    Compare the ways in which Owen and Frost present youth in ‘disabled’ and ‘Out‚ out-’ When comparing the poems “Out‚Out-” and Disabled many themes appear‚ the most prominent being youth. Youth is the period between childhood and adulthood in which one grows and develops; it is also a time of hope and optimistic idealism. Not only is youth a physical state of being but a mental state of mind too . Youth is a formative period in a person’s life that is only a short part of one’s existence. Youth

    The opening stanza is characterised by language about ’fatigue’: the soldiers ’marched asleep’‚ they ’trudge’‚ and ’limped on’. They are ’deaf’‚ ’lame’ and ’blind’; all rather pitiful language intended to reveal the reality of war and its effects. The speaker describes a vision in a dream of a gas victim ’guttering‚ choking‚ drowning’. The listed verbs are associated with a lack of air and death. The language used in the sections depicting the gas attack is strong‚ representing both the anguish

    Thomas Hardy and ‘Dulce Et Decorum Est’ by Wilfred Owen. ‘The Man He Killed’ is about a man who was in the war and is thinking about his memories in the war. The main part of his experience in the war that he is reminiscing is the killing that he committed and the majority of the poem is focused on that. Thomas Hardy did not go to war himself but it could be thought that he got the idea from a friends experience in the war. The poem is based on the Boer War. The message of the poem is that he was most

    Disabled people are the most important part of our society and they should be treated with justice. Society should deliver to them according to their needs. Treating them equally is not the solution because their needs and capabilities are different. I understand people with disabilities live in this world and want to be able to live like any other person. Not differently than anyone else. They want to be able to go out to do shopping‚ have fun with people‚ study in any situation‚ and maybe work

    Personal Response. The poem talks of a gas attack upon an accumulation of soldiers who are fighting in World War I. He sarcastically states that it is ‘sweet and fitting to die for ones country’. Wilfred Owen thought completely different of this‚ however‚ and is complexly against the war. He uses very powerful‚ vivid descriptions‚ for example‚ the young soldiers being described as ‘aged by war’. For someone to ‘age’ in a matter of minutes‚ seconds even‚ is an astounding thing‚ most likely referring

In his poem‚ the difference between past and present allows Owen to reveal the regret

    Wilfred Laurier‚ at the beginning of the twentieth century‚ predicted that “The next hundred years would belong to Canada.” I believe Wilfred was correct; the twentieth century did indeed belong to Canada. The Canadians and the Canadian/British allied forces had many victories‚ Canadian born people who grew up to change the world and many other events prove that Canada owned the twentieth century. Many consider the victory at Vimy Ridge in 1917 a defining moment for Canada. Although it
