PART A. Heinrich von Treitschke presents a vision of a world in which war is a glorious, even a beautiful, thing. It is the ultimate expression of nationalism. Wilfred Owen’s poem Dulce et Decorum est, offers a view of the ugliness of war as seen by a World War I soldier who had actually fought in the front lines. (He died there as well. Owen did not survive the war.) He shows that the old Latin phrase, Dulce et Decorum est pro Patria mori (“It is sweet and fitting to die for one’s country”) is a lie. Woodrow Wilson’s “Fourteen Points” presents a plan for a post-war world in which nations will be able to live together in peace and harmony. The war would end in a “peace without victory” in which there would be no losers. Having learned the lessons of World War I, future wars could be avoided and all nations would be winners. Yet the Versailles Treaty, which officially ended the war with the Germans, blamed them for the war and sought to both punish and humiliate them. The dissatisfaction and anger resulting from the peace helped pave the way for the rise of Adolph Hitler, which in turn led to World War II, a war that was many times more destructive than World War I. *Compare the goals stated in Treitschke’s “Greatness of War” with those found in Wilson’s “Fourteen Points.” How do you account for the difference in their views? Explain how the other documents, Owen’s poem and the War Guilt Clause, help show how the ideals stated by Treitschke and Wilson were defeated by the reality of the war and its aftermath. Part B The Effects of War How do the causes of current conflicts compare with the causes of World War I? *Find two news articles from different parts of the world that could help you answer the question. Provide the URL and a brief summary of each article. .From newyorktimes or washingtonpost and los angeles times. (news artictle site to use) LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY PART A NEED TO BE SEPARATE FROM PART B. FOR EXEMPLE YOU DID PART A THEM POST THE WORK CITIED AND PART B AFTER YOU DONE YOU POST THE URL OF WORK CITIED. SO EVERYTHING WILL BE ORGANIZED.
