  • 'I Should Want Nothing More': Edward Thomas and Simplicity
    Journal of the British Academy, 7, 89–121. DOI https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/007.089 Posted 4 November 2019. © The British Academy 2019 ‘I should want nothing more’: Edward Thomas and simplicity Chatterton Lecture on Poetry read 1 November 2018 GUY CUTHBERTSON Abstract: In the years before the First World War, the ‘Simple Life’ became somewhat fashionable, and Edward Thomas (1878–1917) was one of those Edwardians who were attracted to simplicity, both as a way of life and as a way of writing. As a book reviewer and biographer, he greatly admired simplicity in literature (as seen in, among others, William Cobbett, W. H. Davies, J. M. Synge and Robert Frost). His prose moved towards plainness, and his poetry is beautifully simple. This simplicity has been problematic, however. His poetry is unsuited to the decoding and exegesis (which might be suited to Modernism) that universities seek to conduct. Academics studying his poetry have allowed themselves to believe that they have found complexity, hidden beneath superficial simplicity, whereas in fact Thomas is a poet of genuine bareness, clear-as-glass honesty, magical brevity and childlike simplicity. His simplicity has been popular, and seems to suit some 21st-century fashions. Keywords: the Simple Life, simplicity, complexity, Edwardians, universities, First World War, Modernism, Robert Frost, William Cobbett, J. M. Synge In the decade or so before the First World War, simplicity became somewhat fashionable—indeed it was a religion for some. This craze is captured rather wonderfully in the Edwardian hit musical The Arcadians (1909), where the central character is given the name ‘Simplicitas’, idyllic Arcady is recreated in London at a successful new health food restaurant and men are ‘keen as a knife / On the simple life’.1 Although some might want it otherwise, Edward Thomas was part of this atmos- phere.

    Stow-on-the-Wold AllTaker images Lathwood; © Emma The Picture Stow-on- the-Wold At nearly 800 feet, Stow is the highest of the Gloucestershire Cotswolds towns and famous as a centre for antiques. The town radiates from the impressive market square, surrounded by Cotswold stone buildings. There is a good selection of specialist shops, cosy cafés and inns to enjoy. Stow has a fascinating history, with the market square once host to some of the Cotswolds’ largest sheep fairs, with up to 20,000 sheep herded into the square for sale. The medieval Market Cross and the old stocks give a sense of Stow’s early history. Stow had a significant role in the English Civil War – it was at nearby Donnington that the last battle was fought in 1646. St Edward’s Church was used as a prison for the defeated Royalist troops and is well worth a visit. Stow is also home to England’s oldest inn, The Porch House, as well as a great choice of other places to eat. www.cotswolds.com/Stow Cotswold Electric Bike Tours Kingham OX7 6YQ Tel 01608 659378 www.cotswoldelectricbiketours.co.uk E Our state-of-the-art electric bikes will help power you through the beautiful Cotswold countryside and villages.

Our villages are mostly built from traditional honey-coloured Cotswold stone; the area is affluent, with good village pubs and many nearby cafes and restaurants, and there are excellent primary and secondary schools in both state and independent sectors. But it’s also an area with significant challenges: prosperity sometimes deafens our communities to the call of Jesus Christ, and pockets of rural deprivation, limited public transport in the villages, and issues with employment and affordability of housing stocks for younger residents can make daily living tough for some. As a church, we also recognise the specific challenges of developing our outreach in our villages, as well as enhancing the spiritual and prayer life of our regular congregations. It’s a very beautiful place to live, but presents no lack of opportunities as we minister to our communities and keep faithful to our Gospel imperative to go and make disciples of all nations.

  • Secret Cottage Drives Through Adlestrop on a Tour of the Cotswolds
    Secret Cottage drives through Adlestrop on a tour of the Cotswolds If you’re looking for a picture-perfect Cotswold Tourism attraction, Adlestrop is another small village in the heart of the Cotswolds that we, and our guests, love! You’ll find the village just off the road from Chipping Norton to Stow on the Wold. The village has a population of just 80 residents and lies on the edge of Britain’s largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The location is peaceful and renowned for its countryside. Adlestrop provides a welcome break for walkers who enjoy the breathtaking views and nature trails this area has to offer. The area is popular with walkers because two footpaths pass through. It’s so peaceful in fact, that one of Britain’s favourite poems “Adlestrop” was written by Edward Thomas in 1914. He was on a rather dull train journey when the train made an unscheduled stop in Adlestrop. Even though he never stepped off the train, the serenity and tranquillity touched him so much he put pen to paper! Although the railway station is no longer open, the local bus shelter contains a bench that was on the platform and now has a plaque on it quoting the poem. There much be something magical about this place because it’s believed that the house and grounds of Adlestrop Park inspired Jane Austen – becoming the setting for Mansfield Park. Adlestrop has all you need for a closely knit community – post office and store, village hall, church, cricket pitch and even a fishing lake! Every year the village hosts an Open Day where you can visit private gardens and enjoy lunch and tea at the village hall.

