The Special Collections and Level 4 Galleries within the Hartley Library will be hosting two private viewings on Thursday 16 October, 17:00 – 19:00.
In the Special Collections Gallery: When “the days of conquest are passed”: reflections on war and warfare
Missives sent from the front line; propaganda from the home front; literary works and memorials commemorating the fallen; calls to arms and publications advocating the end of war: the exhibition draws on the extensive holdings of the Special Collections at the University of Southampton to reflect upon war and warfare.
Open weekdays 10:00 to 16:00, 13 October -12 December 2014
In the Level 4 Gallery: ‘Mark Anstee: Enchantment of Distance’
These exhibitions form part of the University of Southampton’s Great War: Unknown War programme – a series of events, talks, workshops and conferences taking place in 2014-15 across campus, as part of the wider global WW1 commemoration. More information can be found on the John Hansard Gallery website.
