War in Literature and Reality

Book Abstract by: AcaDemon    


This paper explains that E.M. Remarque's "All Quite on the Western Front", about young German boys in the trenches of WWI
just after completing school, argues strongly against war. The author points out that United States of America entered the twentieth century as a potential super power and its participation in WWI proved its ambitions for domination in world politics; the U.S.A. was saved from the Great Depression by WWII but, in the Korean War, there was no real change of borders. The paper stresses that the ideology of terrorism and religious fundamentalism has nothing to do with political ideologies and economical basis of aggression. Table of Contents The Book: E.M.
