In the sonnet ‘Anthem for Doomed Youth’ Wilfred Owen conveys the message of the pointlessness of slaughter of generations of young men in the war. Owen conveys the message by the use of an irony‚ personification‚ religious imagery and the mockery of religion. The title‚ appearing to make the poem seem as an ‘anthem’ is deliberately ironic. As an anthem is normally a song of praise or a song played at a special event but as

    Owen’s purpose in writing Anthem for a Doomed Youth is to reveal the cruel reality of war which was always hidden from the public in World War One and to show anger to the people who sent him to the trenches. He says in his preface "All a poet can do today is warn....” this shows he aims to prevent war from happening in later generations.

    everything. This is the reality of Anthem. Almost all technological advancements were lost during a time we cannot mention. After these times‚ there has been an effort to keep them at bay and eradicate all evidence of its existence in order to keep the society in control.

Inventions are not easily accepted into the society. In Anthem‚ there is a set process for

    The book I read this month is called "Anthem" by Ayn Rand. Anthem is a fiction book and was quite interesting.

It was very confusing to read at times but in the end everything
