In the early 20th century, World War I was the most devastating event humanity had yet experienced. New machines of war left tens of millions killed or wounded in the most grotesque of ways. The Great War remade the world's map, created new global powers, and brought forth some of the biggest problems still facing us today. But it also birthed a new art form: the horror film, made from the fears of a generation ruined by war. From Nosferatu to Frankenstein's monster and the Wolf Man, the touchstones of horror can all trace their roots to the bloodshed of the First World War.

Story0
Intimate and richly detailed, The Beauty of Living begins with E. E. Cummings's Cambridge upbringing and his relationship with his socially progressive but domestically domineering father. It follows Cummings through his undergraduate experience at Harvard, where he fell into a circle of aspiring writers including John Dos Passos, who became a lifelong friend. Steeped in classical paganism and literary Decadence, Cummings and his friends rode the explosion of Cubism, Futurism, Imagism, and other "modern" movements in the arts.

Story0
Chris Dubbs tells the fascinating stories of Edith Wharton, Nellie Bly, and more than 30 other American women who worked as war reporters. As Dubbs shows, stories by these journalists brought in women from the periphery of war and made them active participants - fully engaged and equally heroic, if bearing different burdens and making different sacrifices. Women journalists traveled from belligerent capitals to the front lines to report on the conflict. But their experiences also brought them into contact with social transformations, political unrest, labor conditions, and more.

Als der Bäckersohn Oskar Graf 1918 in München eintrifft, hat er noch kein Wort veröffentlicht - dafür aber eine Visitenkarte in der Tasche, die ihn als Schriftsteller ausweist. Was folgt? Ein Leben auf Pump, Arbeit in der Keksfabrik, Freikörperkult, Trunkenheit, Schwabinger Bohème, Flugblattaktionen. Die Zäsur: der Erste Weltkrieg. Und dann? Weiter: Liebe, Trennung, Arbeiterstreik, Gefängnis, wieder Liebe, das Buch und plötzlich: Erfolg. Mit ebendieser Rasanz und Energie erzählt Jörg Hube aus dem unglaublichen Leben des Schriftstellers Oskar Maria Graf - unbedingt hörenswert!

Famously referred to by US president Woodrow Wilson as "the war to end all wars", the First World War eclipsed all previous wars with its scale of destruction. With over 27 nations involved, the battle-field horrors and political outcomes of the first truly global military conflict had repercussions that are still felt today. NPR presents a vivid portrait of what most experts consider the first modern war, including profiles of America’s flying ace Eddie Rickenbacker, unlikely savior of war-torn Belgium Herbert Hoover, and the last surviving doughboy Frank Buckles.
