In this revealing examination of German texts written about the First World War, Wolfgang Natter offers a new understanding of the relationship between culture and warfare. He argues that the militarization of literature between 1914 and 1918- along with changes in literary institutions, aesthetics, and cultural politics-helps explain how a military ethos in Germany remained vibrant despite defeat and led the way to another world war.
