Extractions: Wilfred Owen (1893-1918) Wilfred Edward Salter Owen was born on March 18, 1893. He was on the Continent teaching until he visited a hospital for the wounded and then decided, in September, 1915, to return to England and enlist. "I came out in order to help these boys directly by leading them as well as an officer can; indirectly, by watching their sufferings that I may speak of them as well as a pleader can. I have done the first" (October, 1918). Owen was injured in March 1917 and sent home; he was fit for duty in August, 1918, and returned to the front. November 4, just seven days before the Armistice, he was caught in a German machine gun attack and killed. He was twenty-five when he died. The bells were ringing on November 11, 1918, in Shrewsbury to celebrate the Armistice when the doorbell rang at his parent's home, bringing them the telegram telling them their son was dead. the poetry © Emory University

Extractions: [Content] www.literaryheritage.org.uk Home People Places Themes ... Site map Poet; born at Plas Wilmot, a large house in Weston Lane, Oswestry , belonging to his maternal grandparents. After their deaths Owen's father, a railway worker, obtained a job in Birkenhead (Wilfred was then four years of age) so the family moved there. In 1907 Mr. Owen was transferred to Shrewsbury and they rented a house, firstly at 1 Cleveland Place and later at 71 Monkmoor Road, a house which they named Mahim (the house has a commemorative plaque to Wilfred Owen). Wilfred, already an aspiring poet, attended Shrewsbury Technical School but was unable to go to university, in spite of passing the London University Matriculation, because of financial restrictions. He taught for a short time at the elementary school on Wyle Cop in Shrewsbury before going to Dunsden in Oxfordshire as lay assistant to the vicar, an appointment which led to him coming close to suffering a nervous breakdown. Then followed a period in France as a private family tutor during which time war broke out with Germany. In 1915 he enlisted in the Artists Rifles and was later commissioned into the Manchester Regiment. He was posted to France in 1916, the year of the Somme offensive, and endured the awful hardship and horror of life and death in the trenches. These experiences, not surprisingly, changed him dramatically. In fact he changed from a rather effeminate and not entirely likeable youth to a man who cared deeply and unselfishly for the safety and welfare of his fellow soldiers.

Extractions: During World War I, men went to the trenches as merely men. However, out of some of those trenches, out of the smoke and the spray of shrapnel, crawled some of the finest poets of the twentieth century. One such poet was Wilfred Owen, whose war poems, many of which were composed on the front line, have still kept their originality and strength over the years. He managed to shock and horrify us with the nightmare of war, while creating a passionate, sensual undercurrent to awaken the senses. Owen is perhaps one of the finest poets shaped by World War I, who, in return, shaped the way we look at war. Wilfred Owen was born in Oswestry, England on March 18th, 1893. His family was middle class with one sister and two brothers. His mother was a deeply religious Calvinist who remained very close to Wilfred for most of his life. His father was an independent, impatient man who enjoyed reading and music. Both parents had a profound affect on Wilfred's life. As a child, he studied botany, archaeology, and read a great deal. At the time of his death, over 325 volumes of poets such as Dante, Chaucer, Goethe, Cowper, Southey, Gray, Collins, Keats, Shelley, Coleridge, Burns, Browning, and Tennyson, were found in his own personal collection. Although he couldn't afford a University education, he studied at Shrewsbury Technical School until 1911, when he went to Dunsden, Oxfordshire, as a pupil and lay assistant to the vicar. It was in Dunsden, visiting the rural slums of Oxfordshire, that he was brought up against the cruelest facts of life such as sickness, squalor, and poverty far worse than the middle class family he was brought up in. This experience helped to knock holes in his introspective view of life. It is in his early letters from Dunsden that the convicted, compassionate force that drives through the war poems got its start. Before this and the war, much of his poems were very Keatsian, glowing with grandeur like technicolor sunsets. They were airy and dreamy, like the poems of the average adolescent aspiring poet. Dunsden was probably the first time his poems began to pick up more substance.

