All items in this virtual exhibition are on Europeana 1914 – 1918, where we
collect World War One related materials from Cultural Institutions
and stories
from the public such as unpublished letters, photographs
and keepsakes from the war are being collected and digitised.
Digitisation nowadays plays a vital role in discovering interesting
artefacts to illustrate history and to enable transnational perspectives on historic
events. Hans Petschar, Historian and Librarian at the Austrian National Library:
“Europeana 1914-1918 permits to overcome National stereotypes and
nationalist historical views on the First World War dominating the Centenary events 2014. Looking at the fascinating individual memories from all regions and parts of Europe we can imagine the scientific potential of transnational and global views on the Great War.
