Résumé

Résumé : "Songs of the Army of the Night" by Francis Adams is a compelling collection of poems that delves into the social injustices and struggles faced by the working class in the late 19th century. The work is divided into three parts: "England," "Here and There," and "Australia," each reflecting the author's experiences and observations in different regions. The first part, "England," is characterized by a tone of desperation and fierce critique of the social and economic disparities prevalent in the country. Adams vividly portrays the plight of the laborers, the exploitation by the capitalist class, and the urgent need for social reform. The second part, "Here and There," captures the author's travels in the East, where he witnesses the shift of British imperialism and expresses a deep-seated anger towards the injustices inflicted upon colonized nations. The final section, "Australia," offers a more hopeful perspective, highlighting the potential for change and the possibility of a fairer society. Throughout the collection, Adams employs powerful imagery and emotive language to convey his message, urging readers to recognize the systemic issues and join the fight for equality and justice. His work serves as both a critique of the existing social order and a call to action for a better future.
