Personification plays serious role in Wilfred Owen " Anthemem for Doomed Youth" , elaborate.
Owen uses personification as a tool to express his anger and disgust for the war. The "Dead" are humanized to emphasis their powerlessness, in opposition to the weaponry which has a life of its own.
Examples of personification:
What passing-bells for these who die as cattle? / Only the monstrous anger of the guns
"The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells".... demented meaning the evil.
"Monstrous anger of the guns" illustrates that it isn't the soldiers who were angry, but rather, the guns.
