Answer:

The Soldier by Rupert Brooke and Dulce et Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen were both written during world war one. War and death are the themes of both poems but they are written from different perspectives. Brooke seems to base his poem on myth because overall he says that it is good to die for your country while fighting at war is terrible and that it is every soldier for himself and not for your country.

  There are many reasons why Brooke and Owen have different attitudes to war. For example Brook wrote The Soldier at the beginning of the war but Owen wrote it in 1916. Brooks wrote his poem as someone who hasn't been at war and at this time people…show more content…

Owen also shows how the men feel and how they look. Take for example when Owen is describing in the final stanza the man which died from the earlier gas attack," Behind the wagon that we flung him in, And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin, If you could hear, at every dolt, the blood come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs. Bitter as the cud. Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues."

  In Brook's poem of The Soldier he uses his language softly to show the people at home that the war is good and that if people die there for their country they are looked upon as an honourable person. But in Owen's poem of Dulce et Decorum Est, it uses language harshly by using similes and metaphors to emphasise the misery he witnessed and the violence of war. Here are some examples," Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots of gas-shells dropping softly behind.", "His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin.", "My friend, you would not tell with such high zest to children ardent for some desperate glory, the old Lie: Duke et decorum est Pro parr/a man"

The last person to approach the Greensboro Four on that first day was an ... up support to continue and expand their demonstration and as word spread it started to swell.

Explanation:

In the late afternoon of Monday, February 1, 1960, four young black men entered the F. W. Woolworth store in Greensboro, North Carolina. The weather had been warm recently but had dropped back into the mid-50s, and the four North Carolina A&T students were comfortable in their coats and ties in the cool brisk air as they stepped across the threshold of the department store. Like many times before, Joseph McNeil, Franklin McCain, David Richmond and Jibreel Khazan browsed the store’s offerings and stepped to the cashier to buy the everyday things they needed—toothpaste, a notebook, a hairbrush. Five and dime stores like Woolworth's had just about everything and everyone shopped there, so in many ways this trip was not unique. They stuffed the receipts into their jacket pockets, and with racing hearts turned to their purpose.
