description |
The text deals with the significance of the life of Clara Immerwahr as a
symbol in understanding the devastating impact of the use of chemical
weapons in World War I. With the use of these weapons, an accelerated arms
race began as part of the basic strategy of modern warfare and the creation
of a “triumvirate” between economy, war and capitalism, which continues to
this day with catastrophic consequences and the spread of war and
environmental hotspots around the world. Clara Immerwahr symbolizes the
irreplaceability of humanity as a factor in the appreciation of any great
historical act and the significance of any invention or progress. The text
also addresses the impact of war on women's emancipation at the beginning of
the 20th century. |
