On December 7, 1941, the United States Congress declared war ( Pub. L. 77–328, 55 Stat. 795) on the Empire of Japan in response to that country's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor the prior day.

Which term refers to the post-World War American authors who rejected the materialism of 1920s culture?
Bess [88]

Answer:

The correct response is Option C: The Lost Generation.

Explanation:

The Lost Generation refers to a group of American writers who came of age during the period of World War I. In the years after the war, they were a group of expatriates living in Europe for the most part, including well known figures like Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald.  Although the term is used more widely to refer to the entire generation of Americans and Europeans who grew up during WWI, the group of expatriate writers tended to use autobiographical themes that criticized the decadence and the frivolous lifestyle in the wealthy classes. Gertrude Stein was also living in Paris and established a salon where many writers would meet.
