wartime experiences to illustrate the harsh realities of war and its impact on individuals. He has used
enjambment to create a conversational tone, but each phrase strikes the reader while being part of a
list to reinforce how many injuries there were. We arrived at the camps and we were totally shocked
we would never. Loss is a main theme in both poems. Although they are dissimilar losses as they are
from different points of view, both poems affect the listener by the experiences these two victims go
through and the way the poets suggest there experiences. He uses words that will shock you and
leave you with a sick feeling. A striking piece of war realism, the poem also tunnels into his private
medical history. Owen continues the stanza with a man who did not get his gas masks on. The use of
“boys” in the first line quickly shows the reader that it is youths being described in this poem,
another transformation from the first verse, which suggests otherwise. The poem ?Dulce et Decorum
Est? (Dulce) and ?Anthem for Doomed Youth? (Anthem) by war poet Wilfred Owen, conveys the
dehumanisation of man through war?s utter destruction and brutality in order to support the mother
country. Dulce et Decorum Est By Wilfred Owen About this Poet Wilfred Owen who wrote some of
the best British poetry on World War I composed nearly all of his poems in slightly over a year from
August 1917 to September 1918. The points Owen makes in the poem, which he presents so
effectively with his use of a range of poetic techniques, support my view that we must find
alternative solutions to global disputes. The word remains a challenge to the transparency and realism
of the poem, and to critical interpretation. The word “trudge” shows that the soldiers are walking
slowly finding each step hard. Some politicians at the time believed it was necessary but that same
politician did not hold a gun and experience this. The poem is about the horrific experiences Owen
witnessed during the war, and the death of a fellow soldier. This further emphasizes how these
soldiers are denied a dignified death, instead being disregarded as inconsequential events. At first
glance it can be a major surprise that the author of the enormously popular poetry collection A
Shropshire Lad was a classical scholar by the name of AE. The text highlights the comparison
between two poems, one by Owens and another by Tennyson. The poem was effectively written,
causing the reader to be shocked by the graphic images and word choice. This is a promising start to
the essay as it shows examiner there is an adept hand writing the answer here; a candidate who

men's proximity to death. Repeated present participle endings have been used to emphasise the
feeling of haste. Additionally, the third stanza employs frequent words starting with the letter 'S' to
create a sense of hastened verse, effectively capturing the intensity and speed of the events
unfolding. This portrayal highlights their opposite image from the tall, proud, and prestigious
soldiers often depicted. There are also strong lines used in the rest of the poem. The speaker in the
third verse illustrates a feeling of confinement through the imagery of cannons encircling them from
different directions, suggesting that there's no way out. The poem serves as a poignant commentary
on the devastating impact of war, dispelling romanticized notions and compelling the reader to
confront the true, grim nature of armed conflict. The power of his finest poems lies not just in its
anti-war polemic or realism or even pity (each of which deeply informs his poetry) but in something
far more subtle, more risque, more disturbing.
Amazing poem! He had a tragic life.Very sad he died young during the War (In France at the Somme
river). The poem is written with a bitter tone to describe men before and through an attack that
happened during the First World War. The Latin title is taken from Ode 32 Valor of the Roman poet
Horace and means it is sweet and fitting. The poem is about the horrific experiences Owen witnessed
during the war, and the death of a fellow soldier. This portrayal sets the tone for a mood of horror
and sorrow, emphasizing the toll war takes on the soldiers' bodies. He is telling us that these men are

shame in the annals of First World War history. Poetry makes nothing happen, Auden famously
noted, but its long-term political and affective power cannot be underestimated. The soldier's primary
focus is on seeking safety rather than defending their country, highlighting their emotional
detachment from the war. The repetition of rhetorical devices in stanza 3 and stanza 5 emphasizes the
soldiers' active involvement in the midst of the intense combat. Our notes are easy and simple but
insightful and well-covered. Owen is subtly declaring conventional poet closure and comfort a lie,
just as his entire poem is calling?“dulce et decorum est” a lie. However, the use of rhetorical
repetition illustrates that the men did not question the order but dutifully carried out their duty and
fought for their nation. The flat battle grounds of Belgium and alike, where a lot of the First World
War was fought, would easily have been turned to mud with rain and thousands of men marching on
them. He uses words that will shock you and leave you with a sick feeling. The sounds of the similes
(?beggars?, ?hags?) soon metamorphose into the central reality (?gargling?) of the poem. This is a
very horrifying experience and would mark these men for life if they were to get out of this god
forsaken place. Owen aims to underscore the futility of war while Tennyson chooses to ignore it. The
power of his finest poems lies not just in its anti-war polemic or realism or even pity (each of which
deeply informs his poetry) but in something far more subtle, more risque, more disturbing. There is a

gives strong imagery of the man dying and is effective in reinforcing the author’s anti-war views.
The second stanza presents a stark contrast to the first. This portrayal highlights their opposite image
from the tall, proud, and prestigious soldiers often depicted. Time is held in suspense as one
nightmarish experience follows, and blurs into, another until the final part of the poem is literally
about a nightmare: the repetitive rhythm of the march gives way to the traumatic compulsion to
repeat. I could remember all the people screaming and shouting when they got shot and killed. While
war protest is habitually written through a language of wounds, Owen ?s visceral imagination takes
it a step further, a movement horrifically apt for our own times of biological and chemical warfare.
Ultimately, each piece effectively encapsulates its intended message and purpose within its final
lines for public comprehension. Only a completely exhausted soldier with no strength could be in this
state of mind to not have heard the gas shells in a battle field where the soldiers need to be alert of
everything going around them. Unlike Tennyson's poem, which glamorizes war and aims to uplift the
spirits of soldiers and civilians alike, Owen's poem exhibits a greater sense of honesty. The poem we
