Description
An eagerly awaited publication, this one, which brings together the contributions of internationally renowned scholars who debated at the conference of the same name held in Luserna to analyse the modern methodological paths of the discipline 'archaeology', traditionally far removed from contemporary history. This is a concrete in-depth study of the relationship between archaeology and the Great War fought on several European fronts, which takes into account the evaluation of the ethical and social aspects connected to that tragic event, in particular the new sensitivity towards the many dead and missing soldiers. An innovative scientific archaeology of the First World War, therefore, that for the centenary of the beginning of the conflict, 2014, will certainly lead to other significant developments.
