Descriptionof Der Franktireurkrieg 1914. Untersuchungen zum Verfall einer Wissenschaft und zum Umgang mit nationalen Mythen

Did Franktireurs fight against the Germans in Belgium and northern France during World War I? This question has been answered in the negative by the majority of researchers, especially since the 2001 study by the Irish historians John Horne and Alan Kramer. Gunter Spraul examines Horne's and Kramer's argumentation on the basis of an in-depth study of the sources they used and their critical placement in their respective contexts.

In addition, the author analyses previously unused military sources. He examines general accusations against the German troops and individual incidents involving civilians, especially the events in Leuven/Löwen. It quickly becomes clear that a serious treatment of this topic is not possible without a pronounced degree of scepticism towards "official" statements by both sides. Volume 23 of the series "Geschichtswissenschaft".
