  • Parade's End is a tetralogy of novels by the British novelist and poet Ford Madox Ford, written from 1924 to 1928. The novels chronicle the life of a member of the English gentry before, during and after World War I. The setting is mainly England and the Western Front of the First World War, in which Ford had served as an officer in the Welch Regiment, a life he vividly depicts. The individual novels are Some Do Not ... (1924), No More Parades (1925), A Man Could Stand Up — (1926) and Last Post (1928). The work is a complex tale written in a modernist style ("it is as modern and modernist as they come"), which does not concentrate on detailing the experience of war. Robie Macauley, in his introduction to the Borzoi edition of 1950, described it as "by no means a simple warning as to what modern warfare is like... [but] something complex and baffling [to many contemporary readers]. There was a love story with no passionate scenes; there were trenches but no battles; there was a tragedy without a denouement." The novel is about the psychological result of the war on the participants and on society. In his introduction to the third novel, A Man Could Stand Up--, Ford wrote, "This is what the late war was like: this is how modern fighting of the organized, scientific type affects the mind". In December 2010, John N. Gray hailed the work as "possibly the greatest 20th-century novel in English", and Mary Gordon labelled it as "quite simply, the best fictional treatment of war in the history of the novel". (en)
  • Parade's End é uma tetralogia (quatro romances relacionados) do romancista e poeta inglês Ford Madox Ford publicados entre 1924 e 1928. Ele é ambientado principalmente na Inglaterra e na Frente Ocidental na Primeira Guerra Mundial, em que Ford tinha servido como oficial no Welch Regiment, uma vida vividamente retratada nos romances. Em dezembro de 2010, John N. Gray saudou a obra como "possivelmente o maior romance do século XX em inglês" e Mary Gordon rotulou como "pura e simplesmente, o melhor tratamento ficcional de guerra na história do romance". A obra é um conto complexo escrito em um estilo modernista ("é como moderno e modernista como eles vêm"), não se concentra em detalhar a experiência da guerra. Robie Macauley, em sua introdução à edição Borzoi de 1950, descreveu-o como, "não significa uma simples advertência sobre o que a guerra moderna é... [mas] algo complexo e desconcertante [para muitos leitores contemporâneos] havia uma história de amor sem cenas apaixonadas; existiam trincheiras, mas não batalhas, houve uma tragédia sem um desfecho". O romance é sobre o resultado psicológico da guerra sobre os participantes e sobre a sociedade. Em sua introdução ao terceiro romance, A Man Could Stand Up--, Ford escreveu: "Isto é o que a última guerra era como: isto é como luta moderna organizada, de tipo científica afeta a mente". (pt)
  • «Конец парада» (англ. Parade’s End) — тетралогия романов британского писателя и поэта Форда Мэдокса Форда, написанная в 1924—1928 годах. Романы — летопись жизни члена английского дворянства до, во время и после Первой мировой войны. Описывается главным образом Англия и Западный фронт из Первой мировой войны, в которой Форд служил офицером в Валлийском полку, жизнь, которую он ярко изображает. В состав тетралогии входят следующие романы: «Каждому своё» (1924), «Больше никаких парадов» (1925; в русском переводе 1928 года — «Парад лицемерия»), «Человек может встать» (1926) и «Последний пост» (1928). Основная тема книги — психологические последствия войны для участников и общества. Работа представляет собой сложную модернистскую историю, которая не содержит детальных описаний военного опыта героев. (ru)
