Hello!
Je vous envoie mon oral de Bac sur le thème del'idée de progrès Mythes et héros. Je souhaiterais avoir une correction, s'il vous plaît. Au fur et à mesure des corrections apportées, je posterai le texte remanié.
Par avance, merci.
"A hero is a person who is admired for their courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. The soldier is a symbol of the hero because of his bravour, determination and honour during the war. Indeed, he fights up to the death. Yet, he can represent himself the horror, the massacres and the destructions of war.
How does the soldier can be seen differently?
I would like to begin with three documents which give a heroic image of the soldier. In the document A, we read the tribute of London to WW1 soldiers. «London was plunged into darkness» to commmorate their sacrifice. A beam of light coming from Westminster was present as the symbol of hope.
The document B is the moving testimony of an English soldier who goes in ship from England to France during the WW1. He is homesick, hopeless, saying: «We weren't in England and we weren't in France.»
Finally, the document C is the gloomy description of a bombed village, through the eye of an horrified, who sees the wounded, the destructed streets and houses.
James Blunt, who served in army, sings the horror of war. He accuses God of not helping the population who is in pray to the slaughters. Moreover, soldiers are criticized for being cowards, massacring victims, bombing towns and bringing fear. The title of the song is clear: soldiers have «No bravery».
The soldier is traditionnaly seen as a hero who hasn't fear of death and who protects his country in hard conditions. But, he represents war also through its worst characteristics: bloodshed, massacres, despair, darkness. I think a soldier is necessarily brave, bold and helpful ; those who are depicted in the song of James Blunt wear simply military uniforms."
