The lost generation (lost generation)

A school of literature that appeared in the United States after World War I. It is not an organized group with the same program. This word comes from gertrude stein, an American woman writer who lives in Paris. She once pointed to Hemingway and others and said, "You are all a lost generation." Hemingway took this sentence as the inscription of his novel The Sun Also Rises, so "The Generation of Fans" became the name of a literary school. The similarity of the "lost generation" writers is that they hate the imperialist war, but they can't find a way out. When World War I broke out, most of them were young people around the age of 20. They were bewitched by the slogan of "saving world democracy" of the American government and went to the European battlefield with democratic ideals. They witnessed the unprecedented massacre of mankind and found that war was far from their heroic cause. The so-called "democracy", "glory" and "sacrifice" are all deceptive things. They experienced all kinds of hardships in the war and learned about the anti-war sentiment among ordinary soldiers. This left an incurable wound in their hearts. Their works reflect these thoughts and feelings. For example, john dos passos's The Three Soldiers, Love Cummings' The Huge Room, william faulkner's The Reward of Soldiers and Sartor Rees. Ernest. Hemingway is the representative writer of the "lost generation". He fought in Europe and was seriously injured. Hemingway's attitude towards war at that time, like other anti-war writers, was limited to disgust, evasion and cursing. He had no hope for a peaceful life after the war, so he felt confused and pessimistic in his works. The "lost generation" not only refers to the writers who participated in the European War, but also refers to the writers who did not participate in the war in the 1920s, but were confused and hesitant about the future, such as Scott Fitzgerald, thomas eliot and Thomas Wolff. The "fan generation" mainly flourished in the1920s; After 1930s, their creative tendencies, including Hemingway, have changed.

I found it online. . .

Let's talk about some representative works of the lost generation writers I have seen.

Hemingway won't talk about it. You can find it online. . . .

Fitzgerald's works include The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night.

Eliot's The Waste Land.

Thomas Wolfe didn't read it. . . . .

Another writer I have read is said to have the same name as Hemingway and Fitzgerald. I really don't remember the name. I'm sorry . . . .

The Grapes of Wrath mentioned upstairs is the work of American writer Steinbeck. Although he and Hemingway also belong to the same period, I personally think that his works are left-wing and have more elements of criticizing reality, so they should not be regarded as a lost generation. . . .
