Resumen: "Poems of the Great War" by Various is a collection of poetry published in the early 20th century, specifically during the onset of World War I. This anthology compiles the works of several English poets who contributed their verses to support the Prince of Wales's National Relief Fund, a charity aimed at helping those affected by the war. The poems reflect the themes of duty, sacrifice, patriotism, and the collective emotional response to the pressures and horrors of war. The collection showcases a diverse range of poetic voices and perspectives on the impact of the Great War. Each poem encapsulates the thoughts and feelings of individuals grappling with the realities of conflict, from calls to arms and reflections on bravery, to the anguished lament of loss. Poets like Robert Bridges and Rudyard Kipling utilize rich imagery and stirring rhetoric to convey the urgency and moral imperative of standing up for one’s country. The overall tone ranges from somber meditation to passionate exhortation, capturing the spirit of a nation on the brink of turmoil while also expressing a universal longing for peace amidst the chaos of war.