Extractions: Pro patria mori." World War I began with great fanfare with long columns of smiling soldiers parading off to war wearing dress uniforms with flowers sticking out of the muzzles of their rifles. Everyone expected it to be over quickly and the heroes returned soon with shiny new metals pinned to their chests. Unfortunately, it did not turn out this way. The war lasted year after year and millions and millions of combatants and non-combatants died. Men lived in rat-infested subterranean holes along muddy and trenches that stretched for miles and fought vicious battles that had little glory and much senseless death. Soldiers thought the war might never end and that their children would grow up to take their place in the carnage of the wreaking trenches. WWI marked the first use of chemical weapons, mass bombardments from the sky on civilian targets, the first genocide. WWI was the true beginning of this our 20th century of spectacular crimes. In the middle of January 1917, Owen was transferred to the hell of the trenches in France where his outlook on life changed permanently. In late April, Owen found himself stranded in a badly shelled forward position for days looking at the scattered pieces of a fellow officer's body (2/Lt. Gaukroger). He was diagnosed with "neurasthenia" and evacuated from the front to Craiglockhart War Hospital near Edinburgh where he wrote most of his great poetry while convalescing. Owens was bitterly enraged at the senseless killing of the battlefields and the inability of anyone (especially the church) to stop it. He felt enormous pity for his fellow soldiers who suffered, fought, and died in the mud and misery of the trenches. He was horrified at what his sharp poet's eye saw at the front. Owen started the war a cheerful and optimistic man but during the two years of war he was changed forever. This is all immortalized in his famous poetry.

Extractions: poet, patriot, solider, pacifist "My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity." Wilfred Owen, one of approximately 9,000,000 millions fatalities in World War I, was killed in action on the Sambre Canal just seven days before the Armistice on November 4, 1918. He was caught in a German machine gun blast and killed. He was twenty-five years old. Teaching in continental Europe in 1915, Owen visited a hospital and became acquainted with many of the war's wounded. Deeply affected by these visits, the 22 year-old young Owen and he decided to enlist in the British Army. Owen described his decision to enlist in September, 1915: "I came out in order to help these boysdirectly by leading them as well as an officer can; indirectly, by watching their sufferings that I may speak of them as well as a pleader can. I have done the first." Owen was injured in March 1917 and sent home; he was fit for duty in August, 1918, and returned to the front where he was killed shortly afterwards.

Extractions: The eldest son of a railway clerk, Wilfred Edward Salter Owen was born in Oswestry (England) in 1893 and grew up in Birkenhead and Shrewsbury. An early interest in poetry was encouraged by his ambitious and possessive mother who was a devout evangelical Anglican (his father was disappointed that Wilfred did not seem likely to take up a trade), and he absorbed the works of Shakespeare and Romantic poets such as Keats, before starting to write poetry himself. When, in 1912, Wilfred failed to win a scholarship to London University he became an unpaid lay assistant in the parish of Dunsden near Reading. Sadly, he did not receive the tuition he had hoped would enable him to make a second attempt at winning a scholarship; and it wasn't long before he resigned his post and rejected his orthodox beliefs. In 1913 he travelled to Bordeaux and took a poorly paid job teaching English in the Berlitz School. This led to a private tutoring post in the Pyrenees, where he met the poet Laurent Tailhade who encouraged him to continue writing. When war was declared he was indecisive about returning to England because of the supposed dangers of crossing the Channel during wartime. However, he eventually made his way back in September 1915 and promptly enlisted in the Artists' Rifles, where he met Harold Monro, in whose Poetry Bookshop Wilfred spent many happy hours (he also took lodgings there); and some months after being comissioned in the Manchester Regiment, Wilfred was shipped over to France, where in early 1917 he joined the 2nd Manchesters on the Somme. Trench warfare affected Wilfred and his poetry profoundly.

After some years of teaching English in France, Owen returned to England and joined the army. He was wounded in 1917 and killed in action leading an attack a few days before the armistice was declared in 1918. Owen's poems, published only after his death, along with his letters from the front to his mother, are perhaps the most powerful and vivid accounts of the horror of war to emerge from the First World War.
