Poetry of the First World War
ISBN: 9780198703204 Год издания: 2014 Издательство: Oxford University Press Язык: Английский Аннотация
'What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?'
The First World War produced an extraordinary flowering of poetic talent, from poets whose words commemorate the conflict as enduringly as monuments in stone. Their poems have come to express the feelings of a nation about the horrors and aftermath of war. This new anthology provides a definitive record of the achievements of the Great War poets. As well as offering generous selections from the celebrated soldier-poets, including Wilfred Owen, Siegfried Sassoon, Rupert Brooke, and Ivor Gurney, it also incorporates less well-known writing by civilian and women poets. Music hall and trench songs provide a further lyrical perspective on the War.
The work of each poet is prefaced with a biographical account that sets the poems in their historical context. In addition, Tim Kendall's introduction charts the history of the war poets' reception and challenges prevailing myths about their progress from idealism to bitterness. -

The Ancient Mariner
ISBN: 1904634141, 9781904634140 Год издания: 1997 Издательство: Enitharmon Язык: Английский Аннотация
The artist and poet David Jones (1895-1974) considered The Rime of the Ancient Mariner to be ‘one of the great achievements of English poetry, and not only great but unique’. In 1929 Jones made ten copper engravings for a limited edition of Coleridge’s poem, which was immediately acclaimed as the best illustrated version of the poem and ‘among the most perfect partnerships between author and illustrator in modern times’. This new edition – the first in an accessible and affordable format – is prefaced by Jones’s engrossing and beautifully written Introduction. Also included is an Afterword by Thomas Dilworth, with twenty-eight illustrations, discussing the biographical context of the engravings, interpreting them, and illuminating an aspect of the form of the poem which may have influenced the engravings. Individually, the engravings are symbolically powerful and aesthetically compelling. Cumulatively, they achieve an overall unifying structure unparalleled in the history of art.
