ROMANTICISM AND WORLD WAR ONE

Up till 1914 - war was romanticized - Kipling one of the worse at it
At the beginning - of THAT WAR , Kipling with other ' romanticizes '.
Were had at it - spinning THE WAR , hard selling - as they could. Kipling
belivde his own shit! So much so , he brainwashed his own son , aged 19.
To joine the glory's fight - for god , King , empire!
His son went off to war - never to return - home - in glory! To the bosom of his family. Never to rest in the grave of a hero! Kipling and his wife spent years , hopping
their son would return - a hope never to be realized! And no war-grave to put flowers on.
Before THE WARS END , the maces - learned - the hard way - THAT WAR - was - not as romantics such as the likes of - Kipling had wrote - was not at all like what he wrote at all!
World War One - the death of romancing death and in war!
