Question

You are all a lost generation." - Epigraph, The Sun Also Rises, Ernest Hemingway This quote was quickly applied to an entire group of authors and artists in what era? A) Cold War B) World War II C) Vietnam War Era D) post-World War I

Answer 1

The correct answer is D, as the term Lost Generation refers to the “survivors” of World War One. The “lost” part refers to the millions of men (and to some degree, women) who died during the Great War, and so a common theme of the arts in the Interwar period was a sense of being “lost”.
