2: The First World War
' Wilfred Owen and most of those now known as poets of the First World War began the war writing poetry in the conventional modes of thinking and feeling that are summed up in the title " Georgian weekend Poets." It was the experience of the war which jolted them out of those conventions to find new and probably more adequate ways to express their experience.'
Radio tutor, DAVID GRUGEON
