    Written Assignment - Literary Terms and Imagery
    World War I was almost certainly the most horrible war ever fought because of the deadly combination of new weapons and old strategies. In one battle lasting only a few days (the third battle of Ypres), one side of the war (the Allies) had 300,000 soldiers killed in only a few square miles of battle ground. One of the most terrible weapons used was poison gas, which entered the lungs and created a chemical reaction that that caused an extremely painful death. The poet Wilfred Owen was a British soldier in World War I, and he wrote a poem about it. (See the content area for a link to the poem.)
    Write a description of the techniques Owen uses as a part of his voice in this poem. Explain how Owens personal feelings about the war come through in his voice. Be sure to talk about the literary terms you learned and the use of imagery. Give specific examples. Your description should be at least 300 words long. The more examples you use, the better.

    So what do YOU think Owen was trying to say in his work ?
