Wilfred Owen -Anthem for Doomed Youth
These words sharpen rifles were moving debauched on the battleground as many soldiers were slain, this gives the ratifier a exit image and uses caesura as they reflect on the deaths in the war. 2) Why be the men referred as kine? Wilfred Oween refers the men as cattle as exemplified by the joint who die as cattle. This simile is employ in the verse to make the reader naturalism how many soldiers were killed during the war battle for at that place country. The men killed are compared to cattle to indicate the great number of soldiers inured and killed. At the start of the poem what rhetorical enquiry Is asked by Owen before he goes to answer It? Owen asks a rhetorical question in the beginning of the poem which he consequently answers throughout the rest of the poem as evident in what exit bells for those who die as cattle? The question asked is a rhetorical question which gives no time for the reader to answer however the poem does that. Caesura has been used In thi s rhetorical question because It will give time for the reader to reflect on the question whilst reading down the poem. How does Owen appeal to our star of sight and audience by using the sounds of the battlefield? Owen appeals to our senses of sight and hearing using the sounds on the battlefields. This Is evident In no mockeries for them from prayers or bells, the phrase is appealing to our senses because it is explaining to readers ceremonies did not go on in any counsel either prayers or bells. The dead people were not given a proper funeral or mocked at. Owen uses the words prayer and bells because it is comparing the deaths then and now. It is highlight the main differences of unreels.Moving on Owen also appeals to our senses by using personification to depict the gun shooting on the battlefield. This technique of personification Is event In monstrous anger AT teen guns Owen gives teen gun enervate counterblasts to make the reader understand the sight and sounds on the ba ttlefield. 5) Where does Owen suggest that there is no dignity in suffering during the war time? end-to-end the poem Owen suggests that there is no dignity in suffering during the war time. He compares natural death to deaths caused by the war.This is evident in wan choirs of wailing shells the choirs are described as shrill and demented which indicate dying during war was a disastrous, mad and pointless. However dying naturally would be the completely opposite as you would have calm and reposeful choirs singing hymns rather than wailing shells. 6) What techniques does Owen suggest that young men were interpreted out of their beautiful countryside homes and persuaded to go to the front frontier? Owen uses may techniques to show that they were missed and taken out of their countryside homes.One of the techniques used by Owen is a metaphor on line 13 stanza 2 as shown in the phrase their flowers the tenderness of speechless maids. The metaphor used he is showing flowers were rep laced by there wifes and girlfriends when they died fighting for there country. Family and friends were taking the place of flowers and missed thee brothers, dads, children and wives. Moving on Owen uses some other technique to show they would not have a proper and sepulchre and will be missed by there loved ones at home.
