He volunteered for ambulance service in Italy, was wounded and twice decorated. Out of his experiences, he wrote A Farewell to Arms. It tells us about the tragic 1ove story about a wounded American soldier with a British nurse. This work is closely related to Hemingway’s adventure, especially his suffering in World War I. He is irrevocably committed to the Lost Generation. The generation was lost in the sense that they were disillusioned with the war-wrecked world and spiritually alienated from a U.S. that seemed to be hopelessly provincial, materialistic, and emotional barren. (朱春燕2005) The spirit of the Lost Generation has great impact on Hemingway’s literature creation,such idea can be found in his novel A Farewell to Arms, especially in the image of Henry―the shadow of Hemingway. 　　War is commonly associated with glory and honor as well as courage. However in A Farewell to Arms; we get a quite different understanding of the war. The antiwar idea can be seen everywhere. First, we can get a general idea of What Henry understands the war from his self reflection of the war. Here is the passage from the novel: 　　I was always embarrassed by the words sacred, glorious, and sacrifice and the expression in vain… and I had seen nothing sacred and the things that were glorious had no glory and the sacrifices were like the stockyards at Chicago a nothing was done the meat except to bury it… (FA, 184-5) 　　Here, his antiwar attitude is illustrated very clearly in Frederic Henrys response to the war. From his response to the war, we can know that the war is just like the place, where people are killed in a great number; there is no glory and honor as well as courage, but with so many death and casualty.
