The soldiers face extreme stress as they await battle, hearing distant guns and screams of the wounded; they feel their spirits shutting down in the cold amid the rumbling of guns and flickering flashes of artillery; the poet conveys the soldiers' sadness and anger at their situation and the horrors of war through descriptive language that places the reader in their perspective.
Exposure - Wilfred Owen
This document provides context and analyzes the themes, structure, and language of Wilfred Owen's poem "Exposure." It notes that the poem was written during WWI as soldiers endured brutal conditions in the trenches. Through its use of rhyme, rhythm, vocabulary and literary devices, the poem depicts the despair and meaningless of war from the perspective of soldiers more fearful of the extreme cold and weather than enemy bullets. The analysis highlights how the poem aimed to contradict the glorified depictions of war in British propaganda.
The Charge of the Light Brigade
The poem describes the Charge of the Light Brigade during the Crimean War. It summarizes that 600 cavalry soldiers were ordered to ride into a valley surrounded by enemy cannons on three sides, despite knowing it was a doomed mission that would lead to their deaths. The soldiers obeyed orders without question and rode bravely into heavy fire, demonstrating great courage, duty, and sacrifice.
Keeping quiet
The poem "Keeping Quiet" by Pablo Neruda discusses the need for peace and silence. In 3 sentences:
The poet asks humanity to count from 1 to 12 in silence to experience a moment without movement, noise or language. This would allow everyone to pause and reflect on their actions without harming others or the environment. Neruda hopes this period of quiet introspection will lead people to understand each other better and promote universal brotherhood over conflict and war.
Keeping quiet- Pablo Neruda
Pablo Neruda's poem "Keeping Quiet" urges people to observe silence in order to find inner peace and understanding. The poet calls on all people to count to twelve together and then remain still and silent, breaking down barriers of language. In the silence, fishermen would stop harming whales, the poor would reflect on their injuries, and warmongers would embrace peace. The poet believes that if people were not so preoccupied all the time and could experience profound silence, it might help alleviate sadness and lack of self-understanding, and could even prevent self-destruction through war. Overall, the poem promotes silence as a way to introspect, understand oneself and others more deeply, and find unity between
Keeping Quiet
Pablo Neruda was a Chilean poet born in 1904 who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. In this poem, Neruda advocates for quiet introspection and mutual understanding between humans to overcome sadness, hatred, and war. He asks people to remain still and silent for 12 seconds to find inner peace and stop destructive conflicts from lack of reflection and empathy for others. Neruda believes nature can teach humanity valuable lessons if people look inward and understand each other instead of only prioritizing individual goals and activities.
Invictus
The poem Invictus by William Ernest Henley describes his unconquerable spirit in the face of adversity. At age 17, Henley had part of his leg amputated due to tuberculosis of the bone. Despite this disability, as reflected in the poem, he maintained an unbowed and unafraid spirit. Through four stanzas, Henley expresses thanks for his inner strength, declares that he has endured hardship without complaint, is unafraid of death, and considers himself master of his own fate.

War poems
The poem "The Death Bed" describes a dying soldier who drifts in and out of consciousness in the hospital. As he sleeps, he has dreams and memories of being on the water or in the trenches during war. The soldier is near death from his wounds but others try to save him.

It also depicts the trauma that war has caused soldiers and how they may never truly recover, even if their physical wounds heal.
Soldier Rest
This poem provides a calm and reflective look at a soldier nearing death from war. Through repetition of the phrase "Soldier, rest", the speaker commands the soldier to accept death and find peace from the pains of battle.

