The "War Poets": Evolution of a Literary Conscience in World War I.
Galambos, Ellen
New England Social Studies Bulletin, v41 n1 p15-26 Fall 1983
Pre-World War I poetry often used picturesque images which blinded people to the actual horrors of war. The war poets, who experienced the destruction of World War I, led the way in expressing new images of the devastation and death of war, rather than focusing on honor and glory. (IS)
