Dulce et Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen (subtitled excerpt - PART 3) ▶️FULL VIDEO👉 FULL POEM VIDEO ▶️ https://youtu.be/kEYK0aiRPmg 👈

"Dulce et Decorum Est" was written by the British poet Wilfred Owen during World War I. The poem depicts the horrors of war and the harsh realities that soldiers faced on the front lines. Owen draws upon his own experiences as a soldier in the trenches, where he witnessed the devastating effects of gas attacks. He refutes the idealism in the Latin phrase "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori," meaning "It is sweet and fitting to die for one's country," a commonly held belief during the time.

Lo que tú crees que creo que se ve mal y lo que tú crees que se ve mal son dos tipos diferentes de males que tienes. Jajaja aborto lo hiciste otra vez. Aquí empieza mi freestyle. Cúrate de esa mirada. Deja de estar tan mal. De equivocarte no equivocándote. No has afinado tu criticadera mas que en la confidencia de tus seres queridos, pero cuando ves mucho texto te duele la cabeza y dices “qué fastidio, no me corrijan, etc”. No sabe rimar. Una pataleta dentro de tu crítica que solo “es” en conversación con un poder. El poder real lo tiene aquello que criticas. Porque te ponen en jaque, porque tu manera de resolver los problemas es el bostezo de hablar. La fiereza de lo que pudiste haber sido si hubieras cultivado lo que una palabra es. Persona estancada frente a una selfie o frente a la queja de las selfies y te conviertes en la bruja de Blanca Nieves antes que en la princesa. Los pro nos vemos feos y aún así nos elogian de la nada lo bello que hay en nosotros: que no se deja esconder. Los monstruos están llenos de fugas en su visión de sí mismos y tapian con ladrillos prestados de la pared que camufla al mundo los huecos de su alma vil. Esos son mis tipos de mic drop. El árbol no quema sus ramas para verse como el bosque, el bosque es la desmadrada voluntad de crecimiento del árbol que se agarra a golpes con el fuego. Entre mil productos en las estanterías tienes más letras en tu pensamiento que ellos. Además hablar en imperativos nunca sirvió sino para ser contradicho. Y toda crítica somera acaba con imperativos.

YOUTUBE CHANNEL AD MAIORA - SARA ALBANESE https://youtu.be/u0l3DtclI8w Wilfred Owen belonged to that group of War Poets who denounced the horrors of the First World War and especially "the old Lie" of propaganda: Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori, which means that dying for the motherland is sweet and glorious. In this video we analyze Owen's work and we compare it to Rupert Brooke's opposite perspective (see my video about War Poets, part 1, Rupert Brook and his sonnet "The Soldier") NON SOLO PER I #maturandi Ma anche per tutti coloro che credono nella #poesia come avvertimento, testimonianza e strumento di comunicazione #english #englishliterature #literature #war #warpoetry #warpoets #wilfredowen #owen #rupertbrooke #brooke #dulceetdecorumest #soldier #wwi #firstworldwar #propaganda #lie #englishlecture #englishclass #matura #matura2019 #maturita2019 #maturità2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/BysQckkiLp1/?igshid=fy0pp61j3pmv

Just met him this week as part of an effort to find images of the lost: Introducing Sgt. Marion F. Semrad, US Army Airforce, b. 1923, Boscobel WI, MIA 1943 along with the entire crew of his B17 Heavy Bomber during battles over the North Sea. His image will now be part of the "Faces of Margraten" biannual memorial at the US Cemetary in Margraten, Netherlands, where the Dutch have adopted the graves and honor those who liberated the Netherlands from the Nazis. 20 years old..... #facesofmargraten #war memorial #margraten #dulceetdecorumest #greatestgeneration #realitycheck #neverforget https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmi0vpgAaJ0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1w99a05rqe9p5

CANALE YOUTUBE AD MAIORA - SARA ALBANESE https://youtu.be/VgfffHUDGbg Un video a cui tengo in modo particolare. Nel registrare la versione inglese, forse per un maggiore coinvolgimento nella lirica, mi sono sinceramente commossa. La Poesia è anche e soprattutto questo: non un mucchio di deboli versi svenevoli, bensì una potenza comunicativa lacerante che sposta il lettore con la sua esplosione e lo lascia un po' stordito ma più consapevole. _____ In questo video viene analizzato Wilfred Owen e il suo componimento "Dulce et Decorum est". La categoria dei Poeti di Guerra (War Poets) si suddivide in due gruppi: il primo, rappresentato da Rupert Brooke (The Soldier), si impegnava a celebrare il patriottismo e la guerra come atto eroico, mentre il secondo, rappresentato da Wilfred Owen (Dulce et Decorum est) denunciava pesantemente gli orrori della guerra e l'inganno della propaganda. #owen #wilfredowen #dulceetdecorumest #warpoetry #warpoets #poetiinglesi #poeti #poesia #guerra #brooke #thesoldier #primaguerramondiale #grandeguerra #letteratura #letteraturainglese #analisi #lezionidiinglese #lezionidiletteratura #youtube #lezionionline #maturità #maturità2019 #maturita2019 #matura #matura2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7z8kPiVAa/?igshid=2dgcj57mvcp5

