    COMPARE AND CONTRAST “DISABLED” BY WILFRED OWEN AND “OUT‚ OUT-”BY ROBERT FROST. IN WHAT WAYS DO THEY EXPLORE THE THEME OF PAIN AND SUFFERING? These two poems are very different in terms of syntax‚ structure and actions‚ but the tone is the same in each.

They are connected in this way despite being thrown out of life differently (and because of different

    Explore how the play Macbeth explores the nature of evil. Macbeth is a play whereby perversion of values take place. Like the witches’ chant of "Fair is foul and foul is fair‚ hover through the fog and filthy air"‚ it suggests that they are chanting the curse on Macbeth- from a good man to an evil man‚ who thinks that doing good is evil and doing evil is good. The play is where temptations rule over one’s moral values‚ as supported by the fact that for kingship‚ Macbeth turned evil to murder

    Section One I have chosen two poems that have been studied to be analysed. The first poem is ‘In Westminster Abbey’ by John Betjeman and the second one is ‘Dulce Et Decorum Est’ by Wilfred Owen. The reason why I choose these two poems is because I have this tendency to be into war poems and am interested in how the poets used satire in them. Satire is a powerful literature concept that can be used to address the fault in our society by using satiric devices such as humour‚ irony‚ invective‚ parody

"Bent double‚ like old beggars under sacks‚ knock-kneed‚ coughing like hags" They had been
