How does the poem Dulce et Decorum Est represent what it was like in war time

English
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]1 year ago
7 0

The poem is a detailed and devastating description of the atrocities of that war in particular and, by implication, the atrocities of all conflicts.

This is further explained below.

<h3>Who is Dulce et Decorum Est?</h3>

Generally, Wilfred Owen penned the poetry "Dulce et Decorum est" when he was serving in World War I. The poem was not published until after Owen's death in 1920. The phrase "it is pleasant and suitable" is translated from the Latin title, which was taken from Ode 3.2 written by the Roman poet Horace. The phrase pro-Patria Mori, which translates to "to die for one's nation," comes just after it.

In conclusion, Although the poem primarily focuses on the atrocities that occurred during that specific war, it alludes, in a more general sense, to the atrocities that occur throughout any and all conflicts.

As in Harry potter. she had people traveling with her as she knew people might surround her, and they did. She talked about her experience as a child actress and how the world of acting is no joke. We performed for her and she gave us notes on our scenes. when I was performing she told me I was incredible, although she did have some suggestions on how I could improve, she is EMMA WATSON, and as she was making her suggestions she went on the stage and told me how to stand. She also said that I was tense and should losen up, she grabbed my hands and told me there is nothing to fear. long story short I am NEVER washing these hands again!

masya89 [10]

Answer:

c: Champollion was amazed after seeing Karnak

Explanation:

Jean-François Champollion was a French linguist most famous for his work on Ancient Egypt and for deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphics.

In this excerpt we can clearly see signs of deep admiration and fascination Champollion had towards Egyptian culture, society and especially architecture.

That can best be seen from his sentence: "No nation on earth, ancient or modern, has ever conceived architecture on so noble and vast a scale".

This diary entry suggests that he was extremly amazed at the sight of Karnak.
