Teacher:In this task you will be given a text passage from a trivia quiz. You should choose the category this question belongs to from these categories: History, Science, Social Science, Fine Arts, Literature. You can only choose one category, so if in doubt, please choose the closest match.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: This event is represented by Abram sacrificing his son in "The Parable of the Old Man and the Young." In a poem about this event, a boy who is tired of the "crumps and lice and lack of rum" commits suicide. That poem is by Siegfried Sassoon. In an unevenly structured poem describing this event, the speaker invokes blood as "obscene as cancer" and repeats the word "drowning". That speaker cries that the reader would not tell to "children ardent for some desperate glory" the title "old lie" about this event, "Dulce et Decorum est". For 10 points, name this period during which Wilfred Owen's "Anthem for a Doomed Youth" lamented "What passing-bells for these who die as cattle".
