The Brutish World In Günter Grass’s Works

World War II as an important historical event still has an impact in many areas. Many writers see this as a theme or background, such as Ernest Hemingway, Murray Arnold.World War II makes people think about war, human being, existence and value. World War II as the fascist’s resist to the rest of the world, the whole world was seperated into two different angles and positions. Most novels based on World War II are on the side of the victims, and show the disasters the fascist did to the rest of the world. Günter Grass’ s works are clearly not in this column. As a German writer, which launched the National World War II, he focused on the domestic situation in his own country in the war when the German fascist become an everyday common state, the teen obsession in fascist and the teenager Self-Defense Forces at that time in German. This is totally different from the other works in the rest of the world.Different perspectives result in different evaluations. World War II in his writing was even more vivid and routine, a little more real and emotional, different from the tragic and bloody historical records.Concern about the entire world, the German history and every German psychology at the impact of World War II, and the wounds of war, these are what reflect in Grasse novels. When people had their eyes focused upon by the victims of fascist aggression, Grass always aimed the lens at Germany itself, aimed at the ordinary people under the power of the fascist aggression, being forced to make choices, and the permanent pain of German nation. All these novels showed different times of the German monologue. His observation and deep understanding of the German nation made all his works a distinctive charm and research value.Through the war, writers tried to show people the spiritual world of that time, or contemporary people’s presence status who lived in the shadow of World War II. German writer Grass is the case. He survived from the war and told stories about the war. As the most important writer in German, he still payed close attention to German state of being, spiritual world, the trauma and people’s reflection to the war. Grass showed how German in the war became so out of control and just let brutish nature dominate their behavior. So he directly wrote the brutish human and the animals living by instinct. The relation between human and animal became totally different in his novels. Human became the passive individuals being led and predicted. In Grass’ s Works, men had potential beast, and may at any time break out for something. Of course this ’thing’ mostly implied the thing about life in the shadow of war. Animals had more sensitive instincts, and they could sniff out of danger, and choose their own path. Such subversion showed that Grass clearly had his own unique style and insights.The objects that Grass payed attention to and described were the strange people and animals in German under the background of war. These images were different from the characters in other novels. The writer tried to endow his strange people some kind of alternative experience, a kind of brute. Also Grass drew more attention to portray animals. Animals were set to be the focus in the novels and the fuse that promote the event. Animals played a key role in the plot process. Last, the relation between animal and human was logically subversion. The animals became human’s dominate and prophetic teacher, dominate human activities. These descriptions made these novels unique charm. The overturn of the traditional relationship between man and animal, the abandon of traditional characters, the exploration of new alien presence, the search of beast in human nature, these studies are of great significance.
