Charge Of The Light Brigade

Charge of the Light Brigade

by Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Alfred, Lord Tennyson's "Charge of the Light Brigade" is a powerful and moving poem that commemorates the tragic and heroic charge of the British Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava during the Crimean War. The poem captures the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers who rode into a seemingly impossible situation, ultimately suffering heavy losses. It explores themes of obedience, courage, and the senselessness of war. Tennyson's vivid imagery and use of rhythm and rhyme create a stirring and lasting impression on the reader.
