Synopsis
Saluting, lamenting and honoring the dead are the poet's primal tasks in all ages. Whether it be Ben Jonson pining for his son, Keats and Rilke envisaging their own demise, Wilfred Owen commemorating comrades in war, or Homer's Odysseus grieving over his dog - all give expression to the universal need for mourning.
