Laurent Vogel (This book was produced from scanned images of public domain material from the Google Books project.) "L'Allemand: souvenirs et réflexions d'un prisonnier de guerre" by Jacques Rivière is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. The work reflects Rivière's experiences and observations during his captivity in Germany during World War I, focusing on the character and qualities of the German people from a French perspective. The central theme explores the complex dynamics of French-German relations, examining the cultural and psychological contrasts that emerge in the wartime context. The opening of the book sets the stage for Rivière's introspective journey as he grapples with his emotions following his capture. He reflects on the profound complexities of his views towards Germans, analyzing their character traits and behaviors during his imprisonment. The author articulates his initial intentions about presenting a nuanced portrait of the German psyche but reveals his struggle against a backdrop of anger and resentment stemming from the war. His observations highlight the Germans' apparent lack of spontaneous emotional depth, describing their responses to the war and captivity with a curious mix of indifference and structured rigidity. In navigating these reflections, Rivière provides readers with an insight into both his internal conflicts and the broader implications of national identity during a time of war.
