Known for his anti-war views, zweig made it his mission to spread these views throughout world war i. the author, who attaches great importance to the identity of a european and a "citizen of the world", has greatly worried about the disappearance of the values of the "old world" destroyed by the war in his works. the main character of obligation, the painter ferdinand, also fled to switzerland to avoid being drafted during the war. one day, when he is invited to the consulate to determine his eligibility for military service, he feels compelled to go despite his wife's suggestions not to betray his non-violent stance. his sense of duty is torn between his anti-war sentiments and his love for his wife. although ferdinand does not have "a homeland beyond humanity", he thinks that he will not be able to break the "chain that strangles twenty million people"... This publication is ideal for readers seeking insightful and educational content. Prepared by experienced authors and printed with high-quality materials.
