摘　　要：The aftermath of the war had devastating consequences on people’s lives and society as a whole.In addition to the significant impact of the Great Depression on social production and living standards,it resulted in psychological trauma,unemployment,poverty,and social conflicts.As a prominent English poet that emerged after World War II,Geoffrey Hill depicted the gruesome realities of war through his early works.This article applies Cathy Caruth’s trauma theory to analyze Hill’s poem“Funeral Music.”The fragmented images and repetitive traumatic scenes restore the harsh realities of war.Furthermore,this article explores Joshua Pederson’s critical development of Caruth’s theoretical framework,providing an alternate perspective for textual analysis.
