The 1920\u2019s song \u201cStardust\u201d exemplifies the other worldly feeling towards the unknown and mysterious extraterrestrial creatures people often see in the image. In his work, Lewis makes various connections to the themes of the dehumanization of World War I, essentially exploring the idea of the \u201csavage\u201d, particularly when considering the lack of recognition Indian troops received for their contributions even though they made terrific sacrifices.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-4  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_third  \" style='border-radius:0px; '><div  class='avia-video avia-video-16-9   av-lazyload-immediate  av-lazyload-video-embed  '   itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d6pYRXltYck&amp;list=PL8iLUOfZQZyWQD-Hq6cwoiS4kQDhsBJRO' ><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PL8iLUOfZQZyWQD-Hq6cwoiS4kQDhsBJRO&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&mute=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding first  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_third  column-top-margin\" style='border-radius:0px; '><div  class='avia-video avia-video-16-9   av-lazyload-immediate  av-lazyload-video-embed  '   itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/youtu.be\/wYtCCNhh6Iw?list=PL30Pair5Z6pBsuqv7TQa-z8BghN23_KbR ' ><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe width=\"1333\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wYtCCNhh6Iw?feature=oembed&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&mute=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_third  column-top-margin\" style='border-radius:0px; '><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex_column av_one_third  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_one_third  el_before_av_one_full  column-top-margin\" style='border-radius:0px; '><section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em><strong>\u201cIn this passionately social world, loneliness dogged the spirit.
