Full textAbstract:
Geographical Information System (GIS) is a very powerful technique which is used in solving different problems in various fields dealing with spatial information. It can also be used for analyzing wars and campaign. Today’
s modern armies use GIS effectively for different purposes such as determining strategic points and planning attack and defense. GIS can also be used for past wars, and historical GIS includes these kinds of applications. In this study, GIS have been used for analyzing Gallipoli Campaign in the First World War. This campaign started in February on 1915 and Allied troops left the Gallipoli Peninsula on 9th January 1916. Gallipoli Campaign have very important role in Turkish and World history. This study includes two different parts about Gallipoli Campaign. In the first part, selected battles of the campaign are analyzed with different GIS functions. Selected battles are Naval, Ariburnu, Conkbayiri, and 2nd Kirte Battles, and they are selected based on the availability of graphic and attribute data. In the second part, relationship between martyrs and locations are studied. Distributions of the number of soldiers for different criteria, such as province, district, soldier rank, death location and age are shown on maps and pie charts.

Full textAbstract:
Constructions of memory, myth and legend relating to Gallipoli have dominated the academic assumption which suggests that this dimension alone has allowed for the reawakening of the exceptional interest in the Anzac tradition; a tradition that has converged at the physical site in modern day Turkey. While these intangible constructions have waxed, waned, and re-emerged over the Twentieth Century, possessing the site to commence the construction of an Anzac Battlefield Cemetery has been ignored in academic enquiry. This significant series of events from 1916 to 1965 were indispensable to memory perpetuation and essential to the commemorative primacy that this preserved headland now enjoys. The desire to repossess, and then own in perpetuity the battlefield in order to attach the appropriate masonry adornments, is in itself unique. This dimension has not been academically scrutinised by any historian until now. Nor has the deliberate desire to construct an Anzac shrine that would someday attract pilgrims from the Antipodes been studied. Present day site-sacralisation by rite-of-passage pilgrims, thoroughly emersed in the Anzac tradition, suggests the convergence of the two dimensions is complete.
To counteract this problem of the �hegemony of the intangibles� this thesis explores primary sources, gleaned largely from archival records, then evaluates the significance of the history of �physical Gallipoli.� Thematic approaches based upon the lines of possession, preservation and pilgrimage argue that this parallel dimension has played an indispensable role in shaping the end result today. Tens of thousands Australasian travellers now flock to this preserved battlefield to encounter the actual physicality of the tradition. The battlefield cemetery, complete with botanical emblems of ownership, had been out of the reach of the very generation who had created, acquired and constructed the battlefield landscape. The New Zealand public had to be content with assorted forms of vicarious pilgrimage coupled with widespread domestic memorialisation.
New Zealand�s post-evacuation experience at Gallipoli became a story completely distinctive from that of Australia or Great Britain. The deliberately constructed Anzac Battlefield Cemetery is a unique landscape artefact that a proud but mournful generation set out to create. They eventually achieved this end by a complicated mixture of conquest, occupation, careful preservation, and commemorative ownership. These efforts were assisted by the vagaries of economic happenstance and international politics that left this remote Peninsula isolated and off-limits to human encounter. Fortuitously frozen in time, this landscape artefact, so steeped in Classical history, has emerged as one of the most sacred, and perhaps the most recognisable, geographic features associated with Australasia. Overriding these plans for shrine construction had been the stated goal of securing a reverent final resting place for those who fell during the creation of the Anzac legend in 1915. Sepulture perpetuelle became the post-evacuation catchphrase that propelled this Great War generation to go almost to the brink of war to secure the principles of this phrase. This lofty goal of permanence, by passage of time and the re-appropriation of nature, had mercifully been completed before the current �second invasion� that commenced in the 1980s. The Anzac Battlefield Cemetery is now a victim of its own very successful physical preservation.

L'intérêt principal de notre étude consiste à montrer que la norme linguistique utilisée lors de la traduction du Nouveau Testament en grec vernaculaire par Maxime de Gallipoli en 1638, constitue la base de la norme contemporaine grecque (grec démotique), malgré l'interdiction portée par les prélats de l'église orthodoxe de lire les traductions du nouveau testament en langue vernaculaire. Dans ce cadre, notre travail se divise en deux grandes parties : la première, extra-textuelle, présente l'activité polyvalente des instigateurs principaux de cette entreprise, afin de révéler le but de la réalisation de cette traduction. Ensuite, la seconde partie, strictement limitée au plan textuel (philologique), présente les techniques ainsi que les méthodes utilisées par notre traducteur à travers l'examen de certains aspects du discours néotestamentaire, tels que les différents genres littéraires (miracles, paraboles), les catégories techniques de mots (mots-clés, termes techniques et théologiques) ainsi que les divers répertoires lexicaux (emprunts lexicaux étrangers, répertoires des mots grecs relevant du Nouveau Testament).

