EDITORS COMMENTS
As One Possessed: A Satirical Take on the Outbreak of World War I in September 1914 This powerful and provocative cartoon, titled "As One Possessed," captures the spirit of the time as Europe was plunged into the chaos and destruction of the First World War. The image shows an ordinary German man, once content in his seat at a beer hall, now completely possessed by the devilish figure of Kaiser Wilhelm II. The devil, with his pointed tail, fiendish grin, and ears, has taken control of the man, driving him to war. The cartoon is a poignant commentary on the idea that the ordinary German people were not the instigators of the conflict but were instead being manipulated by their leader. The sword and bomb in the devil's hands represent the devastating impact of the war, which was about to engulf Europe. The cartoon's use of satire and caricature was a common tool during this period, used to express political and social commentary in a humorous and memorable way. The image of Kaiser Wilhelm II as a devilish figure was a popular one during the war, reflecting the growing anti-German sentiment in Europe. The cartoon is a reminder of the complex and often misunderstood history of the First World War, and the ways in which it was perceived and represented at the time. It also serves as a reminder of the human cost of war and the ways in which political leaders can manipulate and mislead their people. This print is a valuable historical document, offering insight into the attitudes and perceptions of the time, and a reminder of the importance of critical thinking and skepticism in the face of political propaganda.
