About Wilfred Owen

Wilfred Owen (1893–1918) was an English poet of the First World War, born in Oswestry, Shropshire. Commissioned as an officer in the British Army, he was treated for shell shock at Craiglockhart War Hospital in Edinburgh, where he met Siegfried Sassoon. His poems include Dulce et Decorum Est, Strange Meeting, and Anthem for Doomed Youth, written in pararhyme. Only five of his poems appeared in print during his lifetime. He was killed in action on November 4, 1918, one week before the Armistice. The posthumous collection Poems, introduced by Sassoon and assisted by Edith Sitwell, was published by Chatto and Windus in 1920.
