Descrição

We begin the Course on War and Conflict in poetry with an analysis of Exposure by Wilfred Owen. This mind map examines the key phrases from each of the verses and presents an analysis of the language, meaning and technique employed by the writer.

Descrição

Next we move to My Last Duchess by Robert Browning. Our mind map looks at the key themes and styles employed in the poem. Learn how the structure of the poem is controlled like the Duke and explore the ambiguous language used.

Descrição

Ozymandias is in many ways a poem with straightforward themes that a student can identify relatively quickly. The folly of the once great King, "Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair" is now laid low for all to see. Learn more in our mind map.

Descrição

In the mind map we examine the poem Kamikaze verse by verse. The language used is examined to show the true meaning and impact the writer is trying to achieve. Whilst simple in structure and language, the poem conveys real emotion and despair.

Our second mind map on the Charge of the Light Brigade delves a little deeper into the poem. The themes of movement and heroism are very apparent throughout, and our mind map takes a look at these themes and highlights the key references.
