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"
Answer:
A. "Perhaps it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say. "Wait.”
Explanation:
The above evidence in this passage best supports the stated claim.
From the excerpt, the author reveals that when people have not had a taste of the bad effect of segregation, they will say "wait" and keep hindering action. This is in line with Dr. King's statement which also reveals that people who have not tasted the hatefulness of segregation will not see the need to take action.
But those who experience and see how vicious mobs lynch their parents and go to the extent of drowning their siblings at whim; and they see the hate filled policemen as they curse, kick and eventually kill their black brothers and sisters; they will rise up to take action.
This is generally true because when people have not experienced certain things, they will not see the reason end to act. Injustice will stir the call for justice.