Full textAbstract:
In a time of rapid social change pilgrimages are resurfacing as significant and visible social phenomena. Australia has historically been noted as a very secular society but in recent years there has been some scholarly attention to forms of spirituality outside of the orthodox, Church religion. In matters of national identity and commitment to place it is argued that there could be an upsurge in spirituality, in contrast to the decline of those practising formal religion. In this dissertation it is argued that two journeys undertaken by contemporary Australians can be considered true pilgrimages with spiritual dimensions and are therefore part of a growing spirituality apart from formal Church. A survey of the theological and anthropological literature about pilgrimages allowed the development of an eight-point frame of criteria that could be used as a standard against which an assessment of contemporary journeys could be made. Pilgrimage is a non-local physical journey to a historically and or mythically significant site or shrine that embodies the centre of a persons most valued ideals. These ideals may or may not be theistic but must be portrayed within the limits of the culture. The shrine casts an image of the culture and has an expert shrine custodian, but has the capacity to absorb a multiplicity of discourses. Pilgrims go to a shrine to experience the place of past events, take home spiritual traces and to model a changed or improved future. In order to apply this frame to two Australian journeys, field trips were made to the plaster image of Mary at Our Lady of Yankalilla Church in South Australia and to Gallipoli in Turkey around the Anzac Day commemorations in 2000. Participant observations and interviews with six key informants, when considered in association with the historical context and media reports, provided thick description of the behaviour at the journey destinations and insight into participants experiences, motives and understandings. Both journeys, the sacred and ostensibly secular, satisfied the frame of criteria for a pilgrimage. Furthermore they may also exemplify some features that are distinctively Australian, in that in these pilgrimages spontaneity and egalitarianism jostled against bureaucratic structures and national hierarchies.

Full textAbstract:
The First World War and the Australian Imperial Force have generated thousands of books and articles. Many studies adhere to the emphasis of C.E.W. Bean, and recount the history of the infantry or a particular infantry battalion. Others examine both the short term and long-lasting effects of the war on the Australian psyche. Some historians have acknowledged that a particular group of non-fighting combatants has been neglected, but generally, this group has been employed in dangerous and difficult pursuits. Very few historians have studied the roles of non-fighting combatants whose contribution is considered as lacklustre, such as the Australian Field Bakeries.
When I began my research, I could not understand why the Australian Field Bakeries did not play any part in the historiography of World War One. An examination of the Anzac legend revealed an emphasis on the characteristics of the Anzac, especially masculinity and heroism. I argue that the bakers employment might be considered as being situated within the womans sphere and therefore unmasculine, whilst that same employment did not offer the chance for acts of heroism. Because of an emphasis on the exciting exploits of the infantry within Anzac historiography, the Australian Field Bakeries and their role as support troops have been ignored and omitted.
Comparing demographic statistics and the war experiences, values and attitudes of the Australian Imperial Force and the bakers, I conclude that the bakers of the Australian Field Bakeries were extraordinarily similar to the men of the Australian Imperial Force. Only those experiences and statistics directly related to the two groups specific fields of employment are significantly different. I argue that specialised skills and a perceived lack of masculinity and heroism have seen the men of the Australian Field Bakeries excluded from all existing Anzac historiography.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the changing perceptions of Anzac Day in New Zealand, Australia and Turkey in the twentieth century. Changing interpretations of Anzac Day reflect social and political changes in the nations over that time.
Anzac Day is an annual commemoration which has profound significance in the Australian and New Zealand social landscape. It has undergone significant changes of meaning since it began, and may be regarded as being an example of the changeable script of memory. The thesis argues that memory and landscape intersect to influence the way commemorative gestures are interpreted. Personal and community memories are fluid, influenced by the current historical landscape. This means that each successive Anzac Day can have different connotations. The public perception of these connotations is traced for each of New Zealand, Australia and Turkey.
Anzac Day reflects the forces at work in the current historical landscape. Within that landscape it has different meanings and also functions as an arena for individual and community agency. On Anzac Day there are parades and services which constitute a public theatre where communities validate military service. Individual and communal feats are held high and an ethic or myth is placed as a model within the social fabric. Anzac Day is contested and reflects tides of opinion about war and society and the role of women. It is also the locale of quiet, personal contemplation, where central family attachments to the loved and lost and the debt owed by civilian communities to the military are expressed. Generational change has redefined its meanings and functions.
Anzac Day was shaped in a contemporary historical landscape. It reflected multi-national perspectives within British Empire and Commonwealth countries and Turkey. For Turkey the day represented a developing friendship with former foes and was couched within Onsekiz Mart Zaferi, a celebration of the Çanakkale Savaşlari 1915 victory in the Dardanelles campaign. As Anzac Day evolved, Turkey, the host country for New Zealand and Australian pilgrims, became the focus of world attention on the day. Gallipoli is now universally recognised as the international shrine for Anzac Day.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the interplay between the technology, tactics and organisation of the First AIF. Warfare in the twentieth warfare is characterised by the presence of certain technologies that give it a distinctive nature and which first appeared in the Great War. It was in the Great War that the highly dispersed form of tactics that we know today emerged. Thus, it is a natural starting point not only for the examination of warfare in the era of technology but for considering the nature of technological change itself. My Australian perspective enabled issues to be looked at to a depth that would not be possible in a work of this length with a broader view. I have argued that the Great War was characterised by the problem of trench warfare, and I have traced the progress of tactical, technological and organisational developments that ultimately supplied the solutions. I have also shown how the Great War was not only a war of technology in which new technologies were introduced and developed, but also one which saw the spread of new ways of thinking about military technology. In preparing this thesis, I have inspected the actual battlefields in France, Belgium and Turkey. I have drawn on a broad range of published material, but the thesis is largely based upon the primary documents found in the Australian War Memorial and Australian National Archives.

