These memories, handwritten by Elmo Cermaria (Nonno Peppe) for his grandson Checco (Francesco Nicolini), tell of when, as a young man of 20, he found himself hurled into the inferno of the First World War. In those days, you could cry your heart out for a bread roll denied, then miraculously regained thanks to the compassion of a German soldier, “the hated enemy”. These recollections are terse, without a trace of rhetoric and devoid of recriminations. Nonno Peppe tells the facts just as he experienced them first hand, without expressing any condemnation of those responsible for them, even though an awareness of the large-scale massacre he witnessed transpires from his account. When Nonno Peppe delivered the manuscript to his grandson on his wedding day, he asked him to make a promise: “Let the President of the Republic know what we did for Italy.” A hundred years ago, whole generations of young Italian men were stripped of human honor and dignity. Only a few of these young men would live on and become our grandfathers; and only a few of us would be fortunate enough to become “grandchildren of the Great War” and bear witness to their ordeal.

海明威私心最愛作品 現代主義戰爭小說經典， 對戰爭的荒謬與殘暴提出控訴。 「神聖」、「榮耀」、「犧牲」…… 這些空泛的字眼，總是令我感到尷尬。 我已經許久不曾見識到真正神聖的事物； 過去充滿榮耀的一切，已不再榮耀； 而所謂的犧牲，如果只是埋葬捐軀者的屍體，其他什麼事也沒能為他們做， 那他們跟宰場裡的牲畜屍體，又有什麼兩樣？ 睽違半世紀，全新繁體中文譯本 台灣自從一九七八年宋碧雲的譯本，迄今可說已經有四十年未再有代表性譯本出現過——這裡所謂代表性，是指譯者在翻譯時並未因循苟且，參考先前譯本，因此沒有繼承以前譯者所留下來的錯誤。由此可見，我們的確需要一個新譯本，才能夠還原這部海明威經典戰爭小說的真實風貌，讓讀者更正確地理解海明威筆下的故事，還有故事背後的思想與歷史文化背景。 ※故事簡介 他來到戰場，為愛，為責任，為信念， 但愛、責任與信念卻全在戰爭中被壓碾成碎片。 第一次世界大戰方酣，美國青年亨利・佛德列克志願前往義大利戰場擔任救護車軍官，並邂逅了美麗的英國護士凱薩琳。亨利在一次砲擊中身受重傷，在大後方醫院休養時與凱薩琳重逢，並深深墜入愛河。傷癒後亨利重返前線，卻遭逢了義軍大潰敗。 憑著毅力與幸運，亨利帶領同袍好不容易安然撤離到後方，同袍卻不幸遭到友軍誤殺，而他則荒謬地被憲兵視作敵方間諜，迫使他得再次逃離。而這一次，他決心與懷有身孕的愛人相偕逃到瑞士。 但戰爭豈容樂土，殘酷的命運似乎不願意對他們收手…… 本書特色 本書譯者陳榮彬除了是譯作豐富的資深翻譯家，更是鑽研海明威研究的學者，在翻譯本書的過程中，除了爬梳自一九三九年以來《戰地春夢》歷代中譯本的優劣，並參照大量海明威專書、學術論文以及網路資料，對於書中的諸多細節如部隊名稱、地理位置、義大利語、歐戰戰史、社會脈絡⋯⋯等，均有詳實的考據，忠實且正確地還原了英文原著。 如果如費茲傑羅所推崇的：《戰地春夢》是海明威最棒的小說， 陳榮彬版《戰地春夢》，可說是近四十年來最佳的中文譯本。

From the Treaty of Versailles to the 2018 centenary and beyond, the history of the First World War has been continually written and rewritten, studied and contested, producing a rich historiography shaped by the social and cultural circumstances of its creation. Writing the Great War provides a groundbreaking survey of this vast body of work, assembling contributions on a variety of national and regional historiographies from some of the most prominent scholars in the field. By analyzing perceptions of the war in contexts ranging from Nazi Germany to India’s struggle for independence, this is an illuminating collective study of the complex interplay of memory and history.

After the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, Austria transformed itself from an empire to a small Central European country. Formerly an important player in international affairs, the new republic was quickly sidelined by the European concert of powers. The enormous losses of territory and population in Austria's post-Habsburg state of existence, however, did not result in a political, economic, cultural, and intellectual black hole. The essays in the twentieth anniversary volume of Contemporary Austrian Studies argue that the small Austrian nation found its place in the global arena of the twentieth century and made a mark both on Europe and the world. Be it Freudian psychoanalysis, the “fin-de-siècle” Vienna culture of modernism, Austro-Marxist thought, or the Austrian School of Economics, Austrian hinkers and ideas were still wielding a notable impact on the world. Alongside these cultural and intellectual dimensions, Vienna remained the Austrian capital and reasserted its strong position in Central European and international business and finance. Innovative Austrian companies are operating all over the globe. This volume also examines how the globalizing world of the twentieth century has impacted Austrian demography, society, and political life. Austria's place in the contemporary world is increasingly determined by the forces of the European integration process. European Union membership brings about convergence and a regional orientation with ramifications for Austria's global role. Austria emerges in the essays of this volume as a highly globalized country with an economy, society, and political culture deeply grounded in Europe. The globalization of Austria, it appears, turns out to be in many instances an “Europeanization”.

In works by filmmakers from Bertolucci to Spielberg, debauched images of nazi and fascist eroticism, symbols of violence and immorality, often bear an uncanny resemblance to the images and symbols once used by the fascists themselves to demarcate racial, sexual, and political others. This book exposes the "madness" inherent in such a course, which attests to the impossibility of disengaging visual and rhetorical constructions from political, ideological, and moral codes. Kriss Ravetto argues that contemporary discourses using such devices actually continue unacknowledged rhetorical, moral, and visual analogies of the past. Against postwar fictional and historical accounts of World War II in which generic images of evil characterize the nazi and the fascist, Ravetto sets the more complex approach of such filmmakers as Pier Paolo Pasolini, Liliana Cavani, and Lina Wertmuller. Her book asks us to think deeply about what it means to say that we have conquered fascism, when the aesthetics of fascism still describe and determine how we look at political figures and global events.
