Composers use language to create images
Composers use language to arrive at images that transmit main ideas and fit richness and depth to their texts BY Chrts961 Composers Wilfred Owen, writer of poems Futility and Exposure, and Jessie Pope writer of Whos for the game? use a diverse range of language techniques in their poems to create images to communicate main ideas . AII words in their poems are important because the way these poets use language is exactly in description which may be used to create tone, atmosphere or mood or simply to add richness and depth to their texts.Wilfred Owens Futility is about the existence of mankind. From the beginning of Futility we feel a rather merely sense of emotion and feeling, but towards the end of the poem as the narrator starts to question things we begin to feel how distressed he becomes full nerved Still lovesome Too hard to stir? Was it for this day grew tall? O what made fatuous sunbeams toil to break Earths sleep at all? These rhetorical questions fate to us the sen se of urgency being felt for the soldiers life. Ultimately, the composer uses rhetorical questions to communicate deeper emotions. In the second stanza of Exposure, Owen uses a clear description of he sound that the roll out makes by dint of the barbed wire like twitching agonies of men among its brambles. The use of simile helps to create the extreme horror of no mans land and connects with the idea of the gloss Exposure.Although Whos for the game? Which is composed by Jessie Pope is about a serious topic, he helps us see the bright side to a war. This is done through rhyme. The use of rhyme gives a musical element in the poem and when combined with a serious topic it would feel as if the poem is toilsome to fire you up to go sign up and fight for your country in war. Wholl give his country a hand? And who wants a seat in the stand? suggests exactly this. Where is the love?
