Question
Jon Stallworthy collected fragments of poems from this conflict with an unfinished preface that begins, “this book is not about heroes.” The narrator says to “move him into the sun” in a poem set during this conflict that asks, “was it for this the clay grew tall?” Poems reflecting on this conflict were published in the magazine The Hydra, whose contributors convalesced at Craiglockhart Hospital. A “certain poetess” identified as (*) Jessie Pope was the dedicatee of a poem about this conflict whose narrator, “dim through misty panes and thick green light,” sees a man “guttering, choking, drowning.” That poem describes soldiers in this conflict “bent double, like old beggars under sacks” and ends by reciting the title “old lie.” For 10 points, name this conflict, the setting of “Dulce et Decorum est” by Wilfred Owen. ■END■
