The Author's Responsbility: Telling the Truth About War
Marc Aronson An expanded version of this article is available on Marc's website at http://www.marcaronson.com/ young_adult_books.html All wars are boyish, and are fought by boys, The champions and enthusiasts of the state Herman Melville wrote those lines in July of 1861 just as the Civil War began and his words get to the heart of what we are here to discuss today. [...]The Iliad is the ancestor of those Hollywood movies that switch to slow motion to show shells exploding and bodies flying through the air. How can you not keep reading when the king and queen can't bear to kill the child, entrust the deed to a herdsman who leaves the baby on a mountain, then finds it still living five days later, and decides with his wife to raise it in secret, taking a dog's tongue to the king and queen as evidence that the baby is dead? Which didn't mean I begged off practice. Because I didn't want to be treated any differently than anyone else, of course. [...]when I thought about it, I realized this complete lack of information made me the perfect soldier [laughter from the audience]. Because the more you know, the more questions you tend to ask, and the more questions you ask the more likely you are to say \"no\" to an order.
