With the new term upon us, the Legacies of War seminar series is about to resume. Our first talk will take place on 10th October at 5:15 in Banham Theatre, University of Leeds. Professor Anthony Fletcher will be speaking on ‘Seventeen Soldiers: Life and Death on the Western Front’. (For early modernists among you, yes, this is Professor Anthony Fletcher, formerly of the University of Essex. His new book, upon which his talk will be based, applies his expertise in the history of gender and childhood to the subject of the soldier’s experience in the First World War.)
