SUMMARY:The Great War:  How World War I Shaped the Modern World
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an exclusive four-part series with Professor Stephen M. Berk as we delve into the transformative impact of World War I—The Great War. This seminal event of the 20th century reshaped nations\, ideologies\, and societies\, influencing everything from the rise of Lenin\, Mussolini\, and Hitler to the global movements for decolonization\, women’s rights\, and American isolationism. Each session will focus on a pivotal aspect of the war: on February 2\, we explore The Kaiser\, Pervasive Fear\, and National Interest\, leading to the Battle of the Marne; on February 9\, Verdun and the Somme\, battles that epitomize the horror of war; on February 16\, Lenin Comes to Power and the Yanks Are Coming\, revealing the revolutionary changes and American involvement; and on February 23\, Germany Rolls the Dice\, examining the diplomacy of war and peace. A distinguished historian and TBS’s 2017 Scholar-in-Residence\, Professor Berk brings unparalleled insight and expertise to this exploration of history that continues to shape our world.
