About the Book

This study explores the claim that Bertha von Suttner's anti-war novel "Die Waffen nieder " was the "-Uncle Tom's Cabin" of the peace movement, - which originated in a comment from a letter to Suttner from Leo Tolstoy. The two novels are compared on the basis of Tolstoy's theory of art, with focus on the didactic purpose and moral message of each novel. While "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is a work of moral suasion with an unabashed appeal to feeling, the analysis of militarism in "Die Waffen nieder " differs in scope and form and in its self-conscious use of sentimentality as a convention, even as its critique of social and political institutions is equally substantial."
About the Author: The Author: Regina Braker is an assistant professor of German at Eastern Oregon State College in La Grande, Oregon, where she teaches language and literature.
