Analyzing WWI Propaganda

What is Propaganda?

Propaganda Definition = one-sided information for the purpose of getting the public to support a cause. Often used during the times of war. Purpose = to make people join the military conserve resources (ration) buy war bonds (loans to gov.) love your country/hate the enemy. Results = millions volunteered hatred for the enemy became popular In the US borrowed $20 Billion from its citizens through war bond sales.

How it is used Poster = cheap, easy way to get across info, even illiterate population can understand Message= facts twisted, sometimes false, appeals to emotion not logic Use of Symbolism= uses objects to represent ideas (slogan, images, myths)

Types of Propaganda Bandwagon: Persuading people to do something by letting them know others are doing it. Testimonial: Using the words of a famous person to persuade you. Transfer: Using the pictures of famous people.

Types of Propaganda Emotional Plea: Words/images that will make you feel strongly (hate, fear, guilt, love, honor, etc). Name Calling: Calling the other side names like evil, bloodthirsty, killers, butchers, etc. Glittering Generalities: Using nice words to describe about your side like hero, brave, honorable, freedom, justice, etc.

Propaganda Poster Project Propaganda was used widely before and during World War I to help “sell” the war to the citizens of both the Allies and the Central Powers. It was a strong force in the “total war” effort to convince the nation’s citizens that they were fighting on the “good”, or the “right” side.

INSTRUCTIONS You will create your own, original, 8.5 x 11, propaganda poster from the World War I period. It will be one of the following types. 1.A poster that supports the Allied, or Central powers (positive, or negative) 2.A poster to join the war effort-Either side. 3.A poster that supports the war effort by participating in some way at the home front.

Choose one of the following WWI propaganda poster topics: Buying Victory Bonds which encouraged public financial support for the war effort. Saving/Conserving Food. People were encouraged to ration and not waste their food.
