Abstract
This paper discusses how focusing on historiography and literary analysis through the metaphor of the war horse draws upon students’ own attachment to companion animals to engage them in discussions of the “Great War” as demonstrating a shift in agricultural economies away from animal to mechanized labor, to beings as instruments rather than subjects, and to growing issues of conscience. In addition, the value of these foils for experiential learning in discussion with veterans will be presented.
