All_Quiet_On_The_Western_Front

All Quiet On The Western Front When Erich Maria Remarque wrote All Quiet on the Western Front he meant it to be an anti-war novel. So it is not surprising that he decided to write it right at the time that the Nazis were gaining power in politics. The Nazis glorified war and wanted to recapture the feeling of war in the trenches and comradeship in all aspects of life. Remarque’s novel told a different story than that of Hitler and his Nazi Party, Remarque told of the horrors, and the lost of a generation because of the war. By 1933 the Nazis had banned Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front along with many other books that didn’t fit into the Nazi belief system. When Hitler had served in the war he had felted like it had, “provided a structured life, a sense of purpose, and close relationships that did not invade his privacy.” (Wall 16) Hitler’s idea of war was very much different that that of what Remarque wrote about. I would guess that Paul Baumer Remarque’s main character would agree that the war provided a structured life, a life were everything is structured around war, life, remarque, hitler, paul, about, novel, nazis, lost, really, different, remarque’s, purpose, front, western, sense, quiet, men, believe, wrote, wanted, wall, think, structured, soldiers, since, out, never, goes, go, germany, even, end, doesn’t, didn’t
