Rupert Brooke and the Growth of Commercial Patriotism in Great Britain, 1914-1918
Miller’s article integrates primary research into archival material along with a variety of media (books, magazines, newspapers, photographs and music), and engages with literary, cultural and media historical disciplines. As a result of this cross-disciplinary approach Miller was invited to present drafts of the paper to military historians concerned with issues of morale and motivation at The United States Naval Academy, Annapolis in August 2007 and at the Military History Seminar, Oxford in January 2008. Research for the article was undertaken as part of Miller’s DPhil thesis (awarded 2009), supported by a competitive scholarship reviewed annually by the American Friends, Christ Church, Oxford. An abbreviated draft was selected as runner-up in Twentieth Century British History’s annual competition for Early Career Researchers, after which Miller was invited to develop the piece into a full article for additional peer review prior to publication in 2010.
