Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

University Hall, Bangor, during the session 1917-18. My object in giving them was to enlist the sympathies of students on behalf of the literature that is in process of formation at the present day. As the exacting demands of an academic course not infrequently leave little time for general reading, more quotation was necessary than in dealing with the well-worn classics. The first of these lectures has been published separately by Messrs. Jarvis Foster, and I wish here to repeat my cordial thanks to those who enabled me to quote from the works of the authors concerned. I am deeply indebted to Lord Dunsany for permission to quote from the poems of Corporal Francis Ledwidge, published by Messrs. Herbert Jenkins ;to Professor W. R. Sorley who has allowed me to make extracts from Marlborough and Other Poems by his son, Captain C. H. Sorley; to Captain Robert Graves for poems from Over the Brazier; to Mrs. E. M. Freston for poems by her son, Lieut. H. R. Freston ;to Lieut. Robert Nichols for his poem The Last Morning; to Messrs. Sidgwick and Jackson for leave to include lines from Rupert Brooke s Requiem; to Mr. Erskine Macdonald for his great kindness in so readily permitting me to quote from Sergeant Leslie Coulson s Outpost, Sergeant J. W. Streets The Undying Splendour Lieut. E. F. Wilkinson s Sunrise Dreams and the remarkable collection of Soldier Poets; to Messrs. Duckworth for excerpts from Poems and Parodies by Lieut. T. M. Kettle; to Mr. B. H. Blackwell for quotations from The Quest of Truth by Lieut. H. R. Freston; to Mr. John Murray for permission to quote from Lieut. Joseph Lee s Workaday Warriors; to Mr. Elkin Mathews for several poems from Private Alexander Robertson s Comrades; toM

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents and examines the poetry of WW1 soldier-poets such as Rupert Brooke and Siegfried Sassoon. The author of this book gives an overview of their motivations and experiences, focusing on how they differ from previous war poets in history, such as Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The author also draws parallels between the works of these soldier-poets and the broader historical and literary context in which they were written, such as the Elizabethan era and Romanticism. Ultimately, this book offers new insights into how these poets' experiences during the war, their exposure to its horrors and their loss, shaped their literary output. While this book is written in an accessible style that will appeal to a wide audience, its nuanced observations will be of particular interest to academics and scholars. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781331629078_0
