Boston College collection of Siegfried Sassoon MS.1986.051 - Page 4 - Biographical note Siegfried Loraine Sassoon was born to Alfred Sassoon and Theresa Thornycroft on September 8, 1886. He attended Clare College in Cambridge, first studying law and then history, but left without a degree. He spent his years prior to World War I hunting and writing poetry. From 1906 to 1913, Sassoon produced eleven volumes of poetry, all of which were privately published. In May 1915, Sassoon was commissioned into the Royal Welch Fusiliers and sent to France. During the war, Sassoon lost his brother and a close friend, and was also wounded himself. His successful efforts to save wounded members of his platoon earned him the Military Cross. Influenced by British pacifists such as John Middleton Murray and Bertrand Russell, Sassoon began to distrust Britain's handling of the war. He wrote "A Soldier's Declaration" against the war in July 1917. After the war, Sassoon became the literary editor of The Socialist Daily Herald and undertook a speaking tour of the United States. In 1928, Sassoon published The Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man, the first of six autobiographical works. He married Hester Gatty in 1938 but the couple divorced in 1945. Sassoon converted to Roman Catholicism in 1957 and lived at home in Heytesbury House in Wiltshire, England until his death at the age of eighty in 1967. Sources: McDowell, Margaret B.

Scope and Contents This collection documents the work of British Catholic poet Siegfried Sassoon through his letters and poems. His poem, "An Unwritten 'Essay on Satire'," is a three-page manuscript that he sent to Robert Graves. His printed poem "Rogation" was probably an enclosure in his correspondence with poet Katherine Kendall, which is included in this collection. The letters to Kendall discuss her work, as well as religious and modern poetry. Also included is Kendall's The Horizon and Other Poems (1963). Finally, there is one piece of correspondence from Sassoon to Addyes Scott in response to a fan letter.

  • There Is No “Unless” for Poets’:* Robert Graves and Postmodern Thought Nancy Rosenfeld
    ‘There is no “unless” for poets’:* Robert Graves and Postmodern Thought Nancy Rosenfeld Robert Graves’s place in twentieth century literature and thought is much more central than the relatively marginal status accorded him in standard critical accounts. Graves is best known as the author of historical novels. His I, Claudius, produced as a BBC television series in the 1970s, and its sequel Claudius the God and his Wife Messalina made his name a household word. Yet Graves was a twentieth century Renaissance man: his body of work includes poetry – Graves viewed himself as a poet first and foremost – more than a dozen historical novels, autobiography, studies of mythology and ethnography, writing guides, translation, social commentary, literary criticism. Graves’s autobiography Good-bye to All That is one of the most influential memoirs to come out of the First World War. His Greek Myths remains a basic text in comparative literature studies. Generations of aspiring poets have sought guidance in The White Goddess: A Historical Grammar of Poetic Myth. Poetry, Graves argued in Lecture One of the Oxford Chair of Poetry series delivered in 1964, ‘is a way of life, a vocation or a profession’, even though it is not ‘operationally organized’ as are the professions of medicine, law, architecture, pedagogy.1 This and more: the imperative of questioning ‘every word and sound and implication in a poem either read or written’ stands in direct opposition to ‘present trends in politics, economics and ethics which are wholly inimical to the appearance of new poets, or the honourable survival of those who may have already appeared.’ The true poets are always/already tempered by poetic principle, which is ‘a simple, obstinate belief in miracle: an asseveration of * Robert Graves, Poetic Craft and Principle (London: Cassell, 1967), p.

