Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 40
Abstract
World War I took place on vast geographical theatres and one of those is Gallipoli. In this enormously man- and supply-demanding war, the troops under the English flag were comprised of soldiers from British colonies and commonwealth. One of these soldiers was Francis Edward Ledwidge. This study examines the life of Francis Edward Ledwidge, who was in Gallipoli as an Irish soldier in the English army, and his maturation as a poet, in terms of socio-political conditions of the period on Ledwidge’s sentimental world and on his taking the decision to join the war. This study also presents the images peculiar to the poet and the poems where such images emerge and the background for these images to appear in particular poems.
