The poem "Dulce et Decorum Est," by Wilfred Owen

          Discuss numerous poems and short stories selected from our Literature and Society anthology in the section titled “Peace and War” (pages 941-1125). Choose one of the works assigned in this Module and address one of the prompts below. It’s not enough to just repeat back all we discussed--go beyond what we have already covered, further developing our reading of the poem or story. You may use outside (secondary) sources to develop your reading of the work, but be sure to use credible, scholarly sources and be sure to cite them. The Prompt: Explicate the poem. How do various elements of the poem work together to create the poem’s meaning? How does the poem’s theme relate to war?
