Question
A soldier in this conflict is depicted “musing o’er his scars, and wooden leg” in a poem that ends with the italicized phrase “famine and a name!” Another poem set in this conflict describes a future “born on the night-wind of the past” and a “word that shall echo forevermore!” The line “By the rude bridge that arched the flood” opens a “Hymn” about a battle in this conflict by Ralph Waldo Emerson. Philip Freneau was often called the “Poet of” this conflict, which was also the setting of a poem whose title character “spread the alarm through every Middlesex village and farm.” For 10 points, what conflict is the setting of Longfellow’s poem “Paul Revere’s Ride?” ■END■
ANSWER: American Revolution [or American Revolutionary War or American War of Independence; prompt on Battle of Concord by asking “that was part of what wider conflict?”] (The poem in the first line is “The American Soldier” by Philip Freneau.)
