Jan Schmidt – författare

När kandidaten David Johannes Boström kommer som informator åt grevens unge son till slottet Tärnaholm år 1785 räknar han med en lugn sommar med mycket undervisning och studier, och lite fiolspel. Men när en av bygdens innevånare blir mördad, och en annan blir anklagad för brottet, blir sommaren allt annat än lugn. Det är inte ont om misstänkta. Kan det vara den koleriske förvaltaren, den ljuva fröken Marie-Louise eller kanske rentav offrets bror? Och vem är egentligen den mystiske mannen i blå rock? Tillsammans med den lärde doktor Lindgårdh och den kloka pigan Anna Greta, lyckas David Johannes till sist rädda en oskyldig från galgen och avslöja den verklige mördaren.

This volume deals with the multiple impacts of the First World War on societies from South Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa, usually largely overlooked by the historiography on the conflict. Due to the lesser intensity of their military involvement in the war (neutrals or latecomers), these countries or regions were considered "peripheral" as a topic of research. However, in the last two decades, the advances of global history recovered their importance as active wartime actors and that of their experiences.

This book will reconstruct some experiences and representations of the war that these societies built during and after the conflict from the prism of mediators between the war fought in the battlefields and their homes, as well as the local appropriations and resignifications of their experiences and testimonies.
