Title: JM-166: Two unpopular Europeans
Summary: This cartoon shows two European men in World War I. The first man (in the top panel) is slumping his shoulders and tries to avoid attention. He is refusing to enlist the the military, unlike the other men in his country. The caption for the top panel reads, “The man who won’t enlist for his country during the war”. The second man (in the bottom panel) is proudly walking past a group of women, including women who were widowed in World War I. The bottom panel is captioned, “The man who won’t marry for his country after the war”. Instead of getting married to help begin rebuilding society, this man proudly presents himself as a bachelor. These two men are “unpopular”, because they do not conform with the sense of duty and sacrifice that was developed in Europe during and after World War I. Sacrificing oneself for one’s country was seen as an honorable and moral action during this time period. (Summary created by Mary Delano, MU History Intern, Spring 2018)
