This picture is Virginia Woolf. This picture represents the author who wrote “Mrs. Dalloway”. In the book, she talks about people who experience life in war at a young age and when they retire they experience mental issues like PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). This is similar in “Dulce Et Decorum Est” because it tells young adults or even children to persuade them thinking going to war is okay and you are being a hero in a way but they don’t tell you the mental trauma behind going to war. For example in lines, “To children ardent for some desperate glory,”. So the word “glory” could suggest that they think they are going to be a hero or a brave person for just going to war. This could also mean that the author wants the reader to know that adults are persuading children to be a part of the idea of violence.
