Updates from the Veterans History Project (VHP): November 10th – Commemorate the World War I Centennial at the Library of Congress

How will you commemorate the Veterans Day centennial?

On Saturday, November 10th, the Library's Poetry and Literature Center, Veterans History Project, and Exhibits Office invite you to participate in the “The Road Back,” a daylong symposium on veterans’ literature & writing.

Beginning at 10AM, the Library invites you and the veterans in your life to a tour of Echoes of the Great War: American Experiences of World War I and WWI cart display before attending the 11:00AM panel discussion, “Veterans and Literary Writing,” which explores the meaningful coping mechanisms afforded through journaling.

A 1:30PM afternoon panel will feature poetry and literature readings from poet veterans Bruce Weigl, Bill Jones, and David Richmond, as well as cowboy poet Vess Quinlan, who will discuss their favorite World War I writers, share selections of their work, and participate in a discussion moderated by Anya Creightney, Programs Manager of the Poetry and Literature Center.

Concluding the symposium will be a 3:00-4:30PM screening of the 1937 American drama war film, The Road Back, directed by James Whale and based on the novel of the same name by Erich Maria Remarque.  The film is a sequel to All Quiet on the Western Front and follows German soldiers from the Armistice through their return home as they adjust to civilian life, learning that Germany and their personal lives have changed tremendously while they were gone.

The event is free and open to the public, but due to expected demand, tickets are recommended, and available on a first-come, first-served basis.   You can RSVP for your seat at Eventbrite.com  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-road-back-veterans-and-literary-writing-symposium-tickets-48886963223 or request ADA accommodations at least five business days in advance by contacting (202) 707-6362 or ada@loc.gov.

The mission of the Veterans History Project of the Library of Congress American Folklife Center is to collect, preserve and make accessible the personal accounts of U.S. veterans so that future generations may hear directly from veterans and better understand the realities of war.