Full textAbstract:
Military command is the single most important factor in the conduct of warfare. To understand war and military success and failure, historians need to explore command structures and the relationships between commanders. In World War I, a new level of higher command had emerged: the corps commander. Between 1914 and 1918, the role of corps commanders and the demands placed upon them constantly changed as experiences brought illumination and insight. Yet the men who occupied these positions were sometimes unable to cope with the changing circumstances and the many significant limitations which were imposed upon them. Of the World War I corps commanders, William Birdwood was one of the longest serving. From the time of his appointment in December 1914 until May 1918, Birdwood acquired an experience of corps command which was perhaps more diverse than his contemporaries during this time. He is, then, an ideal subject for a prolonged assessment of this level of command. This thesis has two principal objectives. The first is to identify and assess those factors which limited Birdwood???s capacity and ability to command. The second is to explore the institutional constraints placed on corps commanders during the 1914-1918 war. Surprisingly, this is a comparatively barren area of research. Because very few officers spent much time as corps commanders on their way to higher command appointments and because the role of the corps commanders in military planning and in the conduct of operations was not immediately apparent, their role has been practically ignored. Historians have tended to concentrate on the Army and divisional levels creating a deficient view of higher military command in World War I. However, corps commanders could and did play an important part in planning operations and in military affairs generally. Birdwood???s experience at Gallipoli and in France reflect some of the changes to command structures that were prompted by the successes and failures of operations directed at the corps level. In as much as these two theatres of war were vastly different and Birdwood was confronted with dissimilar problems, it is possible to draw some general conclusions about the evolution of higher command after 1914. Using a wide range of primary and secondary sources located in Australian and British archives, this thesis traces Birdwood???s career as a corps commander at Gallipoli and on the Western Front. It also examines his tenure as G.O.C. of the A.I.F.

