A comparison between 'Dulce et Decorum Est' and 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' by Wilfred Owen

Have a little read: ... A comparison between 'Dulce et Decorum Est' and 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' by Wilfred Owen Both of these poems were written during the First World War and both concentrate on how innocent people were killed for no particular reason. The titles of the two poems have exactly the opposite meanings to each other. 'Dulce et Decorum Est' translated into English means it is proper and sweet. From this title you would imagine the poem to be about a noble soldier who goes to war to save his country but it is ironic as the poem is about the complete opposite. The title for 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' tells us that the poem will be about a funeral and how young men's tragic experiences make the reader feel pity for the 'doomed youth'. This title is also ironic as the poem is about how the dead soldiers are all being thrown into
