Hello,
I am a talented academic writer with a B.A. in English. I have extensive experience with exactly the sort of assignment you have detailed in this posting, as well as the ins and outs of English grammar, spelling, and punctuation. I can interpret the meaning of this poem, including the author's thoughts on war. In short, this poem is written from the perspective of a soldier who is musing on a man whom he killed in battle, realizing that in different circumstances they could have been friends. Hardy is using this poem in order to underline the dehumanizing nature of war by making the essential act of war - the killing of enemies - a very human act.
While I intend to create this essay in a way that will answer all questions within, I would like to know if there is a word or number that needs to be achieved. Also, I would assume that MLA style would be appropriate for this assignment, but I want to confirm that this is correct.
I hope to hear from you soon about this opportunity.
Thanks,
Christine Couvillon