This thesis will examine the home front of Australia during the Gallipoli campaign of 1915 in order to better understand how Australians conceived of the battle. It argues that individuals within the office of the prime minister self-consciously interpreted the battle in an attempt to establish a uniform national identity that was separate from British imperialism. It also argues that the campaign reinforced prewar gender roles for men and women. Historians have largely ignored the Australian home front during World War I and the immediate postwar period, focusing instead on how Gallipoli has been memorialized over time or on traditional military aspects of the campaign. Analyzing such themes as gender, identity, and race brings questions of citizenship and male and female gender roles into a perspective not yet adequately explored in historical literature. Applying these perspectives to the subject of Australia and Gallipoli, helps us to understand that the campaign was far more than merely a military engagement. It was a social experience that enabled the executive powers of the Australian government the ability to formulate a national identity and restructure society into the image it desired.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis re-examines and reconstructs the Anzac Landing at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915 by applying a new approach to an old topic - it uses the records of a single battalion over a single day to create a body of evidence with which to construct a history of the battle. This focus on the battle's participants might be expected to shed light only their immediate experience, but it also creates a profile of the fighting on this day. This is in part due to the methodology developed to assess and compile accounts, but also to the fact that the chosen battalion, the 11th Battalion, 3rd Infantry Brigade, 1st Division, Australian Imperial Force, landed with the covering force for the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, and its members fought from Fisherman's Hut to 400 Plateau, on Third Ridge and Battleship Hill. This study therefore places much of the battlefield under the microscope. The use of veterans' accounts to re-tell the story of the Landing is not new. Anecdotes are often layered over the known history, established in C.E.W. Bean's Official History of Australia in the War, The Story of ANZAC, Volume I, to colour narrative and connect with personal experience. Less frequently are they reliably used as historical evidence. In this thesis, letters, diaries, memoirs, manuscripts, photographs, maps, diagrams and other information, collected from private collections, libraries, museums, archives and period newspapers, the battlefield and many secondary sources, are used as evidence to construct events, chronologies and frames of reference in order to reconstruct the history of the day. This thesis will argue that eye witness testimony can be extremely unreliable when taken in isolation, but when verified, contextualised and validated by a thorough and robust methodology, can provide valuable information with which to re-examine some of the battle's significant events and outstanding questions. Why did the advance stop? Why was the high ground not taken? Why do the accounts of the adversaries of the best known clash of the day not match? The missing evidence may lie in the smallest of fragments - not in isolation, but when examined in aggregate. This shift in the way evidence is collected and analysed leads to a shift in the way the battle is interpreted. The Landing has not previously been studied at this level of detail. Bean amalgamated the disparate and confused accounts of that day into a canvas; this thesis digs deeper into the foundation data to analyse, verify, add to and reconstruct the day. It builds on and complements Bean's work, confirming and enriching some aspects of his account, filling gaps, and, in some aspects, potentially re-writing the history of the Landing. There has been much rhetoric over the years and many myths and legends surround this battle. This thesis will argue that even though nearly 100 years have passed since the Landing, and well over 1000 books written on the campaign, much can be learned by returning to the 'primary source, the soldier'.

a estenderem-se para mais uma frente de guerra e obter uma rota segura com a Rússia
através do Mar Negro, para ligar por sul os Aliados, cuja comunicação só podia fazer-se
através do estreito.
Do lado dos defensores, os Turcos, esta batalha foi uma grande vitória no aspeto
militar, que ergueu o orgulho e valor patriótico do povo turco, que eram vistos como um
oponente fraco durante o conflito mundial, subestimados pelas suas capacidades de
defender o estreito de Dardanelos. Um dos aspetos preponderantes, no resultado, seria

Considered one of the most wearing campaigns of the Great War. It involved a combination of British, French, Australian and New Zealand forces in an attempt to dominate the Dardanelles and subjugate the Ottoman Empire in order to force the German army to extend to another war front and get a safe route with Russia through the Black Sea to connect the Allies by south, the disclosure of which could only be done through the strait. On the side of the defenders, the Turks, this battle was a major victory in the military aspect, which raised the pride and patriotic value of the Turkish people, which were seen as a weak opponent during the World War, underestimated by their ability to defend the Dardanelles. One of the predominant aspects in the outcome would be that at the time the technology used on the battlefield favoured mostly the defending side.

