How does Duffy’s treatment of themes of war and death involve the reade

sing Ann Duffys verse form War Photographer shows the intent and actions of a photographer and portrays how unappreciative we argon of what the photographer has to infer and go through to take photographs. The poem shows that photographers are doing their duty, but we are not reacting to the photographs in the way that we should be. War photographer tries to put a assign across to make us realise that warfare is wrong and the exoteric have become change to it. War in the media does not impact us as practically as it should do. The editors use gory pictures to coke the readers as something that is disturbing shows the darker side of humanity. While the editors put in pictures of raft suffering and facing death, their best interests are not for the people in the picture, but are in the readers, as the more shocking the pictures are the more people buy the paper. That fact that we buy papers because of the hard-core photos show us how much we have become hardened to war and that there is also a small element of enjoyment when we see the pictures. This is reflected in the editors of the Sunday Supplements who choose the five or six photos for the 100 agonies. Through issue the poem Duffy has used symbolism of words to create an ominous feel. In the first paragraph of the poem the photographer is in the darkroom where The lonesome(prenominal) get by is red. The darkroom symbolises hatred, evil and death which ties in with the red light which symbolises death and blood. Also conveying the theme is the photographer, who has spools of suffering set out in ordered rows. which portrays mass murder and thousand of graves as does all flesh is grass which shows how people are seen as dispensable grass can re-grow, which means that people are nev... ... that is never mop up and wants us to realise this so we can try to break the cycle. Carol Anne Duffy uses the War Photographer to portray the destruction and devastation that the war tends to br ing. I get the idea that the photographer doesnt really enjoy his job as he has painful memories as he remembers the cries this shows that seeing people last is something that he never forgot about. The war photographer is going through a lot of emotional pain and damage to take war photographs, Duffy uses the poem to show that the readers do not appreciate him nearly as much as they should do. Duffy has a view that war is filled with pain and that people in peaceful society cant really get word the full impact of war and therefore we have become hardened to it and need to do something to stop the disaster in other countries from retell itself over and over.
