  • Poet's Corner in Westminster Abbey

    Poet's Corner in Westminster Abbey

    Poet’s Corner in Westminster Abbey Alton Barbour Abstract: Beginning with a brief account of the history of Westminster Abbey and its physical structure, this paper concentrates on the British writers honored in the South Transept or Poet’s Corner section. It identifies those recognized who are no longer thought to be outstanding, those now understood to be outstanding who are not recognized, and provides an alphabetical listing of the honored members of dead poet’s society, Britain’s honored writers, along with the works for which they are best known. Key terms: Poet’s Corner, Westminster Abbey, South Transept. CHRISTIANITY RETURNS AND CHURCHES ARE BUILT A walk through Westminster Abbey is a walk through time and through English history from the time of the Norman conquest. Most of that journey is concerned with the crowned heads of England, but not all. One section of the Abbey has been dedicated to the major figures in British literature. This paper is concerned mainly with the major poets, novelists and dramatists of Britain, but that concentration still requires a little historical background. For over nine centuries, English monarchs have been both crowned and buried in Westminster Abbey. The Angles, Saxons and Jutes who conquered and occupied England in the mid 5th century were pagans. But, as the story goes, Pope Gregory saw two fair-haired boys in the Roman market who were being sold as slaves and asked who they were. He was told that they were Angles. He replied that they looked more like angels (angeli more than angli) and determined that these pagan people should be converted to Christianity.

  • Introduction

    Introduction

    Notes Quotations from Love’s Martyr and the Diverse Poetical Essays are from the first edition of 1601. (I have modernized these titles in the text.) Otherwise, Shakespeare is quoted from The Riverside Shakespeare, ed. G. Blakemore Evans, 2nd edn (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1997). Jonson, unless otherwise noted, is quoted from Ben Jonson, ed. C. H. Herford and Percy and Evelyn Simpson, 11 vols (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1925–52), and Edmund Spenser from The Works of Edmund Spenser: A Variorum Edition, ed. Edwin Greenlaw, Charles Osgood and Fredrick Padelford, 10 vols (Baltimore: The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1932–57). Introduction 1. Colin Burrow, ‘Life and Work in Shakespeare’s Poems’, Shakespeare’s Poems, ed. Stephen Orgel and Sean Keilen (London: Taylor & Francis, 1999), 3. 2. J. C. Maxwell (ed.), The Cambridge Shakespeare: The Sonnets (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1969), xxxiii. 3. See, for instance, Catherine Belsey’s essays ‘Love as Trompe-l’oeil: Taxonomies of Desire in Venus and Adonis’, in Shakespeare in Theory and Practice (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2008), 34–53, and ‘The Rape of Lucrece’, in The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare’s Poetry, ed. Patrick Cheney (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2007), 90–107. 4. William Empson, Essays on Shakespeare (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1986), 1. 5. I admire the efforts of recent editors to alert readers to the fact that all titles imposed on it are artificial, but there are several reasons why I reluctantly refer to it as ‘The Phoenix and Turtle’. Colin Burrow, in The Complete Sonnets and Poems (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2002), chooses to name it after its first line, the rather inelegant ‘Let the bird of lowdest lay’, which, out of context, to my ear sounds more silly than solemn.

How I wish Upper Heyford as a USAF base was still up and running...Ill always have the best memories of Upper Heyford..
