Reflections on the Great War Tuesday 13 March 2018, 6.30-9pm, Dulwich College
The 10th GE Moore lecture marks the 100th anniversary year of the end of the Great War with reflections from Dr Nick Black, Jeremy Deller OA, David Parfitt and Nick Newman. Dr Nick Black, Head of Middle School and History Teacher at Dulwich College, will present the new website which records the lives and service of the 531 Old Alleynians who died during the conflict and opens up the wealth of material in the College archives to a wider audience. Turner Prize-winning artist and OA, Jeremy Deller (77-84) presents his modern memorial ‘We’re here because we’re here’ which marked the centenary of the start of the Battle of the Somme and captured the imagination of many throughout the country. David Parfitt, Bafta and Oscar winning film producer and Nick Newman, cartoonist and writer, speak about The Wipers Times, which tells the true and extraordinary story of the satirical newspaper created in the mud and mayhem of the Somme. A scene will be acted by College pupils.
