The American cultural historian, literary and social critic and college professor Paul Fussell (1924-2012) is primarily noted for his famous work The Great War and Modern Memory, but he also wrote and edited 21 books on a wide variety of topics, ranging from 18th century British literature to works on World War II and sardonic critiques of American society and culture. This book offers a thorough introduction to his writings and thought, and argues for Fussell''s importance and relevancy. Covering Fussell''s traumatic experience in World War II and the important influence it had on his life and outlook, this intellectual biography puts in context Fussell''s perspectives on ethics, the human experience, war, and literature as an evaluative and critical endeavor.
