on The Ballad Of Father Gilligan by William Butler Yeats, on June 19, 2007The poor man seemed to have died happily without the administration of the last rites. It is the poor priest whois inmortal conflict at his derilitionof duty. A case of the flesh being willing but the spirit weak in this converse.
-
on An Irish Airman Foresees His Death by William Butler Yeats, on June 19, 2007Nothing of honour and glory. Just an exhortation to the inconsequence of his possible passing, as important as a feather falling from the sky. Who would mourn his passing? Only perhaps some chance acquaintance of Kiltartan.

on The Rear-Guard by Siegfried Sassoon, on May 10, 2007Difficult to imagine a more horiffic poem exalting the `glories of war` It is things like this that veterans remember, and seldom speak of, while the people at home remember only the victory and the waving of flags.

on Sassoon's Public Statement Of Defiance by Siegfried Sassoon, on May 10, 2007A brave act for a serving oficer to comit. He could have been charged with mutiny or even treason. As it was it passod off quite uneventfully while the war (and casualties) lasted for a further three months.
