War, Violence And Post-traumatic Stress Disorder In Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-five

Résumé: Some events, throughout history, affected the world, societies and peoples in a plausible welcomed way, or in a rather disastrous manner that caused a major shift in the different aspects and sections which shaped, in return, the existence of a society singularly, or the world globally like pandemics and wars, etc... War is to be considered one of mankind’s darkest manifestations due to the dire and dreadful consequences that took place, if not before, then surely during and after. What researchers, writers and literary works in general paid attention to is the alteration that wars had on society due to the long-term aftermath of it (war); Violence and death-combatting triggered inner conflicts within soldiers to specify, and within laymen to generalise. This research paper studies the effect of war including violence and PTSD in Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-Five.
