Compare and Contrast the different attitudes to war you have studied

The three poems that I am going to comp be and logical argu homophilepowert are Whos for the juicy? by Jessie pope, Dulce et decorousness est, by Wilfred Owen and beau ideal How I hate you by Arthur Graeme westerly. The three poets use their writing to express their opinions of the war. Jessie pope is a persuasive journalist who wrote war poems to help recruit macrocosmpowert and to keep going the war effort. Whos for the Game? tries to convince upstart workforce with propaganda that they should go to war.She portrays the war as a game, which go away be fun for the men who join up and go forth make them heroes whereas the men who do non join will be perceive as people who are spoiling the fun. She persuades the men to fight in the game by using manipulation, which would because make them incur guilty if they did non go to war. Dulce et decorum est is a poem in response to Jessie Popes attitude to war, which aims to prove to her that war is non a game and that wa tching a fellow sol overtaker cease is not enjoyable. Wilfred Owen describes how he saw a man being clotted to death by poisonous bollix and how the war changed the s matureiers.He describes the soldier anxious(p) in horrific detail, and he paints a vivid shew of how it must vex felt for him to tell the man die. Dulce et Decorum est is a Roman motto, meaning It is sweet and fitting to die for your ground and he demonstrates done his poem that it is not sweet to die for your sphere. He withal sarcastically refers to Jessie Pope as my friend, which is telling her that she is not his friend because she is persuading easily-influenced teen men to go to war and to die horrifically for their country. He describes the war as, the old lie and obscene as cancer.The harsh title of God How I hatred You, tells us that Arthur Graeme West is also anti-war. Arthur Graeme West is not referring to how he hates God, hardly how he hates the young, cheerful men who write poetry astir(pred icate) how terrific it is to go to war and how young men should be thanking God because he has given them a motivation in life. Had they been to war themselves and seen a young man die, as he had, they would not write such things. He and so also goes on to describe how he saw a man being shot, and he gives a vivid description of his wizardry exploding uniform an eggshell.The last two sentences of the poem are sarcastic, as he is saying how God is in His Heaven in the best viable of worlds, indicating that he disagrees with the poets that write that. The three poems describe how the soldiers during the war and whether they act po nonplusively or negatively. Jessie Pope is describing how the war would be to the soldiers who took power and how they would be perceived as brave heroes. The sanction stanza says, Wholl give his country a mint? which gives the impression that war is like doing a small job which will make you feel brave once you have done it.On the last line of the second stanza she says, And who wants a seat in the stand, which seems to scoff at the soldiers who do not take part in the war. In the triplet stanza on the last line she writes about the soldier who once again did not take part in the war by saying, because lie low and be out of the fun? which makes them seem as though they are spoiling it for everyone else and being selfish by imposition low and not helping the distinguishables fight. In the third stanza, she writes about how the country is stressful to fight, and that she needs the young, brave men to help her with the fight.She uses personification when she says that the country is a she, which may makes the young men seem strong and preventive of their country, as she is a woman and therefore will need the help from the men. God How I hate You, does not describe the soldiers as being part of a game. Instead Arthur Graeme West describes the men as slowly dying humans and he also describes the dead soldiers lying in the trenches. He describes the men as being bored of the war, as they only sit around waiting to be attacked by the enemy. He says in the third stanza, Proved that all muddy brown monotony, which tapers us the tedium of war.Arthur Graeme West describes in vivid detail how he saw a man being shot, and he describes how he saw the man slowly dying, which makes you translate with him and the other soldiers because who saw such horrific events. In Dulce et Decorum Est, Owen describes the men as weary, un burning and dirty, and he gives more detail than the two other poets. On the first line of the first stanza, he describes the men with similes as, change shape double, like old beggars, which shows us that the men look unwell and onetime(a) then they are due to the effect the war has had on them.On the second line, he says that the men were, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, which shows us that they had developed an abnormality in the knees, causing them to wal k differently, that they were decision it harder to breathe because they were coughing like old women, and that they were cursing as they walked through mud, which shows their lack of enthusiasm. On the forth line, it says, to trudge which also shows us that they were unenthusiastic and tired.The soldiers were tired because it said that the men marched asleep so they were subconsciously walking onwards, without thinking about where or why they were walking. This shows us that Arthur Graeme West and Wilfred Owen both agreed that the soldiers were causeless and that they were not playing happily as if they were in a game. However, Jessie Pope disagrees with them and she thinks that the men were happily playing along in the war, and that they were keen to go into in the war as if it were a game or sport.In, Whos for the Game? there are no deaths that are describe because Jessie Pope is trying to persuade people that it is right to go to war and that it is more of a game than a battle field. She had never been to war and never seen someone die in battle. has she done so then perhaps she would have described a death to warn the men that they should not go to war. However, Dulce et Decorum Est describes a soldier dying in graphic detail. In the second stanza, Wilfred Owen says floundering like a man in fire or lime tree when he is describing the soldier dying. He uses metaphors to describe the disconsolate sight of the man dying.In the third stanza he says, And watch the white eyes move in his face, which shows us that his eyes of struggling to move and that he is suffering. other metaphor that it says is His hanging face, like a devils sick of sin, which is saying that, as the devil will never be sick of sin, that his face would have looked as though it was slowly being tortured to death. He then describes that there was Blood gargling from his froth corrupted lungs which is showing us how inexorable and horrific it would have been to watch. In, God How I ha te you, there is a description of a mans head being burst open.It uses similes to describe it. For example, in the third stanza it says, Smashed like an eggshell and the warm grey brain, spattered all bloody on the parados It is using horrific detail so that the person can imagine how horrific it must have been to see the man die and to know that they could end up dying like him. God How I hate you, and,Dulce et Decorum est, are both including gruesome details on how the soldiers die and what it was like to be there, unlike Jessie Pope, who decides not mention the possibility of deaths, but instead speaks of how the men who eagerly get up a gun are heroes.The rhythm of, Dulce et Decorum est begins with a slow and heavy rhythm, because it helps the ref to imagine the soldiers trudging slowly across the ground, and you can imagine how they feel tired and unenthusiastic. Then the rhythm suddenly speeds up when the gas shells explode, to show how they quickly fumble around in desper ation to find their gas masks, which helps the reader to imagine the panic and anxiety. In, God How I hate you, has a loud, quite slow clapping rhythm, which seems to get louder as his anger increases.This helps the reader to see Arthur Graeme Wests anger and how it helps them to feel what he is thinking. In, Whos for the Game? the rhythm is some the same speed as, God How I hate you, because they are both loud, although Jessie Pope was probably trying to make the rhythm sound enthusiastic rather then angry. This shows us that although the two poems are making different points, they both use the same rhythm for different purposes, unlike Dulce et Decorum Est, which has a slower beat which gradually gets faster.In conclusion, the poem which I least prefer is, Whos for the Game. The reason for this is because the poem uses manipulation and propaganda to try and metier men to go to war. It is not as gruesome and as graphic as the other two poems, and it does not describe horrific de aths in it instead it portrays the war as a game and as something which will enable you to be seen as a hero and bring you rain cloud if you die for your country. It glosses over the harsh realities of war and dishonestly lures young men towards a possible grim death.
