__________________

》》In the story, "After Blenheim" which was written by Robert Southey is an anti war poem . This poem is set at the site of the Battle of Blenheim(1704),with the questions of two small children about a skull one of them has found. Their grandfather, an old man, tells them of burned homes, civilian casualties and rotting corpses, while repeatedly calling it "a famous victory". The poem depicts the common man's ignorance of the motives of wars.
But the main theme of the stories are:-
<>Man's cruelty to Man
<>Curiosity and Lack of it
<>Complacency

》》The poem is named so because it contains a short story of Blenheim after the War of Spanish Succession (1704-1715) which was fought between the England and French in the country of Blenheim. This war caused loss of many innocent lives.
