The Lost Generation: Pioneers of the Modern World
The Lost Generation refers to those born between 1883 and 1900, a cohort deeply affected by World War I and the disillusionment that followed. This generation witnessed the horrors of trench warfare and the profound socio-economic changes post-war. The term ‘Lost Generation’ was popularized by author Gertrude Stein and epitomized by writers like Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald, who captured the existential angst and moral decay of the era in their works.
