Question
In a poem [emphasize] set in this decade, men are told “Come… / And dance to the latest air” by “red lights” that “call madness”; that poem is titled for a “Concert Party.” “The evenings and the sunsets on the island” and “tall black ships at anchor” feature in a poem from this decade, many of whose stanzas begin with the phrases “can you recall” and “can you forget.” That poem, which describes a “hopeful, high, courageous morning,” is by May Cannan. A man swears “deep heart’s deep oaths / Polite to God” in “The Silent One,” a poem from this decade by the author of (*) War’s Embers, Ivor Gurney. Edmund Blunden’s Undertones of War, which is set in this decade, is praised in a Paul Fussell study about Modern Memory. For 10 points, name this decade, during which a man posits “a pulse in the Eternal mind” and claims “there’s some corner of a foreign field / That is forever England” in Rupert Brooke’s “The Soldier.” ■END■
