The Great War talks: The English Language and the First World War
'Languages of the front' became souvenirs of the war, abandoned by soldiers but taken up by academics, memoir writers and commentators, leaving an indelible mark on the words we use even today. First World War expert Julian Walker looks at how the conflict shaped the English language and its relationship with other languages. There will also be a book signing after the talk.
