Abstract
Ted Hughes' poetry creation is generally divided into four stages: early, middle, middle and late, and late due to the change of subject matter. Early and mid-term poetry highlighted the opposition and isolation between nature and people, while mid-to-late poetry delved into the complex and profound relationship between nature and society. This article will study the war poetry of Ted Hughes, and discuss the specific impact of war on Hughes ’poetry creation, and the close relationship with the history of British society at that time.