    Sassoon, Siegfried (1886-1967) by Tina Gianoulis Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2005, glbtq, inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Siegfried Sassoon in 1916. The grueling, seemingly endless years of World War I brought a quick education in devastation and futility to hundreds of thousands of young British men, including those who grew up in privilege. One of these was the gay "war poet," Siegfried Sassoon. Brought up in the leisured life of a country gentleman, Sassoon enlisted in the military just as the war was beginning. His poetry reflects the evolution of his attitudes towards war, beginning with a vision of combat as an exploit reflecting glory and nobility, and ending with muddy, bloody realism and bitter recrimination towards those who profited from the destruction of young soldiers. Sassoon came of age during a sort of golden period of Western homosexual intelligentsia, and his friends and lovers were some of the best-known writers, artists, and thinkers of the period. Born on September 8, 1886 in Weirleigh, England, in the county of Kent, Siegfried Louvain (some give his middle name as Loraine, or Lorraine) Sassoon was the son of a Sephardic Jewish father and a Catholic mother. His parents divorced when young Siegfried was five, and his father died of tuberculosis within a few years. While still a teenager, Sassoon experienced his first crush on another boy, a fellow student at his grammar school. He studied both law and history at Clare College, Cambridge, but did not receive a degree. He did, however, meet other gay students at Cambridge, and would later count among his friends such writers associated with Cambridge as his older contemporary E.

    Robert Graves1 Deya Robert Graves3, Deya William Graves5 Oundle School November 15, 1957 Dearest Wm : Good luck in your interview. If you are wholly at your ease - and why not? - all will go well. But try to raise some sort of enthusiasm for your proposed career: dont-care-ism doesn't go down well. There's never been so wet a November since - since last time - but we have had about three sunny days, and I even bathed three days ago at Can Floque. The best news is getting 3 bottles of butagaz smuggled from France, which means no more dirty carbon in the kitchen until the supply gives out. We hope to spend a few days in Austria with Jenny on the way to Jugland, but she is all snarled up with the Bevan libel case (on November 21st) & doesn't answer letters. She was very nice to Lucia and Juan on the way through. I expect my Goodbye To All That will create a stir again as it did in 1929 when it first came out - Canellun was built on the spoils. The Sunday Express reviewer cabled could he fly out & interview me. I cabled "yes: but you'll have to come out to Deya", & that's the last I've heard. The pups are eating raw meat now & are very large & fat & active; Mother spends most of her time trying to make them make little puddles on the Baleares. Castor is trimming the trees in the garden; the oranges nearly ripe. The stupid lilac thinks it is spring & is flowering like the pear tree.

Af- ter this event, poetic trends seem to move away from odes Mto courageous sacrifice and protection of the homeland, toward bitter or grief-stricken verses on the horror and pointless suffering of the conflict. This is especially true of poetry written by soldier poets, many of whom were young, English men with a strong grounding in Classical literature and languages from their training in the British public schooling system.

  • Works by Robert Graves in Special Collections, University of Otago Library 2012
    Robert Graves Poeta 1895-1985 Works by Robert Graves in Special Collections, University of Otago Library 2012 1 There is no now for us but always, Nor any I but we – Who have loved only and love only From the hilltops to the sea In our long turbulence of nights and days: A calendar from which no lover strays In proud perversity. Envoi. (Collected Poems, 1975) On the headstone that marks his grave at Deyá, Marjorca, there is the simple: ‘Robert Graves Poeta 1895-1985’. And it was this aspect that attracted Charles Brasch, editor, patron and poet, to the works of Graves, calling him ‘among the finest English poets of our time, one of the few who is likely to be remembered as a poet.’ Indeed, not only did Brasch collect his own first editions volumes written by Graves, but he encouraged the University of Otago Library to buy more. Thanks to Brasch, Special Collections at the University of Otago now has an extensive collection of works (poetry, novels, essays, children’s books) by him. Born at Wimbledon in 1895, Graves had an Irish father, a German mother, an English upbringing, and a classical education. Enlisting in the Royal Welch Fusiliers, Graves faced the horrors of World War I. He was wounded by shrapnel, left for dead and later able to read his own obituary in The London Times. In 1929, he penned Goodbye To All That, his war-time autobiography which gave him success and fame. And aside from his regular output of poetry books, he wrote historical novels such as I Claudius (1934) and Claudius the God (1934), The White Goddess (1948), the heady study on matriarchal worship and poetry that in the sixties became a source book for readers of the Whole Earth Catalog, and the very successful The Greek Myths (1955).

