The Pity of War is the title of the event taking place this year on Friday November 8 at 6pm at the Suttie Centre on the city`s Foresterhill campus, which will also help to mark Remembrance.
The three talks this year will look at different aspects of the war, and the theme of the pity of war will be common to them all, examining the many human tragedies and hardships endured by both men and women during four years of conflict.
Professor Heys will look in detail at the Battle of Loos which was fought over a few days beginning 25 September 1915. Dr Robertson will talk about the Scottish Women`s Hospital. Mr Scotland will discuss the last 100 days of the war, which was one of the most successful periods of any British Army in any conflict, but casualties were very heavy and Mr Scotland will focus his presentation on the pity of war by using the work of various poets who fought in the war to bring home the tragedy of the conflict.
This is now the fourth year we are doing this event. We do so as an act of remembrance and of respect to all those who died in the Great War and in subsequent and current conflicts. As we approach the anniversary of the day the guns fell silent on the Western Front, we hope you will join us.
