Abstract:
The conference presents a unique opportunity to recognize the contributions of Wilfred Owen to the field of low-volume roads and their application to the problems of today and tomorrow. Owen was the transportation expert for the Brookings Institution for about four decades. Besides being interested in the theories and principles of low-volume roads, Owen was vitally concerned with the rural and urban needy throughout the world. He believed that the development of transport and the economic opportunities that would ensue would benefit them significantly. Few have had more impact on the provision and improvement of low-volume roads in developing countries than Wilfred Owen. He was the author of many studies of specific countries in addition to several books. His major emphasis was on the need to identify and grasp the basics of economic evaluation and, more important, the basic premises and goals for investing in transport to facilitate economic development. Owen’s second major emphasis was on well-founded and rational planning. He focused on the need for change, including the reorganization of international efforts to address the global transportation problem. In 1983 Wilfred Owen was the keynote speaker at the Third International Conference on Low-Volume Roads. His topics that day included a shrinking planet, integrated global economies, world population growth, global disparities, and development of an international cooperative effort. He had completed his last book shortly before his death in November 2001.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.B. in Literature)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Humanities, 2006.<br>Includes bibliographical references.<br>Introduction: The infantrymen of the Great War experienced the unimaginable. 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 precipitated so many of these symptoms underwent a dramatic evolution as more and more cases were reported. These conditions were first collected under the terse assignation of "shell-shock," linking the range of maladies to the psychological influence of heavy artillery as well as referring tacitly to ontological theories of physical lesions in cerebral tissue. Such diagnostic projections were assisted by patients who, upon solicitation, readily supplied anecdotal evidence of mortar blasts. As the war progressed, however, the appearance of cases not directly linked to close-proximity explosions prompted the search for a non-physical term; "neuroses" was put into use, and an epistemological link to madness was established. Finally, in the search for a more scientific label, physicians decided upon "neurasthenia," a psychiatric condition linked to exhaustion and memory loss. These three terms - shell-shock, neurasthenia, and neuroses - were used interchangeably in public, political, and military discourse throughout the war, but most of the physicians who worked in Great Britain's mental wards were less careless. Each term bore a distinct epistemological weight: shell-shock clearly implied both physical causality and temporariness, neurasthenia referred to a specific mental condition, and neuroses hinted at a psychological disease "entity." Every subsequent war since the medical "discovery" of shell-shock has occasioned another evolution in terminology, and each new term has since fought to position its particular insight alongside an epistemological backlog that accrued new facets more often than it changed form in totality. Disassembling such networks of discourse thus requires historicizing conflicting definitions. The theories of psychoanalysis put forth by Sigmund Freud loomed large for many of the figures in these debates, both as an inspiration for cerebral therapeutics and as a challenge to the conventionalism and psychological materialism of the pre-war medical establishment. In subtly adapting Freud's insights, however, the practitioners of post-Freudian psychoanalysis pushed the official discourse on shell-shock in a different direction, leading to a more sophisticated understanding that was less accepting of paradigmatic and ideological identifications of Britishness with courage, character, and mental fortitude ...<br>by Thomas C.