  • Robert Graves - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Robert Graves - poems - Publication Date: 2004 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Robert Graves(1895 - 1985) Robert Graves was born in 1895 in Wimbledon, a suburb of London. Graves was known as a poet, lecturer and novelist. He was also known as a classicist and a mythographer. Perhaps his first known and revered poems were the poems Groves wrote behind the lines in World War One. He later became known as one of the most superb English language 'Love' poets. He then became recognised as one of the finest love poets writing in the English language. Members of the poetry, novel writing, historian, and classical scholarly community often feel indebted to the man and his works. Robert Graves was born into an interesting time in history. He actually saw Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee procession at the age of two or three. His family was quite patriotic, educated, strict and upper middle saw his father as an authoritarian. He was not liked by his peers in school, nor did he care much for them. He attended British public school. He feared most of his Masters at the school. When he did seek out company, it was of the same sex and his relationships were clearly same sex in orientation. Although he had a scholarship secured in the classics at Oxford, he escaped his childhood and Father through leaving for the Great War. Graves married twice, once to Nancy Nicholson, and they had four children, and his second marriage to Beryl Pritchard brought forth four more children.

Newly developed technologies and weapons created an environment which no one had seen before, and as a result, an entire generation of soldiers and their families had to learn to cope with new conditions of shell shock. For many of those affected, poetry offered an outlet to express their thoughts, feelings and experiences. For Great Britain, the work of Rupert Brooke, Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen and Robert Graves have been highly recognized, both at the time and in the present. Newspaper articles and reviews published by prominent companies of the time make it clear that each of these poets, who expressed strong opinions and feelings toward the war, deeply influenced public opinion.

  • An Emperor in Translation: Suetonius, Claudius, and Robert Graves
    An Emperor in Translation: Suetonius, Claudius, and Robert Graves About twenty years after Robert Graves wrote the novels I, Claudius and Claudius the God, based on the life of the emperor Claudius, he published a translation of Suetonius’ De Vita Caesarum under the title The Twelve Caesars. While Graves’ translation is generally faithful, it is colored by his personal ideas about Claudius, which he expresses not only through his two novels, but also in interviews, letters, and other literary works. I argue that in The Twelve Caesars, Graves subtly inserts a new and improved, sympathetic Claudius into Suetonius’ more negative depiction. To show this, I will compare episodes in Suetonius to parallel episodes in the novels, demonstrating Graves’ manipulation of events, themes, and—above all—language. After giving a brief overview of our evidence for Graves’ views on Claudius, I will turn to the two letters of Augustus concerning Claudius, which are quoted by Suetonius and reworked in I, Claudius. These are not merely episodes in Suetonius that Graves has adapted, but recognizably the very same letters. In fact, in the second letter, Graves’ translation in The Twelve Caesars is less precise than his rendering of it in the novel. Next, I focus on the episode in which Claudius is declared emperor, pointing out that in The Twelve Caesars, Graves leaves out the damning phrase prae metu “because of fear” (Suet.Div.Claud.10.2) to explain Claudius’ actions. Finally, I turn to chapters 14 and 15 in Suetionus, in which Claudius’ law court activity occurs. I argue that Graves’ translation renders Claudius much more capable than the Latin implies and is highly influenced by the court scenes in Claudius the God.

I have two letters about him, written to me by my aunt Peg some 40 years ago, when I was young and she was already old.1 I have no letters written by Arthur himself, nor postcards. Did he write any? The answer may be no, because he was only in France and Flanders a short time, though that would not explain any failure to write home from Norfolk, where he spent some months. Certainly, no letters or postcards have survived; but Paul Fussell’s book The Great War and Modern Memory makes it clear that I am probably not missing much. All letters and postcards written by the troops were censored; and in Old Soldiers Never Die Frank Richards tells how the men were ‘not allowed to say what part of the Front [they] were on, or casualties, or the conditions [they] were living in, or the names of the villages or towns [they] were staying in.’ In any event the Tommies communicated in clichés, partly because - true to the national stereotype - they were phlegmatic; and partly because there was a widely shared view that it didn’t do any good, and certainly didn’t cheer the family up, to complain about one’s lot.
