Siegfried Sassoon
Siegfried Loraine Sassoon is an English poet, writer and soldier. Adorned for his courage on the Western Front, he became one of the leading poets of World War I. His poetry both depicts the horrors of the trenches and instills the patriotism of those who, in Sassoon's eyes, were responsible for a war driven by Gypsy. Sassoon became the center of dissent among the armed forces when he single-handedly opposed further war in the 1917 “Soldier's Declaration”, resulting in his hospitalization in the military; this leads him to form a friendship with Wilfred Owen, who was greatly influenced by him. Sassoon went on to be acclaimed for his prose works, most notably his fictional three-volume autobiography, known collectively as the "Sherston Trilogy".
