Abstract:

Both Robert Graves and Siegfried Sassoon achieved their first real poetic successes during the Great War. Linked together as fellow officers and friends, and flushed with the promise of greater poetic achievement ahead, both writers perceived the war initially as a vehicle by which they could rid themselves of Victorian influences and produce startling results as realists. But as the war continued and both men began to suffer its effects, they realized that their verses had failed to alert a victory-determined British populace to its jingoistic mentality. By mid 1919, both poets were trying to

Soldiers in the trenches internalized images of confusion and gore, and returned to a society unwilling and often unable to comprehend their sacrifices. For nearly 65,000 of these soldiers, their experiences on the front brought on hysteria, mental breakdown, muteness, paralysis, and other bizarre physical maladies (ER, 189). The medical description of the mental conditions that pre

Abstract:

The glory of war is dead, and the Great War killed it. Soldierly dignity, heroism, and proper field chivalry; all laid to waste by a single mortar round at Arras. This ethos—a vestige of Greek warrior worship—stood little chance against the trenches. It either drowned in the fecal trench muck at the Somme or staggered back—in tatters, if that—a broken soul; another victim of the so-called “Good Fight.” And there were many victims. An entire generation, even, lost to the trenches. But that’s not even the worst part. The worst part is that home front in England didn’t even get it.

Abstract:

The purpose of this dissertation is to offer a translation from English into Italian of seventeen poems from the collection of WWI poems Counter-Attack and Other Poems, by British author Siegfried Sassoon. Besides personal interest, the importance of this work lies in the fact that Siegfried Sassoon was never translated systematically into Italian. His 1918 poems show an anti-military feeling, which is often presented by a strong irony, forming a single blast against everything Sassoon found repellent concerning the war. They drip with intensity, sarcasm, bite, and bitterness, but at the same

Abstract:

Es planteja el caràcter bifront del gènere autobiogràfic. Siegfried Sassoon, poeta i combatent de la Primera Guerra Mundial, és l'autor de les memòries de George Sherston que narren la infantesa i joventut del protagonista en l'entorn rural idíl·lic del sud d'Anglaterra i, després, la seva participació al front occidental. Tanmateix, resulta difícil adscriure aquestes memòries a la ficció pel sol fet que els noms de l'autor i el narrador-protagonista no coincideixin. La trilogia autobiogràfica de Sherston narra amb precisió documental les vicissituds biogràfiques més rellevants de Sassoon. Fic

Abstract:

Prior study of Craiglockhart War Hospital has focused on the hospital's two most famous patients, Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon, along with the work of the psychotherapist W. H. R. Rivers. Craiglockhart's literary culture is studied in detail for the first time in this thesis and the hospital's therapeutic ethos used as a framework by which the creative work produced at the hospital can be examined. This thesis argues that the British Army's lack of consensus regarding the best treatment of war neuroses facilitated the development of Craiglockhart's expressive culture, in which patients w

Abstract:

Accounts of the First World War were written by British soldiers who not only experienced and witnessed traumatic events in battle but also depicted them in poetry and prose. This M.A. thesis aims at analyzing the writings of Siegfried Sassoon, his poetry and his prose, and demonstrate some connections among them with the biographies of the poet and historical accounts of the war, and especially to investigate the ironies in his poetry. Theories of irony are cited, especially Wayne Booth's stable irony to link the aspects of irony to his war poetry.<br>Registros da 1ª Guerra Mundial foram escr

Abstract:

This thesis studies the clash between the hero and the First World War in the works of Rupert Brooke, Siegfried Sassoon and Wilfred Owen. It explores the impact on their poetry and attitude towards the concept of the hero as it applied to them as people and poets. The study shows that over prolonged contact with the horrors of the First World War, it is evident in both literary sources and their poetry that both Sassoon and Owen changed their attitudes negatively towards both the idea of heroes and heroism, as well as the War as a just and glorious cause. However, the myth of the hero was sti

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the modes of individual and cultural grieving that characterize the British literature of the Great War and its aftermath, 1914-30. Combining archival research, cultural history, and genre theory, I identify the war literature’s expression of a poetics of grief and grievance: one that is melancholic, in that it resists redemptive mourning, and accusatory, in that it frequently assigns blame for war and suffering on civilian spectators or the writer himself. In order to trace the development of the anti-elegiac in the literature of the Great War, my dissertation provi
