All Quiet On The Western Front
All Quiet on the Western Front Essay One of the major themes in Remarque’s novel, All Quiet on the Western Front is comradeship. Paul, (the main character) experiences different kinds of comradeship: the comradeship of his regiment, and the comradeship of his adversaries. Paul deals with each type of comradeship differently and is changed personally by each experience. Remarque’s use of comradeship throughout the book emphasizes how Paul conceived that in the outcome of the war all people are similar and equal. Paul had many friends in his regiment, but his best friends were, Kat, Tjaden, and Kropp. These three men were there for Paul during the virtuous and wretched times. Kat, the most experienced, was the father figure to all the men. He proved to be amazing in many ways. In one scene the regiment is in a deserted town; they are tired and enter an old building to sleep, but they complain that they are hungry. Kat asked someone in the regiment, from the town, if they knew where there was any food. The man replied “No”.
