The World of Yesterday

Stefan Zweig wrote a wonderful autobiography called "The World of Yesterday". This book introduces Europe at the turn of the century. It is thought that it is autobiography, but this book is like a suicide note to this talented writer. I think there are several reasons for this conclusion. I can explain that the way it is written is in the form of a will. In addition, the tone of the book is perfectly true, but it has a side of frustration.

Yesterday's world was one of the wonderful autobiography. This book has changed you. For the lost world, this is a sorrow of sorrow - in fact, I lament the two lost worlds and prosecute one-third of my anger. The writer was born in 1881 to a wealthy Jewish family in Vienna. He called it "golden age of security." He wrote that the structure of society "exists for sustainability." If life is predictable in an orderly manner, rich exist, and the rest have a more rigorous model, more equitable rights and the possibility of self improvement. Stability itself is respected. "This sense of security is an asset owned by millions of people, that is desirable, the ideal of life shared by everyone."

The broken world is a scary place. This is not a yard surrounded by a stable, safe and rich wall yesterday. Sure thing is that the world was not the garden of Eden yesterday. But it brings hope for improvement of prosperity. Whether it is the United States, Europe or Asia, this is an essential part of the postwar dream. However, the dream became shattered. Monster makers summon monsters to crawl and crawl from every crack in this broken world. Sometimes monsters are Mexican. Sometimes they are Muslims. Sometimes they are young people, old people, homosexuals, poor people. Regardless of who they are, this monster maker says: "These are not men, they are monsters, who want to know your bread, your money, taken your future? Monster Please look at what I am hungry. "

What happened and what did not happened was yesterday's news. How much are people free? Can they stay away from hot hell without looking back? Do they feel that they lose everything and are still confident in the beauty of the world? Can they know that people intentionally hurt them and still do not feel anger or indignation?
