A propos de cet article

First edition. 14 x 22.5cm. 115 pages. Original hardcover with dustjacket in protective Mylar. Excellent condition with only minor signs of external wear and mild foxing. Pencil marks to rear dustjacket as seen. Sir Stephen Harold Spender CBE (28 February 1909 16 July 1995) was an English poet, novelist and essayist who concentrated on themes of social injustice and the class struggle in his work. He was appointed the seventeenth Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the United States Library of Congress in 1965. Trial of a Judge, first published in 1938, is an anti-fascist drama in verse. From original dustjacket notes to 'Trial of a Judge': The theme is a struggle of conscience, a tragedy of human weakness which is of timeless significance; and the liberal-minded judge, striving to maintain his conception of justice between contending political factions, becomes at the end a figure of tragic greatness. Sprache: english.
