Legacies of War 1914-18/2014-18

利兹大学的战争遗产百年纪念项目由对第一次世界大战不同方面有研究兴趣的学者运营，他们希望在第一次世界大战100周年之际广泛分享他们的知识。该项目的研究和活动围绕五个主题展开：约克郡与第一次世界大战、文化与艺术、科学与技术、战争与医学、战争与抵抗。2014-18年，也就是当时被称为“一战”的百年纪念，将是一个反思和辩论战争期间发生的事情及其深远和长期后果的时刻。战争遗产团队是帝国战争博物馆全国百年纪念活动的注册合作伙伴。作为战争遗产项目的一部分，该团队旨在发起、参与并帮助协调和宣传2014-18年在利兹/布拉德福德地区举行的一系列活动。该团队希望在剧院、电影院、博物馆、美术馆、社区场所、学校、公共场所和大学让公众参与第一次世界大战。共享活动将纪念和探索第一次世界大战的不同历史，并将研究其多重历史、文化和社会遗产。这一应用于社区遗产研究计划的主要目的是使项目团队能够建立新的伙伴关系，并加强与利兹和约克郡不同文化背景的社区团体和组织的现有伙伴关系，有兴趣开展侧重于第一次世界大战纪念活动的遗产活动。我们希望鼓励社区参与大学档案馆和场馆，与利益攸关方一起制定项目，将工作人员、学生和社区聚集在一起，并创建一个可在百年后保留的无障碍材料储存库。我们还希望将那些认为自己的遗产与这一历史事件无关的社区团体介绍到第一次世界大战的国际和跨国背景、经历的多样性以及无处不在的文化、社会和技术遗产中，以扩大其对学术和非学术受众的意义。我们的总体愿望是促进以创新、跨文化和代际方式纪念第一次世界大战。

The Legacies of War Centenary Project at the University of Leeds is run by academics who have research interests in different aspects of the First World War and wish to share their knowledge widely during the years of the 100th anniversary of the War. The project's research and activities are structured around five thematic strands: Yorkshire and the Great War, Culture and the Arts, Science and Technology, War and Medicine and War and Resistance. The 2014-18 Centenary of what was referred to at the time as the 'Great War' will be a time for reflection and debate about what happened during the war and what its profound and long-term consequences were. The Legacies of War team is a registered partner of the Imperial War Museum's national Centenary activities. As part of the Legacies of War project, the team aims to initiate, participate in, and help to coordinate and publicise a series of events and activities that will take place across the Leeds/Bradford area in 2014-18. The team wants to engage the public with the First World War in theatres, cinemas, museums, galleries, community venues, schools, public spaces and at the University. Shared events will commemorate and explore different histories of the First World War, and will examine its multiple historical, cultural and social legacies.The primary aim of this application to the Research for Community Heritage scheme is to enable the project team to build new and to strengthen existing partnerships with culturally diverse community groups and organisations in Leeds and Yorkshire with an interest in developing heritage activities focused on an aspect of First World War commemoration. We wish to encourage community engagement with University archives and venues, to develop projects with stakeholders, bring together staff, students and communities and to create an accessible repository of materials that would be maintained beyond the Centenary period. We also hope to introduce community groups who do not feel their heritage is connected to this historical event to the international and transnational context, diversity of experience, and ever-present cultural, social and technological legacies of the First World War in order to broaden its meaning for academic and non-academic audiences. It is our overall aspiration to facilitate an innovative, cross-cultural and intergenerational approach to the commemoration of the First World War.
