 | | Stephen Crane: The Art of Love and War | | by Ebey Soman, Nov 9, 2008 | | Crane’s fascination with war and his delicate styles of writing makes his poems appealing to many people. To truly understand and explain Stephen Crane’s Poems, one must take a closer look at his background. Stephen Crane’s background, his styles, his fascination with war and his messages in his poems made his books and poems an inspiration for many people. His works and how he related to war made him a “Speaker for the Dead”, for people to truly understand what the cost of wear is and the wages of war. He wanted to show to the world the beast, the “God of war” that was dominating their lives. He wanted them to understand that war has costs. He wanted them to see that every action of war has prices to pay and that every price can be very costly. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 5 |
