The English poets Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon wrote many of the war's best-known poems that stunningly revealed how the war affected soldiers on the front lines. Participants will read and discuss a dozen or so of these poets' works.

Doug Rose taught War and Literature at SUNY Canton for over 20 years and previously offered this course in the Fall 2018 as well as "Poetry of the Great War" in the Fall of 2012.

Special Instructions:

Poems will be sent out by email to members by the course Ambassador prior to our first class meeting. A few extra copies will be available.
