From the worst horrors of modern trench warfare a small handful of soldiers and nurses created a body of poetry that is so vivid and intense that one hundred years later it has engraved itself on our national consciousness. This anthology focuses on those poets who were on the front line, from the famous Sassoon, Owens and Graves, to nurses like Vera Brittain. The poems are accompanied by a brief and accessible introduction, which sets the context for a reader new to the poems, as well as short biographical profiles of the poets.

From Homer and Virgil to Byron to Yeats to Auden to Marianne Moore and Elizabeth Bishop, from ancient China's anonymous bards to Poland's Mickiewicz and Italy's Primo Levi, poets of all times, places, and sensibilities have been moved to write about war.They have commemorated Thermopylae, Agincourt, the Battle of Shiloh, London in an air raid. They have remembered the Golden Vanity and Mademoiselle from Armentieres. They have announced "The Charge of the Light Brigade, " and handed down, through oral tradition, the Blackfoot Indian "Song for a Fallen Warrior." Here are more than 100 of their most memorable poems, ranging from Horace on the Battle of Actium and Heinrich Heine's "The Two Grenadiers" to Adrienne Rich's Vietnam-era "Newsreel." From Wilfred Owen and Sigfried Sassoon to Randall Jarrell and Stevie Smith, the poets represented here have encompassed the entire spectrum of feeling -- pride, compassion, courage, anger, anguish, laughter -- in this extraordinary anthology.

SORROW AND DISMAY is an illustrated meditation on the horror and stupidity of the Great War. The selected poems are by Siegfried Sassoon, a British officer. Sassoon documented trench warfare in poems soaked with pain. He confronted the reader with details of tedium and battle on the Western Front. He wrote with sarcasm on the motives of people in power and the absurdity of romantic views of war. He was masterful in capturing the language of soldiers and wartime trauma. The images in this book complement Sassoon's poems and are in sympathy with his anti-war views. Includes 44 war poems, 24 illustrations, Foreword, and Index of First Lines. Sassoon is one of sixteen WWI poets commemorated in the Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey.

Through Siegfried Sassoon would argue the point throughout his life, most critics regard his war poetry, written during World War I, as the best of his writings. Like many of his artistic contemporaries, Sassoon embraced the "Great War for Civilization" with great fervor, and it was this passion that he brought to his earliest writings about the war. "Absolution," his first war poem, published in 1915, summed up his feelings: "fighting for our freedom, we are free. "Fighting on the frontlines, Sassoon soon came to the conviction that his war for civilization was anything but civilized. And thus his writings took on a new tone, courageously denouncing a conflict that was no longer about "defense and liberation" but was for "aggression and conquest." Through primary documents and extensive research, the current work provides critical analyses of Sassoon's war poetry. Detailed examinations of each of the so-called trench poems show how the poet and his poetry were transformed through his wartime experiences and give the rationale for the critical consensus that the Sassoon canon is among the most significant in the literature of modern warfare.
