Abstract:
The Pietermaritzburg Citizens Vigilance Committee was an extra legal body which discovered disloyal persons of German extraction in the city following the riots caused by the German torpedoing of the British passenger liner Lusitania in May 1915. A public indignation meeting created the Committee and gave it a broad mandate to ferret out suspect enemy aliens. The European polity of Pietermaritzburg was essentially British; there were relatively few Germans, so the Committee worked quickly. It discovered no disloyalty, but it did discover much intimidation by so-called patriots, which it condem

Abstract:
Although the Great War of 1914-1918 has long been a popular topic for European historians, it has generally been ignored by American scholars. Consequently, few students know much about it, other than vague ideas that the "War to End All Wars" was caused by German submarines sinking the Lusitania, America "saving" France, and a League of Nations that the United States did not join. This lack of factual awareness is unfortunate since it is exactly the kind of story our citizens need to understand.

Abstract:
Less than a year after the outbreak of the Great (First World) War, the sinking of the passenger ship, RMS Lusitania on 7 May 1915 by a German submarine off the coast of Ireland and the death of 1 198 of its passengers and crew, including at least 128 from the then still neutral United States of America, led to much condemnation. In many Allied countries there also followed anti-German protests and riots, including in the Union of South Africa. On 13 May 1915, anti-German riots and the concomitant torching of German businesses took place even in Bloemfontein, where for many decades, people of

Abstract:
During the night of April 14, 1912, the RMS Titanic collided with an iceberg on her maiden voyage. Two hours and 40 minutes later she sank, resulting in the loss of 1,501 lives—more than two-thirds of her 2,207 passengers and crew. This remains one of the deadliest peacetime maritime disasters in history and by far the most famous. For social scientists, evidence about how people behaved as the Titanic sunk offers a quasi-natural field experiment to explore behavior under extreme conditions of life and death. A common assumption is that in such situations, self-interested reactions will predom

The article discusses strategies adopted in Jonas Poher Rasmussen’s feature-length animated documentary Flee (2021) for crossing the cultural and emotional distance between audiences and the refugee protagonist Amin. Focus is on a central scene in which a group of Afghans sailing across the Baltic Sea in the early 1990s encounters a cruise ship from Norway, the crew of which reports the refugees to the authorities. Juxtaposing the scene with a historical cornerstone of non-fiction animation, The Sinking of the Lusitania (1918), and drawing on theories developed within the blue humanities, I ar

Abstract:
This chapter describes how Hermann Gollancz's Rosh Hashanah sermon enunciates a powerful and principled attack on nationalistic extremism and an endorsement of the fundamental value of inclusiveness, buttressed both by the religious theme of universal divine sovereignty and by an appeal to venerable British traditions. His sermon responds not to the external threat but to an internal issue: the treatment of German-born aliens. There were two main periods of xenophobic activism in Britain during the war. The first followed the sinking of the Lusitania on 7 May 1915 with the loss of over 1,000 l

The sinking of the Lusitania and the subsequent shift in the United States from neutrality toward participation in World War I affected Charles Ives in both his music and his business as a life insurance executive. The tragedy’s effect on the insurance industry was far-reaching, and government proposals to supply insurance to soldiers were initially resisted. As an artist, Ives sided with the soldier as “everyman” in his war songs and in his use of the hymn “In the Sweet Bye and Bye” in “From Hanover Square North” and “The Things Our Fathers Loved.” Ives’s insurance firm suffered financial los

However, following the sinking of the passenger liner Lusitania, which was torpedoed by a German U-boat and resulted in the deaths of 128 Americans, and the interception of the Zimmermann telegram revealing Germany’s plan to back Mexico if that country declared war on the United States, President Wilson was forced to react.

Abstract At the beginning of August 1914 the modernist writer Hilda Doolittle learned that she was pregnant. The baby was stillborn in May 1915-killed, HD believed, by the Great War. Not long before the child was born, HD had been shocked by some bad news: the sinking of the passenger ship Lusitania, in which 1,200 civilians died. Whether medically true or not, HD’s view that the war indirectly killed her child is a significant and by no means unusual response. HD proposes a direct relationship between violent public events and the private lives of civilians during wartime; she suggests that c

Musical responses to the sinking of the Lusitania (1915)—a watershed in World War 1—appeared on both sides of the Atlantic. In Britain, Frank Bridge composed his Lament for string orchestra, dedicated to Catherine Crompton, a child who had perished along with her entire family. The piece, performed professionally in London, was written for a type of ensemble that was popular with wealthy amateur women string players. Since strings were associated with the expressivity of the human voice and were becoming understood as having therapeutic properties, Bridge’s music may be considered a “lullament

This chapter looks at the centre of the imperial internment system in the form of Great Britain. It begins by focusing upon those Germans already resident in the country who formed the bulk of those experiencing incarceration and the formation of policy towards them, which remained haphazard until the sinking of the Lusitania, which led to the decision to incarcerate all males of military age for the rest of the war. The chapter also examines those brought to Britain from the high seas, whether fishermen, those on ship journeys, or those captured in British ports. The chapter then moves on to
