Presentation transcript:

All Quiet on the Western Front “This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war”

What are some words that come to mind when you think of: Do-Now: What are some words that come to mind when you think of: “WAR” “SOLDIERS”

Erich Maria Remarque’s Background Born in Osnabruck, Germany in 1898 Fought for Germany during WWI at age 18 Was wounded 5 times & swallowed poison gas Suffered lung injuries

Themes/Motifs Loss of Innocence Patriotism Disillusionment Meaninglessness of deaths in war The Horror of War Shared Humanity: (good guys <-> bad guys)

Critical Thinking: If you were on the frontline, would you view your enemy as a person with feelings, or just an evil force staring you in the face? Would you feel bad if something were to happen to your enemy? Does the enemy deserve compassion too?

An Alternative Viewpoint Remarque’s novel shows German viewpoint during WWI Does NOT glorify war Remarque shows war’s dark side and condemns it Novel and film banned by Hitler in 1933 Novel gives Americans insight into German soldier’s mind
