Analysis Of The Heat Of World War II

I believe that World War II was a continuation of World War I because of some not resolved issues. Hitler violated the Treaty of Versailles by expanding the military and invading Poland. One of the events that led to the beginning of World War 1 was: Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism; which stands for MAIN. Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia but they then joined up with Russia. After, Germany declared war on Russia which caused the war to expand. World War I ended in 1918 when Germany surrendered. It also had a great impact on European countries after it ended.

In this story she has talked about a reoccurring nightmare where she was a bat and people were trying to kill her because of the stigma with bats, “I look down at the man’s face, foreshortened and sweating, the eyes bulging and blue the mouth emitting furious noie’’(Atwood 25-29). In this quote she is explaining her nightmare and she was a bat and people were trying to kill her because bats are often not a loved animal. In another part of her article she talks about about how bats were used and mistreated during world war two. The bats were used as bombs they would be released during day time so the could go find dark places and then they would explode. This quote shows how the bats were used during world war two, “Each was to have a small incendiary device strapped onto it with a timer. The bats would have headed for darkness as is their habit. They would crawl into holes in walls, or secreted themselfe under the eaves of houses.”(Atwood 83-85). The bats had no idea what they were doing the just were trying to finding safety humans. Humans used another living breathing organism to cause pain and sorrow for fellow humans and didn't really put in any thought what they were actual

World War II is argumentatively one of the largest events in war history. World War II changed that world and everyone who lived during those six years. Many people believe that Adolf Hitler was the central cause for the war, however, it is important to understand that there are many other causes. These include: Treaty of Versailles, Fascism, Hitler and the Nazi party, the Great Depression, and appeasement. It would be extremely difficult to place blame on only one specific person or event for World War II. However, a mixture of many things can and may however hold the blame for World War II. It is crucial to understand the impact that World War II left countries throughout the world, especially since only eight countries declared neutrality during this wartime. Even though only eight countries remained neutral during WWII, it does not mean that every other country in the world was heavily involved in the world. Even countries who were not heavily involved in the war, were still effected by the war itself.

As an illustration, the author describes the scenery of the battlefield, “The most vivid images of the war show soldiers facing the hardships and terrors of battle. Some confronted the enemy in well-defined battles in the highlands. Others cut their way through the jungle, where they heard but seldom saw the enemy. Still others waded through rice paddies and searched rural villages for guerrillas… They were rarely safe. Enemy rockets and mortars could--and did--strike anywhere” (Boyer 2). By using descriptive language, the author illustrates the soldiers surroundings and evoke the reader’s sense of terror. With this in mind, this gives the readers a better understanding of how inhumane war is and how the severity of war torments soldiers by them through physiological traumatizing experiences. Furthermore, the author quotes a nurse recalling her experiences in a field hospital, “We really saw the worse of it, because the nurses never saw any of the victories...I remember one boy who was brought in missing two legs and an arm, and his eyes were bandaged. A general came in later and pinned a Purple Heart on the boy’s hospital gown, and the horror of it all was so amazing that it just took my breath away. You thought, was this supposed to be an even trade?” (Boyer 2). By using imagery, the author cites a nurse who describes the boy’s injuries in detail and appeals

This experience, above all other wartime horrors, changed the writer-to-be’s perspective on warfare and the human condition that causes it.

The Novel All Quiet On The Western Front illustrates the effects of war can be highly effective on most soldiers. In this particular novel these characters go through some many hardships and are tested to the maximum. In many ways, World War I demanded this depiction more than any war before it completely altered mankind’s conception of military conflict with its catastrophic levels of carnage and violence, its battles that lasted for months, and its gruesome new technological advancements that made killing easier and more impersonal than ever before.

Slacks and Calluses, presents the summer of 1943 from the perspective of Constance Bowman and Clara Marie Allen, two school teachers, who set aside summer vacation to help with war efforts in a bomber factory. Coming into the air craft industry, they had no idea what to expect, “We were the kind of girls who knew nothing about airplanes except that they had wings and they fly.” (p.1). Obstacles they faced included an unjust work place and harassment. Women who wore skirts and rings on their fingers received a greater amount of respect from men, than those who wore slacks and calluses on their fingers. Despite stumbling blocks, Constance and Clara worked in the factories out of a sense of patriotism.

She says: ‘With the gas and all the rest of it.’ She does not know what she is saying, she is merely anxious for me. Should I tell her how we once found three enemy trenches with their garrison all stiff as though stricken with apoplexy? against the parapet, in the dug-outs, just where they were, the men stood and lay about, with blue faces, dead.

World War II happened during the time that women wanted more rights and wanted to be able to work. So when World War II happened, it created new job opportunities and women were able and willing to work. The war was fought between two alliances that was against each other, “the opposing alliances are now referred to as ‘The Axis’ and ‘The Allies’. The Axis group consisted of Germany, Italy, and Japan. The Allies group consisted of France, Britain, the U.S., the Soviet Union, and China. World War II was especially heinous because of the genocide of Jewish people perpetrated by the Nazis.” (Diffen LLC, n.d.d). World War II is known for being a brutal and long war that involved more than thirty countries. Also, some of the important things of

Mary Ann Shaffer’s and Annie Barrows’ novel The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society offers insight into life during, and shortly after, World War II through a collection of letters between successful author Juliet Ashton and many others ranging from her publisher to a man by the name of Dawsey Adams who found a book with her address in it. Juliet describes her hardships during the war, specifically on page 25, paragraph 4, where she can be quoted saying: “Remember the night last year when you met my train to tell me my home had been bombed flat? You thought I was laughing in hysteria? I wasn’t- it was in irony-if I’d let Rob store all my books in the basement, I’d still have them, every one”. On this quotation you can see how Juliet

2. Out of all the Soviet males born in 1923, eighty percent didn’t survive WWII.

During her Christmas break, she went to visit her mother and sister. When she was walking down the street, she noticed some wounded soldiers passing her. In that very moment, school seemed completely unimportant to her, and she made her mind up to stay in Toronto and help in the hospitals (Brown, 1985, p. 13). Earhart took a Canadian Red Cross Course and became a certified nurse’s aide at Spandina Military Hospital. During her shift breaks, she would go to the flying field and watch the soldiers learn how to fly. Many of the soldiers made fun of her because she would ask them many questions, soaking in all the information she could (Brown, p. 13-14).

The bombing of Dresden from February 13 to February 15, 1945 remains one of the most controversial bombings in World War II. Located in eastern Germany, Dresden was targeted by Allied bombers during the final months World War II in the European theatre. Rationales behind the bombing remains controversial due to conflicting Allied and German viewpoints. The Allies contended that the bombing was to target industrial centers, communication hubs, and to aid Soviet troops advancing from the West. On the other hand, Germans asserted that Dresden had no major industrial hubs, and the attacked on an undefended city was a war crime.

About 3.3 billion people, that is about half of the world’s population are at risk of contracting malaria (figure 1). Every year there are 250 million cases of malaria, and nearly 1 million deaths. That amounts to 2,732 deaths per day. Out of those million people that die every year, 800,000 of them are African children under the age of 5. To control malaria three actions need to be taken: insecticides need to be used to decrease the vector population, people have to be educated as to how to prevent the vector from reproducing, and anti-malarial drugs need to be distributed. To understand the vector and what the vector is, scientists had to first discover what the parasite was and how it worked. It was not until the year 1880 that French Physician Charles Laveran discovered that Malaria was caused by a protozoan in the genus Plasmodium (Malaria, 2013)
