 Serialism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The serialization of rhythm, dynamics etc developed after the Second World War by arguing that the twelve-tone music of Arnold Schoenberg and his followers of the Second Viennese School had serialized pitch, and was partly fostered by the work of Olivier Messiaen and his analysis students, including Karel Goeyvaerts and Boulez, in post-war Paris.
Serialism has been described by its practioners as an extension and formalisation of earlier methods of 'cellular' thematic and motivic unification in classical and romantic music.
While Schoenberg was concerned with the serial ordering of pitch, his student Anton Webern began to relate other aspects of music to the basic row.

 Poetry of the First World War: French Poets
Nonetheless, the more than three volumes of poetry and the many articles he wrote against the war in the period 1914-1919 remain shrouded by the poet's disavowal of all of his works written before 1925.
Granting to himself as poet the role of a wrathful preacher, Jouve inveighs his readers with images of their total depravity and ignominy.
While greed is the main cause of the war in his view, Jouve also blasts the duplicity of governments, the church, the press and other institutions, as well as the willful ignorance of "honest folk," mothers who teach their sons to love war, and even soldiers who try to perform their duty.

 serialism --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia Online Article
in music, technique that has been used in some musical compositions roughly since World War I. Strictly speaking, a serial pattern in music is merely one that repeats over and over for a significant stretch of a composition.
Total serialism,” a concept that arose in the late 1940s, attempts to organize not only the 12 pitches but also other elements such as rhythm, dynamics, register, and instrumentation into ordered sets.
In this sense, some medieval composers wrote serial music, because they made use of isorhythm, which is a distinct rhythmic pattern that repeats...

 Wilkinson, Edward Nigel (1983)
Shorter chapters on structure and rhythm show that Dallapiccola dabbled in applying numerical patterns to both parameters, but the examples which do occur fall far short of the "total serialism" favoured by some composers in the post-Second World War period.
This thesis is concerned principally with the serial works which form the major part of his mature output.
Although many of his works will be shown to be strictly conceived in serial terms, they retain an Italianate quality, which the composer described as "bellezza".

The developers set a high bar with Medieval: Total War, and wargamers have come to expect quality from their stable.
The title also aims to invigorate the "standard" later campaigns with three new playable factions, the Sicilians, Hungarians and Aragonites, new Medieval-era units, and a slew of tweaks to the Total War interface.
Viking Invasion isn't limited to the new locales and factions, however, as new units and an updated technology tree flesh out the Dark Age setting.

 Amazon.com: "One Shot": The World War II Photography of John A. Bushemi: Books: Ray E. Boomhower,James H. Madison,John A. Bushemi
World War II was a total war, so massive and complex that no one person could see through the fog-not during the years 1941-45 and still not today.
At first I thought this book dealt with the WWII overseas combat photos of John Bushemi, and even though many of them were shot overseas they do not show the horrors of war, the stark chaos of combat infantrymen fighting in an arena of death and destruction, the solemnity of the aftermath of battle.
World War II caught Bushemi (1917-44) at the start of a promising photojournalism career.

 Clausewitz and His Works
It is also important to note that Clausewitz's concept of absolute war is quite distinct from the later concept of "total war." Total war was a prescription for the actual waging of war typified by the ideas of General Erich von Ludendorff, who actually assumed control of the German war effort during World War One.
Total war in this sense involved the total subordination of politics to the war effort—an idea Clausewitz emphatically rejected—and the assumption that total victory or total defeat were the only options.
Before he left for Russia, however, he prepared an essay on war to leave with the sixteen year-old Prussian Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm (later King Friedrich Wilhelm IV, r.1840-1858), whose military tutor he had become in 1810.
