Here is a link that explains the background of the poem, who wrote it, etc. http://72.14.253.104/search?q= cache:-CA8IQ6aA7UJ:www.arlingt oncemetery.net/flanders.htm+fl anders+field&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd= 1&gl=us What this won't tell you is "why" the poem is still so popular today. The reason for its popularity is that it is a simple poem that says much in very few lines. It basically says that the dead will not rest unless those who follow after them are willing to carry on the fight they gave up their lives for...that the "battle" against good and evil is never won and that the fallen soldier will only truly rest when they know those who come after them have not forgotten the reason they fought and died. Think of Viet Nam, Korea, Bosnia, Somalia, Iraq...in each of these cases soldiers have died and in each case those who came back said their biggest fear was that nobody would know "they" sacrificed all they had so that others would be safe. There will always be an "enemy", there will always be tyrannts, and there will always be the fallen. This is why it is still so "popular"...the combination of its message, the motivation behind the man who wrote it, and its longevity all contribute to its popularity. |
