In the title, Yeats specify that the speaker is Irish. How does knowing what you do about the history of conflict between Ireland and England, help you understand the airman's attitude towards the war in which he fights?

Answer:

The conflict involving England and Ireland was the result of years of tension and intrigue that culminated in the armed conflict to determine whether Ireland would be able to achieve independence. The conflict was intensified by the feeling of patriotism between the two nations. This patriotism is shown in the poem in the lines "My country is Kiltartan Cross". However, the result of the war would not bring differences to people's lives, especially the poorest and without influence as the speaker shows in the lines "No likely end could bring them loss / Or leave them happier than before." This discouraged men from fighting in a war to defend and fight people they do not love or hate, as can be seen in the lines "Those that I fight I do not hate, Those that I guard I do not love."

Explanation:

This question is about the poem "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" that shows the thoughts of a soldier who knows that his destiny will be to die in a war that is insignificant for him, since it will not promote any change in the life of his fellow citizens, besides not to fight someone he considers an enemy.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 2, scene 1.

BRUTUS. It must be by his death: and for my part
I know no personal cause to spurn at him
But for the general. He would be crowned:
How that might change his nature, there’s the question.
It is the bright day that brings forth the adder,*
And that craves wary walking. Crown him that,
And then I grant we put a sting in him
That at his will he may do danger with.

*An adder is a snake.

Which summary of the passage is the best?

Brutus wants Caesar to die.

Brutus compares Caesar to a snake.
The snake comes out in the sunshine. People must be very careful when walking around the sunning snake. Crown Caesar and I agree that we may be giving him the power to sting us.

What information from the excerpt is ironic?

that the women arrived after their husbands
