|||
|
All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque is a novel that colorfully illustrates the true and disturbing images of war. ... Remarque demonstrates these qualities impeccibly and gives the reader a true sense of being on the western front fighting alongside German soldiers. ... The enemy is not the Tripple Antante at all. The enemy is not even the thousands of men marching on the French front, wearing uniforms of different colors than Pauls own. ... 11) Nationalism is bursting at the seams of All Quiet on the Western Front. ... They do not necessarily believe that nationalism is the true "ism" to live by, but when they are all sent off as fresh and green young men to war, they are pretty sure it is.: But for all that we were no mutineers, no deserters, no cowards---they were very free with all these expressions. ... We were all at once terribly alone; and alone we must see it through. ... 205) While fighting on the front, Paul discovers that the war has turned young and innocent men against each other. ... 190) The most disturbing "ism" demonstrated in All Quiet on the Western Front is militarism. ... 282-283) Militarism is shown at its best and worst in All Quiet on the Western Front. ... But who can draw such a distinction when he looks at these quiet men with their childlike faces and apostles beards. ... All of his thought and concentration are focused on war. ... All of their human instincts vanish and are replaced by mechanized reactions. ... Nationalism is present in All Quiet on the Western Front, but Remarque presents it in an evil way. It goes from motivating men to fight for ones country to motivating men to destroy all man kind and the world as we know it. ... In All Quiet on the Western Front there is no other enemy but the war itself. |
