Finally the landscape is described further with the use of sibilance (the repetition of soft consonants – in this case an ‘s’). ‘Sun-stunned, sand-smothered land’ emphasises the alien environment for the soldier and the distance from which the event still haunts him. Themes Owen uses inclusive pronouns throughout the poem, “our”, “us”, “we”. This shows the collective experience of all soldiers in the First World War. It also invites us to imagine that we are part of this group of soldiers, creating a sense of solidarity.
Through this poem Rumens is showing the reader the power that places can have over people and how we can feel forever associated with a place. Form and Structure This book can also be bought as a standalone Online Edition — we'll send you a code to redeem immediately. The theme of power and corruption is evident in many of the poems in the anthology, both on an individual and a state level. It can explore:Wordsworth also personifies the boat he is in (calling it “her”) and the mountain peak, which comes to life and chases him across the lake. Themes
art and literature are where the true, lasting power lies – the statue itself and the words inscribed on it have long outlasted Ozymandias. The first structure repeats ‘dem tell me’ and covers the white version of history taught when he was a child. This structure has lots of rhyme – with rhyming couplets, triplets and quatrains throughout. The tone in this structure is angry and rebellious. Nature– the power of nature is important. Wordsworth shows how humans can feel insignificant in comparison. Thanks for reading!

Third PartiesExposure contains lots of emotive language, a tortured tone and clever techniques. These draw the reader in and make us feel the horror and desperation of Owen and his comrades. It all starts with the title, “Exposure”. Att face value this is referring to the soldiers’ exposure to the elements and weather. However, it also refers to the soldiers’ exposure to the horrors of war. The word “exposure” also emphasises how the public in Britain are “exposed” to the realities of war. Exile– the speaker is an exile from their homeland. The lost home could also represent a lost past, or childhood. Throughout the poem Armitage uses colloquial language to make it seem as though the speaker is directly telling us his story. Phrases like, ‘On another occasion’, ‘legs it up the road’ and ‘end of story’ suggest the poem is in spoken English. ‘On another occasion’ also suggests the speaker has been through many similarly bad experiences. The phrase ‘probably armed, possibly not’ repeats to show how this guilt haunts him. Power –the power of paper in our lives to record events, ideas and memories. The poem even suggests paper has the power to change the course of our lives.
