Have a little read: ... War poems. Compare three or four poems which show war as noble. You should write about: * The experiences in the poem * What the poems show as noble * How the poets make war, or the experience of war, seem noble * Differences between the poems I have chosen to write about "For The Fallen", "Henry V At The Siege Of Harfleur", and "The Soldier". "For The Fallen" tells of the First World War, and the people who gave their lives to fight for their country. The poem begins by saying how proud England is of her "children", the ones who fought for her in the war. This gives the impression we should all be proud of them. The idea of the dead being like England's "children" is emphasised by the third line of the first stanza: "Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit," This makes me feel that they were truly belonging

User Reviews of this Essay

What our users think of this essay:

"This was a useful review and helped me develop my own opinion of "For the Fallen" (I did not need it for the other two poems). A few unbased assumptions are made (e.g. that the poem is written for the families of the servicemen) which are a little misleading and there are some inaccuracies such as the recount of servicemen turning into 'immortal spheres' (obviously a misreading) but in general the essay provides a well rounded view. One other slightly irritating point is that, contrary to the essayists claim, Laurence Binyon did go war and worked for the Red Cross although not until 1916. I'm sure the poor man must be turning in his grave. "