Simple Key Skill #3: Patterning

by Benjamin Gregg

Sometimes very simple lessons can unlock whole new ways of seeing. In the first simple lesson I proposed there was power in richly describing elements rather than simply naming them. In the second, I proposed that images and other texts could be opened up richly for exploration by considering their individual elements out of context, and then putting them back in the context of the full text. In this third lesson, I propose that we teach students to search for patterns in texts. Exploring for patterns is particularly useful as a next step to all of the describing and isolating that students may have done through the first two lessons.

Start simply by giving students a really easy patterning task such as this grocery list. What patterns might we find in this list?

milk eggs yogurt butter flour orange juice tomatoes low sodium soy sauce onions garlic bacon stamps maple syrup ground beef light bulbs AAA batteries thin linguine

So while there are a few obvious ones that might come up first - breakfast, dairy, meat, italian food, there isn’t any one pattern or set of patterns that is correct. Just keep going, showing kids that there can be multiple and overlapping patterns to things. Note that having butter in the pattern of dairy doesn’t mean it can’t also be in the pattern of breakfast. Note that some items may not clearly fit into any patterns, like the stamps. Note that some patterns are objective such as “meat” or “vegetables” while others are culturally constructed like “breakfast” which we might assume includes bacon and not linguine but that could look very different for someone else. A simple grocery list here opens up a wide ranging discussion of strong and weak patterns, overlapping patterns, and exceptions to patterns.

Having established that a single work can have multiple overlapping patterns, and having established that some of these patterns are more objective, some more subjective, students can turn to a text. There are two general approaches you might use, depending on your students and on your text.

GIVE THEM PATTERNS TO TEST - One of my favorite images to teach from is this very famous portrait of the poet Li Bai (shown whole on the left and then zooming in on the face). Here are two patterns I might ask students to detail and to test. Can they build lists for each? Do the titles or boundaries of the patterns stand up to the test of objectivity? What areas create uncertainty in terms of managing or fulfilling these patterns?

Pattern 1: Elements that are depicted / present in the image Pattern 2: Elements that are not depicted / absent from image

ASK THEM TO FIND PATTERNS - Usually a more advanced move, asking students to find real and useful patterns in a text is a great way to approach a text without biasing them one way or another. Rather than say something like “what does this image tell us about social class distinctions?” just ask them to find patterns and see what happens. Here are two poems I’ve used in wrapping up a study of World War I. I asked students to find patterns in these and we could have worked with what they found for three days. Generally a good idea to start with one item, flesh out some interesting pattern possibilities, remembering that nothing need be settled one way or the other. Then give them a second and watch the fireworks.

POEM 1: England to Free Men by John Galsworthy

MEN of my blood, you English men! From misty hill and misty fen, From cot, and town, and plough, and moor, Come in—before I shut the door! Into my courtyard paved with stones That keep the names, that keep the bones, Of none but English men who came Free of their lives, to guard my fame. I am your native land who bred No driven heart, no driven head; I fly a flag in every sea Round the old Earth, of Liberty! I am the Land that boasts a crown; The sun comes up, the sun goes down— And never men may say of me, Mine is a breed that is not free. I have a wreath! My forehead wears A hundred leaves—a hundred years I never knew the words: “You must!” And shall my wreath return to dust? Freemen! The door is yet ajar; From northern star to southern star, O ye who count and ye who delve, Come in—before my clock strikes twelve!

POEM 2: Dulce et Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen

Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs And towards our distant rest began to trudge. Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind; Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.

Gas! Gas! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling, Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time; But someone still was yelling out and stumbling And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime... Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light, As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.

In all my dreams, before my helpless sight, He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

If in some smothering dreams you too could pace Behind the wagon that we flung him in, And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin; If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs, Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,— My friend, you would not tell with such high zest To children ardent for some desperate glory, The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est Pro patria mori.

Here the patterning exercise is amplified by a comparison / contrast exercise to reveal questions of nationalism and identity, notions of war and citizenship, the modern, and all manner of other possible interesting explorations.

The greatest rewards come when students discover patterns that are strong - that is, clearly present and integral to the work - but that don’t fit with each other exactly. Patterns that clash or resonate against each other in interesting ways, even as you test them, are gold in terms of analysis. Establishing these contrasting patterns as the basis for a claim will be my next discussion.