Abstract:
El interés de este estudio reside en examinar la obra poética de Wilfred Owen en el ámbito de su producción y tradición –especialmente desde la teoría del discurso de Mijail Bajtin y las ciencias sociales– estableciendo relaciones con los discursos de su tiempo. La investigación enmarcada así en la línea de los estudios culturales, rescata la posición del otro no integrado en el discurso oficial y que cuyas afirmaciones se adhieren o se oponen al discurso de la historia canonizado y al propuesto desde las esferas de poder en el contexto de la Gran Guerra (1914-1918). De esta manera, esta investigación tiene como propósito desarrollar una lectura de carácter dialógico de la poética de Wilfred Owen durante el conflicto a partir de sus vínculos con aparato oficialista (cristiano, nacionalista e imperialista); y, luego, con el carácter histórico del género en contraste con el discurso poético de Wilfred Owen, insertando en dichos procesos una mirada testimonial, característica del lenguaje de su poesía escrita a partir de su experiencia en el frente occidental.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the way the human body is represented in the works of two English World War poets: Wilfred Owen (1893–1918) and Keith Douglas (1920–1944). In particular, the aim of this paper is to explore differences and similarities in the ways in which these poets approach this subject matter, and also how for instance the cultural and historical background, military technology etc. of each war are represented in connection with the subject of the human body. This analysis is carried out through a close reading of a selection of these poets’ works. It also draws from existing research into the poets and their works.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the influence of Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats on the poetry of Wilfred Owen. Scholars who have noted the influence of Shelley and Keats on Owen's poetry routinely argue that Owen becomes disenchanted with Romanticism following his front-line experience during the First World War. However, Owen's poetry reveals an unwavering debt to the work of Shelley and Keats throughout his poetic career. Examining Owen's early poetry and his war elegies, this thesis charts his poetic maturation through the approach of new formalism, revealing the intricacies in his developing poetic technique and providing a detailed analysis of his use of allusion. The first chapter compares Keats and Owen's response to poetic influence through readings of Keats's The Fall of Hyperion and Owen's 'To Poesy'. The second chapter reveals how Keats and Owen use the sonnet form as a site of poetic experimentation through an analysis of poems that include Keats's 'If by dull rhymes our English must be chained' and Owen's 'Futility'. The third chapter explores how Shelley and Owen depict sympathy and empathy in Shelley's The Triumph of Life, and Owen's 'The Show' and 'Strange Meeting'. Chapter four discusses how Shelley and Owen manipulate the aesthetic conventions of the elegy through readings of Shelley's Adonais and Owen's 'I saw his round mouth's crimson', 'Greater Love', and 'Mental Cases'. The final chapter shows how Owen blends the influence of Shelley and Keats in his approach to the pastoral genre. Owen makes explicit the influence of Shelley and Keats through a generous use of allusion throughout his oeuvre. Owen relishes the challenges of his poetic inheritance, figuring it as an experience that involves struggle and exhilaration in equal measure, and he balances his duty as a Romantic heir with his drive to assert his own unique poetic voice.

Full text
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 were encouraged both to articulate their wartime memories and return to purposeful activity. The hospital's magazine, The Hydra, is examined at length; both in terms of its links to the wider genre of wartime soldier publications and as a telling document of the hospital's therapies in action. Owen and Sassoon's time at the hospital is also discussed, with particular emphasis on the hospital's central importance in Owen's poetic development and its troubling legacy in the post-war life of Sassoon. Finally, readers are introduced to George Henry Bonner, a patient of the hospital whose creative work is discussed here for the first time. This study makes clear the fact that, for the hospital's literary-minded patients, creative endeavour was an ideal means by which to negotiate the movement away from repression to the articulation of their wartime experiences.

Abstract:
The year 2014 will mark the centennial of the outbreak of World War I in August 1914. This historic anniversary will likely provoke several discussions from all fields in the humanities concerning the Great War's significance on contemporary culture through history, visual art, and in the case of this essay: literature. In light of this event, any serious discussion among scholars should undeniably begin with how the war continues to be represented today through a thorough, contemporary analysis of its many key literary texts. This essay will examine, in this regard, how past and contemporary discourses in literary theory-primarily concerned with how an individual combatant subject attempts to construct and understand their own traumatic experiences through poetic and literary discourse-can continue to incite discussion on why literature of the Great War and its influential role in defining how it has come to be understood in our cultural memory remains relevant even today. Under the guiding influence of Paul Fussell's classic The Great War and Modern Memory, I will discuss how three important works-a poetry collection, a memoir, and a modern work of historical fiction-all contribute to how the war has become represented as a tragic rupture in history that reversed the idea of human progress and left an entire generation disillusioned in its aftermath, regardless of the historical veracity of this legacy. The texts I will be examining include: select poems of Wilfred Owen, Goodbye to All That by Robert Graves, and Regeneration by Pat Barker. In addition to this, I will conclude with an analysis of how a contemporary reading of these texts can contribute to a larger discussion of the crisis of historicity in our current post-modern cultural landscape.<br>B.A.<br>Bachelors<br>English<br>Arts and Humanities
