This book was released on 1984 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There can be no area of human experience that has generated a wider range of powerful feelings than war. The 250 poems included in this acclaimed anthology span centuries of human conflict - from David's lament for Saul and Jonathan, and Homer's Iliad, to the finest poems of the Second World War, Vietnam, Northern Ireland, and El Salvador, as well as the chilling visions of the 'Next War'. Reflecting the feelings of authors as diverse as Virgil, Daniel Defoe, Emily Dickinson, and Adrian Mitchell, they reveal a great shift in social awareness from man's early celebratory war-songs to the more recent anti-war attitudes of poets responding to 'man's inhumanity to man', and to women and children.

Download or read book War and Peace and Poetry written by Lonnie D. Ellis and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: War and Peace and Poetry was inspired by the everyday lives of American soldiers. Their stories and the lives they live while deployed to Iraq are chronicled in these verses, as well as some of author Lonnie D. Ellis's childhood memories of growing up in the Deep South. Many of the poems in this collection address war and its effects on families. They reflect the emotions of the soldiers, their spouses, and their children, who have to deal with the realities of war. Ellis touches on a facet of life that reflects each individual family member. "Daddy, Don't Go" was inspired by his personal experience with his children and the children of his fellow soldiers as they prepared to deploy from Fort Stewart. It was, by far, the most difficult poem he has written. He wrote the poem "The Journey" after speaking with many of his friends and hearing about the loneliness of their spouses and loved ones. The poem say to them, "I am there with you in spirit always, even if I cannot be with you physically." War and Peace and Poetry offers a soldier's perspective on the sacrifices made during war and tells the stories of soldiers and their families with heartfelt emotion.

Book excerpt: This little book of war poetry is a reminder, if ever we needed one, of all those young men who have fought in wars: those who left and never returned; those who came back wounded, limbless, blind, disfigured and gassed; those who came back apparently unscathed but still had horrifying stories to tell of what had happened to them. This book is dedicated to all those who sacrificed their lives. And yes, we will always remember!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collecting the nationally-recognized poems of Victoria Kelly, When the Men Go Off to War captures the hopes, anxieties, and intimacies of the military spouse during a time of war. Written over the course of her husband’s deployment in Iraq and Afghanistan, these haunting poems span vast geographical distances and generations, moving between the literal and the fanciful to find community in the midst of isolation. Kelly blends lyric and narrative elements to evoke themes of loneliness and human fragility with keen insight. But ultimately, When the Men Go Off to War is a heartrending ode to enduring romance and the reclamation of a marriage tested by loss and separation.

Download or read book The War Poems written by Siegfried Sassoon and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The War Poems of Siegfried Sassoon" is a collection of British war poems that doesn't mince words about the horror of infantry combat. Sassoon's poems drip with bite, sarcasm, and some bitterness, but at the same time they are elegantly rhymed and the images are powerful. The World Wars marked the end of innocence for many, and the poets who wrote of their war experiences brought home the irony of that innocence in the face of the devastation that was wrought. A note Sassoon wrote on one of his poems is particularly enlightening: "I haven't shown this to any clergyman. But soldiers say they feel like that sometimes." The writing in "The War Poems of Siegfried Sassoon" is poetry that grabs and moves the reader, letting them see some of life's darker experiences. For those who wish to understand what war really was, as well as be motivated to avoid it when at all possible, this collection is well worth reading.
