The Great War: Why "Little Belgium" Matters

Studium Generale | Lecture

In the global conflict that was the First World War, Belgium played a role that was both marginal and central. Its role was marginal because it was almost completely occupied by the German army.

This lecture analyses the specific war experience of Belgium in 1914-1918 and explains why it leads to a better understanding of the First World War overall.

This lecture links up with the World War I theme that SG and the City of Maastricht are focusing on throughout the autumn. See also: www.wo1maastricht.nl.
