Seminar reflection Cole Hawkins
This poems is about feeling and deception vs reality of war in the only the reader can truly fined the true meaning in this poem.
There was one comment that I found interesting Tatum sad this poem shows the feeling of war in a short period of writing in comparison of all quite on the weston front is such a descriptive book of every feeling and every sentence is describing an image or a feeling that the solders are having.
The old lie being repeated about how its good to die for your country and Keegan had a good point of how true its that the lie is used to recruit soldiers in the army and its not " sweet and right to die for your country.
Because after reading all quite on the western front the talk about how war is not what it is thought up to be but because of the media. Even to day you can see how there talking about war as a good opportunity to become more than what you are if you fight for your country,for instants there's a commercial that says there's strong but then there's army strong.
Because this poem is so tricky in the meaning of the words it's using and imagery that reading it multiple times benefited me in a big way. A lot of words in this poem are hard to no the meaning or they are in a different language that you have to every word to know what the poem is saying. Even the imagery in the poem has a deeper meaning in that it mite say one thing but its a symbol of something else.
