Teaching War and Peace<\/h4>\n

One of the things I am most proud of is the course I developed while at the University of Adelaide on "Responses to War" which was what I called "an intellectural history of war" which looked at the impact which the experience of war had on novelists, poets, artists, musicians, and filmmakers, as well as political and economic theorists. I taught it in various versions (chronological and\/or thematic) for 10 years with some success. Here is some material to do with the course:<\/p>\n
