Summary "Oxford poetry, 1919" by T. W. Earp, Siegfried Sassoon, and Dorothy L. Sayers is a collection of poetry published in the early 20th century, specifically within the context of the post-World War I era. The anthology features a diverse range of poems from various authors associated with Oxford University, reflecting the social, political, and personal impacts of the time. The likely overarching topic of the book revolves around themes of loss, remembrance, and the search for identity in a changed world following the devastation of war. The collection includes contributions from a number of noteworthy poets, each presenting their unique perspectives and styles. Themes of love, nature, and existential contemplation are prevalent, with poems that evoke a sense of yearning and sorrow reflective of the aftermath of conflict. For instance, pieces like Vera Brittain's "To a V.C." poignantly address the costs of heroism, while “The Song of Strength” by P. H. B. Lyon celebrates human resilience and the spirit of recovery. Overall, "Oxford poetry, 1919" serves not only as a literary reflection of its time but also as a poignant exploration of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
