The Use of Metaphor in Wilfred Owen's Anti-War Poetry
2023
Overview
This study investigates the English Trench poet Wilfred Owen's distinctive use of metaphor to help him express his attitude towards war. In almost all his poetry, Owen attacks the idea of war showing the horrible effects of war on both parties taking part in military actions. He even mocks the traditional slogans of bravery and patriotism attributed to war. The poet uses all forms of metaphor, especially the extended metaphor, audio and visual, to transmit the hopelessness and absurdity of the idea of war to his readers. In order to transplant a feeling of irony within his readers, Owen uses the metaphor to describe the terrifying atmosphere of military actions stressing mass destruction resulting from that catastrophic phenomenon in the life of man in modern times.
