Excerpt from Edinburgh Medical Journal, 1916, Vol. 16 Although the year which has just passed has not been distinguished by any great advance in medicine - unless it be reckoned an achievement that, thanks to science, millions of men have lived in camps through the seasons without being decimated by infectious disease - research has not stood still. A survey of the periodical literature of the year reveals many contrasts with 1914. The patching and mending the physically less fit no doubt goes on, but there has been less writing about it - about the surgery of the over-civilised colon, for instance, or about the diagnosis of fortuitous incurable lesions of the nervous system, or the toxic effects of eating wrongly or too much. The most prominent place in medical literature has been occupied by work designed to prevent, or repair, the ravages of war. Speaking only in the most general way, it may be said that the teaching of military surgery and medicine in previous wars has proved of comparatively small value, except as regards organisation, in the present conflict. Many of the lessons of the South African \var, in particular, have had to be unlearned. There our army was small, the rifle was the principal weapon, transport was bad, typhoid was rife, and sepsis was trifling; here the armies are immense, the weapon is the high explosive, transport is unsurpassed, typhoid has been abolished, and sepsis stands out as the great danger. It very quickly became apparent, to the surprise, we imagine, of those whose experience depended on the results of civil surgery at home, that our present methods of dealing with sepsis in war are far from effectual.

A new exploration of literary and artistic responses to WW1 from 1914 to the presentThis authoritative reference work examines literary and artistic responses to the wars upheavals across a wide range of media and genres, from poetry to pamphlets, sculpture to television documentary, and requiems to war reporting. Rather than looking at particular forms of artistic expression in isolation and focusing only on the war and inter-war period, the 26 essays collected in this volume approach artistic responses to the war from a wide variety of angles and, where appropriate, pursue their inquiry into the present day. In 6 sections, covering Literature, the Visual Arts, Music, Periodicals and Journalism, Film and Broadcasting, and Publishing and Material Culture, a wide range of original chapters from experts across literature and the arts examine what means and approaches were employed to respond to the shock of war as well as asking such key questions as how and why literary and artistic responses to the war have changed over time, and how far later works of art are responses not only to the war itself, but to earlier cultural production.Key FeaturesOffers new insights into the breadth and depth of artistic responses to WWIEstablishes links and parallels across a wide range of different media and genresEmphasises the development of responses in different fields from 1914 to the present

"A good story, well told, of a sliver of life in Richmond, a small, elite-driven capital city in the young nation's most influential state." —Publishers Weekly George Wythe clung to the mahogany banister as he inched down the staircase of his comfortable Richmond, Virginia, home. Doubled over in agony, he stumbled to the kitchen in search of help. There he found his maid, Lydia Broadnax, and his young protegé, Michael Brown, who were also writhing in distress. Hours later, when help arrived, Wythe was quick to tell anyone who would listen, "I am murdered." Over the next two weeks, as Wythe suffered a long and painful death, insults would be added to his mortal injury. I Am Murdered tells the bizarre true story of Wythe's death and the subsequent trial of his grandnephew and namesake, George Wythe Sweeney, for the crime—unquestionably the most sensational and talked-about court case of the era. Hinging on hit-and-miss forensics, the unreliability of medical autopsies, the prevalence of poisoning, race relations, slavery, and the law, Sweeney's trial serves as a window into early nineteenth-century America. Its particular focus is on Richmond, part elegant state capital and part chaotic boomtown riddled with vice, opportunism, and crime. As Wythe lay dying, his doctors insisted that he had not been poisoned, and Sweeney had the nerve to beg him for bail money. In I Am Murdered, this signer of the Declaration of Independence, mentor to Thomas Jefferson, and "Father of American Jurisprudence" finally gets the justice he deserved.
