Siegfried Loraine Sassoon, an English poet and soldier, is renowned for his poignant poetry that captures the brutal realities of World War I while critiquing the jingoism that fueled the conflict. His "Soldier's Declaration" in 1917 marked a significant protest against the war, leading to his admission to a psychiatric hospital. Beyond poetry, Sassoon gained recognition for his prose, particularly the "Sherston trilogy," a semi-autobiographical work that further explores his experiences and views during the war.
