<br/><br/> From the 1880’s, a large set of critical texts and analyses has been produced to denounce the military service and the conditions of the draftees’ life. An important part of it derides and makes game of the military institutions. Moreover, the choice of these humorous modes seems to compel and to modify the critical reach of these texts.
