Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject History of Europe - Ages of World Wars, grade: 1,0, University of Göttingen, language: English, abstract: This paper focuses on the poetry written about the First World War. It examines the ways, in which the theme of war is presented in poems and how the various battlefields are presented. The paper will also look at the image of soldiers as perceived in the early years of the war and how it changed as the World War progressed. Further, the text highlights the view of twenty-first century poets on post-war memory poems. The selection of poetry in this paper stresses the gap between the perception of the war at the home front and the actual experience on the frontline. Poetry played a significant role in shaping the view of the war at the home front. Poetry fostered the enthusiasm for war more than pamphlets and articles at the time. Newspapers were filled with patriotic verse celebrating war struggle and encouraging volunteers to join the troops. This paper will analyse the heterogeneity of the stance towards of the war and the contrastive depiction of action taken by nationalist and pacifist poets of the time. To achieve this, the research is divided into three parts. The first one discusses the nationalistic and propagandist narrative represented in the celebrated poems of the time. The second part analyzes the pacifist view taken up by the trench poets at the frontline and the last segment focuses on the post-war poems written long after the war.

The horrors of the First World War released a great outburst of emotional poetry from the soldiers who fought in it as well as many other giants of world literature. Wilfred Owen, Rupert Brooke and W B Yeats are just some of the poets whose work is featured in this anthology. The raw emotion unleashed in these poems still has the power to move readers today. As well as poems detailing the miseries of war there are poems on themes of bravery, friendship and loyalty, and this collection shows how even in the depths of despair the human spirit can still triumph.

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Wuppertal, course: Introduction to Literary Studies, language: English, abstract: Two of the most famous ‘war poets’ of the First World War are Wilfred Owen and Rupert Brooke. At first glance both poets seem to have many similarities: Both, Owen and Brooke, were civilians, who joined the army at a young age, both wrote poetry inspired by their war experiences, and both died during the war. But looking at the content of their poems the differences are significant, almost as if both poets witnessed different wars: While Brooke’s poems glorify war and the heroic deeds of the soldiers, Owen’s poetry tries to show the reality of war and trench warfare. As both poets are examples for the changing perception of war in early and later ‘war poetry’, so are their poems "The Soldier" and "Dulce et Decorum est" examples of how those different mentalities are represented in poetry. This paper focuses especially on the form of both poems, as both use the form of the sonnet to achieve, but with very different results.

The First World War saw staggering loss of life and was a catalyst for many political and social changes. It was also shaped by the media and art forms that expressed it: film, photography, poetry, memoir, posters, advertisements, and music. This volume's scope shows that today's instructors contend with many different issues in teaching the First World War in a variety of classroom settings. Among these issues are the war's relation to modernism; global reach in the Middle East and South Asia; influence on psychiatry, pacifism, and consumer culture; and effect on public health and the 1918 influenza pandemic.

Revising his 1996 doctoral dissertation for the University of South Carolina, Haughey seeks out the response of Irish poets to the Great War, which he finds to have been cast into deep critical shadow by the dazzle of English poetry about that war, and the glare of poetry on the contemporary Irish independence movement.
