Beschreibung
Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War, The Red Badge of Courage delves into the harrowing journey of 19-year-old Henry Fleming, a young recruit grappling with the concept of bravery.
Stephen Crane, through his groundbreaking and impressionistic narrative, offers an unflinching portrayal of the psychological turmoil and raw fear experienced by soldiers. Despite never having witnessed battle, Crane's conversations with veterans allowed him to craft a story renowned for its realism and depth. This novel is celebrated for its critical and detached style, addressing the unsettling truths of war and the human condition.
Through Henry's internal struggle and growth, Crane examines the essence of courage, making The Red Badge of Courage a seminal piece in American literature that profoundly reflects on the complexities of warfare and heroism.
