can literature during the world war ii. methods used during analysis are descriptive method and comparative method. the theoretical value of the course paper is of this research lies in its usage for future scientific writings on the given topic: articles, thesis, essays, etc. the course paper includes introduction, main body, conclusion and list of references. the main part includes the information about james jones and his literary woks during wwii. the james jones has been under growing attack from critics, most notably academics, who label him a "war novelist" who uses archaic naturalistic methods. although ihab hassan's 1961 analysis of post-world war ii american fiction, radical innocence, includes a lengthy and largely positive discussion of from here to eternity, two significant later studies of the contemporary american novel, tony tanner's city of words and josephine hendin's vulnerable people, completely ignore jones. this disregard is caused, in part, by erroneous …

young lions by irwin shaw and the naked and the dead by norman mailer both included realistic depictions of conflict, but mailer's work also explored fascist ideology and a military mind preoccupied with power. in his ambitious trilogy (from here to eternity (1951), the thin red line (1962), and whistle (1978), james jones recorded the human cost of the war by gathering an astounding amount of meticulous detail and focusing on loners who refused to submit to military discipline. the bombing of hiroshima and the genuine threat of human annihilation profoundly affected younger novelists, who found the realism conventions inadequate for handling the war's nightmare ramifications. joseph heller parodied the military mindset in catch-22 (1961) while also adding elements of kafkaesque terror and surreal dark humor. closing time, the sequel from 1994, was a memorial to the post-world war ii generation. in slaughterhouse-five (1969), kurt vonnegut, jr., used grim imagination …
