Paper Summary:

This paper is an analysis of ?All Quiet on the Western Front?. It focuses on the effects of World War I on both the soldiers and society. The author discusses how the soldiers are separated and alienated from society due to the fact that no one can truly comprehend the horrors of the war and the returning soldiers are unable to communicate with those who have not experienced it.

From the paper:

"Erich Maria Remarque?s literary breakthrough, All Quiet on the Western Front, still stands at the forefront of a host of novels on that most tragic recurrence in the history of human experience: war. It meticulously chronicles the thoughts of a soldier in World War I while simultaneously detailing the horrors of all wars. The war is seen through the eyes of Paul Baumer, the mouthpiece for Remarque's bitter critique of the ideals of patriotism and nationalism that drove nations into this catastrophe."
