Rebecca Hawkins: Mother and Child

This statue is a memorial dedicated to all the victims of South Korean war crimes committed during the Vietnam War. The BBC did a great article on the this and the background of this statue, which <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/extra/lhrjrs9z9a/vietnam-1968">can be read here</a>. However, please be warned that it includes interviews with women who were repeatedly sexually assaulted and then ostracised by their communities as a consequence of this. It's heart breaking stuff, but the ones who need to talk about it don't. Due to the Koreans historically always being the victims of conflicts and never the aggressor, a large proportion of the Korean population believe that they are incapable of committing atrocities against other people and that all the evidence proving this is just lies and propaganda. Because of this, they have never apologised to Vietnam for the crimes they have committed during their time there. Ironically, this fact has been used by the Japanese as an excuse to not apologised for the crimes they committed against Korea in WW2, so this refusal to acknowledge their own pass wrongs has only perpetuated the historical animosity felt by many countries in the region.

I think this is one of those cases where less is more. It's not like most depictions of hand to hand combat where both combatants are striking a fighting pose. It doesn't over or underplay the damage done. The faces aren't stoic or heroic. It is simply a man being stabbed, and it's all the more haunting for it. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Dix">Otto Dix</a> was a German painter and printmaker from the early 20th century who was best known for the artwork he created based on his experiences of fighting on the Western Front during World War One.

The longer you look at this image, the more haunting it gets. I think it's the eyes, those eyes full of fear, pain and confusion just burning straight through you. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_Dix">Otto Dix</a> was a German painter and printmaker from the early 20th century who was best known for the artwork he created based on his experiences of fighting on the Western Front during World War One.

Greater Love

GREATER LOVE Rolling and rolling there Where God seems not to care: WILFRED OWEN Adapted by George Pratt Your dear voice is not dear, Gentle, and evening clear, And though your hand be pale, As theirs whom none now hear, Paler are all which trail Red lips are not so red As the stained stones kissed by the English dead. Kindness of wooed and wooer Šeems shame to their love pure. Your cross through flame and hail: O Love, your eyes lose lure When I behold eyes blinded in my stead! Your voice sings not so soft, Though even as wind murmuring through raftered loft,- Weep, you may weep, Till the fierce love they bear Cramps them in death's extreme decreptitude. Your slender attitude Heart, you were never hot Now earth has stopped their piteous mouths that coughed Trembles not exquisite like limbs knife-skewed, Nor large, nor full like hearts made great with shot; for you may touch them not.

Dulce Et Decorum Est

The final Latin line in the poem, "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori" translates into "How sweet and fitting it is to die for one's country" and comes from the Roman Poet, Quintus Horatius Flaccus. For those interested, the full stanza that this line comes from is this. Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori: (How sweet and fitting it is to die for one's country:) mors et fugacem persequitur virum (Death pursues the man who flees) nec parcit inbellis iuventae (spares not the hamstrings or cowardly backs) poplitibus timidoque tergo. (Of battle-shy youths.) Ode III 2.13

Soldier's Dream

When I was in school, many years ago now, it was a compulsory part of the curriculum for pupils to study WW1 poetry and the work of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon has always stuck with me. Since I've found some of their poems in a suitable format, I thought I'd share them here as I don't know how well known they are outside of the UK and I thought that you guys might find it interesting.
