1919–1939, The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History 53, 2025Adam Crerar, Ontario and the Great War, Canada and the First World War: Essays in Honour of Robert Craig Brown, University of Toronto Press, 2005John Davies, Nigel Jenkins, Menna Baines, Peredur Lynch, The Welsh Academy Encyclopaedia of Wales, University of Wales Press, 2008Department of Veterans' Affairs, Internment camps in Australia during World War I, DVA Anzac Portal, 2021Nándor F.
