Specificatii
The British poets Wilfred Owen, Ivor Gurney, and Siegfried Sassoon
found themselves psychologically altered by what they experienced
in the First World War. Owen was hospitalized in April 1917 for
shell shock in Scotland, where he met Siegfried Sassoon in June of
that year, hospitalized for the same affliction. Ivor Gurney found
the war, ironically, to have been a place of relative stability
within an otherwise tormented life; When he was wounded during the
war's final year, his doctors observed signs of mental illness,
which evolved into incapacitating psychosis by 1922. For each of
these men--all poets before the war--poetry served as a way to
inscribe continuity into their lives, enabling them to retaliate
against the war's propensity to render the lives of the
participants discontinuous. Poetry allowed them to return to the
war through memory and imagination, and poetry helped them to bring
themselves back from psychological breakdown to a state of
stability, based upon a relationship to the war that their literary
war enabled them to create and discover. This work investigates the
ways in which the poetry of war functioned as a means for these
three men to express the inexpressible and to extract value out of
the experience of war. Bibliography and index are also included.