Walking into the museum is like entering a unique space that is frozen in time. From the selection and sequencing of the objects, to the design of the exhibition hall, every detail is a deliberate, careful decision on the part of the museum, which gives new context and value to the objects; The museum itself has also transformed into an institution that needs to interact with society, a condition that will inevitably affect the museum's collection concept and strategy. Therefore, exhibition design needs to have a new method of communication that is well-developed and keeps pace with the times. With the aforementioned context in mind, this study will discuss the issue of war, a difficult topic to manage for a museum, and also how the case in this study brought about changes in historical interpretation by presenting a new look in their exhibition design. Move time backwards by a hundred years, and there one would find a turbulent period in modern history. The First World War was sparked by long-term disputes in Europe. The Allies, led by Britain and France, wanted to control passage through the Dardanelles and to cut off the Ottoman Empire’s supply line and capture Istanbul. Australia and New Zealand became needlessly entangled in the cruel and ruthless war, even though they were far away in the South Pacific. The Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) were ordered to join what was the largest landing operation at the time — the Battle of Gallipoli. In 2015, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa planned and implemented a strategy for collaborative creation with external parties. It joined forces with the famous Weta Workshop for the exhibition — Gallipoli: The Scale of Our War. It has become the most popular exhibition in the history of the museum. This study will use this special exhibition as an example, through the research methods of display observation and analysis, written data and archive research, semi-structured interview and E-mail interview, to explore how the Gallipoli campaign influenced New Zealand in such a significant way that the government of New Zealand was willing to sponsor the special exhibition. Then it will explore the influence on the museum exhibition of the collaborative mode between a museum and a movie workshop as well as how the narrative text of exhibitions and the movie narrative were used in the exhibition design. Finally, the study will focus on how a new-style exhibition allowed the visitors to accept the serious topic of war while raising resonance. The study brings forth 3 research findings: 1. The sense of identity of the people of New Zealand exudes from the war experiences of many soldiers. Numerous battles cost a price of high casualties while raising the patriot awareness of the people. This viewpoint was recognized by the general public at the end of the 20th century. The society of New Zealand today has been shaped by the experiences of the Gallipoli campaign. 2. The exhibition design incorporated the movie production methods, such as actor auditioning, character dubbing, specific incidental music, and vivid large-scale and miniature sculptures. A large amount of images and music served as important design elements. The exhibition title texts were written in the first-person viewpoint, aiming to bring sentimental power through the personal narrative. 3. In order to clearly state the standpoint of the museum, the exhibition avoided using the typical war commemorative emblems and beautifying war excessively so that the reality of the Gallipoli campaign and the New Zealand family history may be truthfully presented.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation is principally concerned with two myths about the experience and character of Australia's Great War soldiers central to the Anzac legend. The first is the
myth of egalitarianism; the second is the myth of the resourcefulness and initiative of Australian soldiers. It argues that neither of these is as pervasive as the legend suggests and uses the experiences of a single Australian combat unit, the 1st Battalion, to support the thesis. The relevance of each of these myths to previous and current debates about national identity is outlined in the introduction. The prevalence of these two myths in the
historiography of Australia's Great War experience through the establishment of a 'digger' stereotype is discussed in chapter one. This chapter provides the general context for the gap that exists in our understanding of these assumptions. It argues that despite increased academic attention to the study of Australia and the Great War, writers continue to invoke stereotypical (and misplaced) notions about Australian soldiers and, as a consequence,
perpetuate a distorted, albeit generally positive,

Full textAbstract:
This thesis follows the First World War generation from the Wagga
Wagga district in southern New South Wales through the late
nineteenth century to the mid-1930s. The environment in which
Wagga’s soldiers grew up, their months or years in the army and
their lives as returned men touch on the war’s most enduring
themes.
Wagga’s volunteers were the country men of AIF lore. Yet many
earned their living in the same professions and occupations as
city dwellers. While those who laboured on farms or worked as
tradesmen might have been the bush men described by
contemporaries like Charles Bean, a significant proportion of
Wagga’s soldiers were not. Many of the local men who survived
the war were profoundly affected. Some never recovered. But the
evidence also indicates the breadth of returned soldiers’
involvement in the community. As well as the unemployed, the
destitute, those who needed constant care and those who turned to
crime, there were veterans who had jobs and families and managed
to live what could be considered normal lives.
Local war veterans who succeeded in business or politics, or who
were active in community organisations, feature heavily in
Wagga’s civic record, but most of the district’s returned men
appear only fleetingly. While little of their personal and
family lives can be gleaned from these sources, this absence is
balanced by the often detailed and sometimes first-hand accounts
of individuals’ circumstances in Repatriation Department files.
Although these voluminous records are becoming better known they
have not previously been used to inform an in-depth study of a
single locale’s returned soldiers.
The Government and civic records on Wagga combine to reveal the
nuances that underlie the broader national story of the war and
the AIF. On many important themes the district’s example
suggests both the truth behind commonly accepted views and the
extent to which they obscure a more complex reality.
