A hardcover edition of the classic tale of a young soldier's harrowing experiences in the trenches, widely acclaimed as the greatest war novel of all time—featuring an Introduction by historian Norman Stone. Now a Netflix Film. When twenty-year-old Paul Bäumer and his classmates enlist in the German army during World War I, they are full of youthful enthusiam. But the world of duty, culture, and progress they had been taught to believe in shatters under the first brutal bombardment in the trenches. Through the ensuing years of horror, Paul holds fast to a single vow: to fight against the principle of hate that meaninglessly pits young men of the same generation but different uniforms against one another. Erich Maria Remarque's classic novel not only portrays in vivid detail the combatants' physical and mental trauma, but dramatizes as well the tragic detachment from civilian life felt by many upon returning home. Remarque's stated intention—“to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped shells, were destroyed by the war"—remains as powerful and relevant as ever, a century after that conflict's end." Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, Technical University of Braunschweig (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Film Studies, language: English, abstract: This Bachelor's thesis begins with theoretical chapters on the culture of remembrance (collective/cultural memory) according to Assmann, film theory and forms of representation of the First World War in films. This is followed by brief analyses of three different films (All Quiet on the Western Front 1930; Paths of Glory 1957; The Trench 2000), each of which is examined with the aid of the preceding theory. In the conclusion, this analysis is categorized and critically evaluated. First and foremost, the thesis that the same cinematic representation of the First World War since 1930 has led to our current conception of the First World War is discussed. It is also argued that the First World War was one of the reasons why the medium of film became the most popular worldwide. Diese Bachelorarbeit beginnt mit theoretischen Kapiteln zu Erinnerungskultur (Kollektives/Kulturelles Gedächtnis) nach Assmann, Filmtheorie und Darstellungsformen des Ersten Weltkriegs in Filmen. Darauf folgen kurze Analysen zu drei verschiedenen Filmen (All Quiet on the Western Front 1930; Paths of Glory 1957; The Trench 2000), die jeweils mithilfe der vorangegangenen Theorie betrachtet werden. Im Fazit wird diese Analyse eingeordnet und kritisch bewertet. In erster Linie wird die These behandelt, dass die immer gleiche filmische Darstellung des Ersten Weltkriegs seit 1930 zu unserer heutigen Vorstellung des Ersten Weltkriegs geführt hat. Zudem wird argumentiert, dass der Erste Weltkrieg einer der Gründe war, dass das Medium Film das populärste weltweit wurde.
