Abstract

With their works, Käthe Kollwitz and Romain Rolland commemorate the dead of the First World War in artistically different ways, but share the same pacifist attitude. Based on Kollwitz’s autobiographical works and Rolland’s fictional novel, the article shows how individual mourning can turn into a pacifist motivated collective remembrance of the dead.