  • Three Soldier-Poets: Rupert Brooke, Edward Thomas and Isaac Rosenberg
    SEFAD, 2017 (37): 361-370 e-ISSN: 2458-908X THREE SOLDIER-POETS: RUPERT BROOKE, EDWARD THOMAS AND ISAAC ROSENBERG Arş. Gör. Şafak ALTUNSOY Selçuk Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi İngiliz Dili ve Edebiyatı Bölümü [email protected] ORCID ID: http://orcid.org/0000-0002-5573-1121 Abstract This study tries to evaluate Rupert Brooke’s “The Soldier,” Edward Thomas’ “Adlestrop” and Isaac Rosenberg’s “Break of Day in the Trenches” by demonstrating the three poets’ ideological stances during WWI. The difficulties of the trench life are apparent in their poems but what makes their poems different from each other is the ideology lying behind the poems. Brooke, Thomas, and Rosenberg represent three different perspectives on the popular patriotism and Englishness during the war period. While Brooke’s poems function as a deliberate representation of the dominant government policies, the poems of Thomas and Rosenberg create an opponent voice by delineating the harsh conditions of the war period and hollowness of the policies about war. Keywords: Rupert Brooke, Edward Thomas, Isaac Rosenberg, war poetry, soldier-poet. ÜÇ ASKER ŞAİR: RUPERT BROOKE, EDWARD THOMAS VE ISAAC ROSENBERG Öz Bu çalışma Rupert Brook’un “Asker,” Edward Thomas’ın “Adlestrop” ve Isaac Rosenberg’in “Siperlerde Gün Ağarması” şiirlerini Birinci Dünya savaşında şairlerin ideolojik duruşunu göstermek maksadıyla incelemektedir. Siper yaşamının zorlukları şiirlerde açıkça görülmektedir ancak şiirleri birbirinden farklı kılan şey şiirlerin arkasında yatan ideolojidir. Brooke, Thomas ve Rosenberg savaş döneminde rağbet gören vatanseverlik ve İngilizlik üzerine üç farklı bakış açısını temsil eder. Brooke şiiri hâkim devlet politikalarının açık bir temsili olarak görünürken, Thomas ve Rosenberg şiirleri savaş politikalarının saçmalığını ve dönemin zorluklarını vurgulayarak karşıt bir ses oluşturur.

  • Not Adlestrop – by Dannie Abse –
    Welsh writing in English Teachers’ Notes Not Adlestrop – by Dannie Abse – Background information The famous poem ‘Adlestrop’, published in 1917, describes an uneventful journey that Edward Thomas, the Anglo-Welsh poet, took on 24 June 1914 on the Oxford to Worcester express; the train made an unscheduled stop at Adlestrop railway station. He did not alight from the train, but describes a moment of peace in which he heard ‘all the birds of Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire’. The station closed in 1966. However, the village bus shelter contains the station sign and a bench that was originally on the platform. A plaque on the bench quotes Thomas’ poem. Dannie Abse deliberately echoes this poem in ‘Not Adlestrop’. Edward Thomas reads ‘Adlestrop’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JovV9Pnx55k (This wrongly refers to Edward Thomas as an English poet at one point.) Richard Burton reads ‘Adlestrop’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0J1Ze5QXG8 Dannie Abse reads ‘Not Adlestrop’: https://poetryarchive.7dgtl.com/releases/3297189 (A small payment may be required for the whole poem.) Please note that for assessment purposes it is not valid to compare ‘Adlestrop’ and ‘Not Adlestrop’. Activities A Once a poem is seen on a page, it often seems inevitable that just those words are used. However if learners, even to a small extent, co-create the poem, the choices seem far less inevitable and the poet’s choices loom larger. The key here is for learners to justify their choices in logical ways, which should include reference to alliteration, repetition and patterning. B Apart from the similarities and differences highlighted, learners can be encouraged to explore other comparisons, for example whether the poet is inside or outside the train; no human interaction/human interaction.
