Disillusionment
what had an impact on the emergence of modernism
F. Scott Fitzgerald was not a member of the Lost Generation. Though he was closely associated with writers of the period, such as Ernest Hemingway and Gertrude Stein, he was not considered a part of the Lost Generation in the same way.
The Lost Generation was a name for the young generation of Americans who were in Europe during the First World War and returned afterward as a way to rebel against mainstream America. This generation was skeptical of authority and writers often portrayed America as a nation that made them lose hope in modern society. These writers tended to adopt influences from European cultures instead.
The term "lost generation" was coined by Gertrude Stein and popularized by Ernest Hemingway to describe a group of writers who came of age during World War I and felt disillusioned by the societal changes and destruction wrought by the war. These writers, including Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and T.S. Eliot, often focused on themes of alienation, loss, and moral uncertainty in their works, reflecting the feeling of a generation disconnected from traditional values and feeling adrift in a changing world.