Weapons Training
The poem depicts a weapons training session where a sergeant harshly instructs new soldiers. He uses crude, racist, and demeaning language to belittle the soldiers and refer to the enemy. His goal is to strip the soldiers of their humanity and individuality so they will follow orders without hesitation. He wants to ensure they have the skills to stay alive but leaves them with the ominous message that they will likely end up "dead dead dead".
Exposure
The poem describes the extreme conditions faced by soldiers in World War I. They are exposed to relentless rain, cold winds and isolation from others. At night, the soldiers are kept awake by strange noises they hear as the wind howls. In the morning, they wonder what will happen that day but remain in a state of uncertainty. Later, they take shelter in muddy trenches to hide from gunfire in the distance. The soldiers feel as though they are slowly dying and see other comrades perish around them. By the end, a group of soldiers are found dead in the trenches, their bodies left to freeze in the bitter cold, as nothing happens to relieve their suffering.
Anthem to doomed youth by wilfred owen
Wilfred Owen's poem "Anthem for Doomed Youth" summarizes the experiences of soldiers dying in World War I. It contrasts the brutal realities of war, with soldiers dying like cattle amid the rapid firing of guns, to the religious ceremonies that are absent. Where there would normally be prayers, bells, and mourning, the soldiers receive only the "shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells." The poem criticizes how young soldiers are sent to their doom in war, facing harsh and inhumane deaths without the traditional funeral rites.
Anthem to Doomed Youth
Wilfred Owen's poem "Anthem for Doomed Youth" summarizes the experiences of soldiers dying in World War I. It contrasts the brutal realities of war, with guns angrily firing, against the religious ceremonies usually accompanying death. Owen describes the soldiers' deaths being marked only by the sounds of shells wailing, instead of prayers, bells, or mourning. The poem criticizes how young soldiers are sent to their doom in war, comparing them to cattle. It conveys Owen's disillusionment with how religion and society view the sacrifices of soldiers.
Anthem to doomed youth by wilfred owen
Wilfred Owen's poem "Anthem for Doomed Youth" describes the grim realities of death in war through vivid imagery and irony. It contrasts the traditional funeral rites of bells, prayers and candles with the harsh sounds of battle - the guns and shells. Owen questions why young soldiers must die like cattle without ceremony. Through this, the poem criticizes how the church portrayed war as honorable while overlooking the terrible fate of those who sacrificed their lives.
'My sweet old etcetera' by e.e cummings
E.E. Cummings served as an ambulance driver in World War 1 where he was detained and interrogated on suspicion of treason. After the U.S. entered the war, he was drafted but discharged in 1919. His poem "my sweet old etcetera" reflects on his experience through the perspectives of his family at home. Using unconventional punctuation and lowercase letters, he depicts the detachment between soldiers and loved ones and captures thoughts of escape through dreaming of a woman. Repetition of "etcetera" leaves meanings ambiguous but suggests an inability to fully express wartime realities.

Suicide in the Trenches.pptx
The poem describes a young soldier who was initially happy and enthusiastic about serving his country in World War 1. However, the harsh realities and terrible conditions of the trenches took their toll on him. Overcome by "crumps and lice and lack of rum", he commits suicide, unable to cope any longer. In the final stanza, the poet criticizes those back home who cheer for the soldiers but have no understanding of the "hell" they endure at the front. Sassoon conveys his anger at people who see war as glamorous but do not comprehend the suffering and psychological damage it inflicts.

Anthem for doomed youth - Wilfred Owen
The poem describes how soldiers die in battle without any meaningful rituals or recognition of their deaths. It notes that the only sounds that mark their passing are the "monstrous anger" of guns and the "shrill, demented choirs" of shells. While people at home engage in mock mourning, the true mourning is seen in the "holy glimmers" in the eyes of loved ones left behind and "pallor of girls' brows." The poem criticizes how the deaths of soldiers are ignored and the realities of war are hidden from civilians.
How capote creates sympathy towards perry
Capote uses short, simple sentences and vivid metaphors to elicit sympathy for the character of Perry in his biography. Descriptions of the cruel nuns as "black widows" and Perry's struggle to recount his father abandoning him without crying show the difficult emotions Perry experienced. A metaphor compares the emotions stirred by the biography to a horse race between self-pity, love, and hate, with hate ultimately winning out.

Betjeman expresses his disdain for Slough in his poem, using oxymorons to call for friendly bombs to fall on the town. He depicts Slough as an industrial area with no natural grasslands and tinned, conformist minds where people excessively focus on appearances by dying their hair with chemicals. The poem portrays Slough negatively as a place that has destroyed the natural environment and promotes uniformity over individuality.

Both the soldiers and the poet feel the suffering of war, with the soldiers feeling like their feet have come to the end of the world and the poet feeling sorrow for the soldiers.
English exposure poem
The poem describes soldiers waiting in trenches during a battle, taking shelter from heavy snowfall and gunfire. As dawn rises, the rain and clouds grow heavier. The soldiers stare at the falling snow, believing the cold weather poses a greater threat than the passing bullets. Hiding in the trenches and dugouts from the snow, the men dream of warmer places. As some of the men die, wild animals start to invade the trenches, making the places their own, while others come to bury the dead with shovels.
Chamona!!!!!!
