GermanAbstract
This book focuses on poems by French frontline soldiers that address the sufferings of war. They bear witness, bring charges, and function as a medium for coping with traumatic experiences. Some of the texts examined pertain to the literary canon of the time, but the volume also considers an extensive corpus of neglected and forgotten poetic texts.
