In Germany this manifested itself broadly into two camps, one condemning the war outright; the other condemning the defeat. Of the former, Erich Maria Remarque's 'All Quiet on the Western Front' remains the archetypal example of an anti-war novel, and one that has become synonymous with the Great War. Yet the tremendous and enduring popularity of Remarque's work has to some extent eclipsed a plethora of other German anti-war writers, such as Hans Chlumberg, Ernst Johannsen, and Adrienne Thomas. In order to provide a more rounded view of German anti-war literature, this volume offers a selection of essays published by Brian Murdoch over the past twenty years"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a World War, 1914-1918 $z Germany $x Literature and the war. 650 0 $a German literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a War in literature. 600 10 $a Remarque, Erich Maria, $d 1898-1970. $t Im Westen nichts Neues. 830 0 $a Ashgate studies in First World War history. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219013519.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20160412010456.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FC01D332007311E6AF84DEC2DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
