No part of this publication may be copied or reproduced for publication or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, or otherwise stored in a retrieval system, without the prior permission of the copyright owner. The rights of Jeff Cooper to be identified as the author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. PREFACE This is the third edition, with additions and amendments (and a renumbering), of the edition originally published in 2004 by White Sheep Press. The intention of this checklist is to list all of the writings published by Abercrombie (although there are almost certainly a large number of book reviews and articles for the Nation that have not been traced). However, without this essential building block, which puts his works into context, meaningful analysis and criticism of his work is difficult. This is a working document, and if you would like to help make it a definitive list, please send any amendments and additions to me at [email protected]. They will be incorporated in the list and acknowledged. The format of the checklist is chronological, in order of first publication in periodical and book form. It should be borne in mind that there is a bibliographical hierarchy: contributions to periodicals, then contributions to books, and finally principal books.

Preface This is the third edition, with some additions and amendments (and a complete re-numbering), of the edition originally published in 2004 under Richard Emeny’s name, with myself as the editor. The interest in Edward Thomas’s poetry and prose writings has grown considerably over the past few years, and this is an opportune moment to make the whole checklist freely available and accessible. The intention of the list is to provide those with an interest in Thomas with the tools to understand his enormous contribution to criticism as well as poetry. This is very much a work in progress. I can’t say that I have produced a complete or wholly accurate list, and any amendments or additions would be gratefully received by sending them to me at [email protected].

  • First World War Centenary Poetry Collection
    First World War Centenary Poetry Collection 28th July 2014 All items in this collection are in the U.S. Public Domain owing to date of publication. If you are not in the U.S.A., please check your own country's copyright laws. Whether an item is still in copyright will depend on the author's date of death. 01 Preface to Poems by Wilfred Owen (1893 - 1918) This Preface was found, in an unfinished condition, among Wilfred Owen's papers after his death. The (slightly amended) words from the preface “My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity” are inscribed on the memorial in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey. 02 For the Fallen by Laurence Binyon (1869 - 1943) Published when the Battle of the Marne was raw in people's memories, For the Fallen was written in honour of the war dead. The fourth verse including the words “We will remember them” has become the Ode of Remembrance to people of many nations and is used in services of remembrance all over the world. 03 [RUSSIAN] Мама и убитый немцами вечер (Mama i ubity nemcami vecher) by Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893 - 1930) В стихах «Война объявлена!» и «Мама и убитый немцами вечер» В.В. Маяковский описывает боль жертв кровавой войны и свое отвращение к этой войне. In this poem “Mama and the Evening Killed by the Germans” Mayakovsky describes the victims' pain of bloody war and his disgust for this war. 04 To Germany by Charles Hamilton Sorley (1895 - 1915) Sorley is regarded by some, including John Masefield, as the greatest loss of all the poets killed during the war.

  • A Note on the Origins of 1914-18 'War Poetry'
    A note on the origins of 1914-18 ‘war poetry’ Dominic Hibberd Biography Dominic Hibberd, was a biographer, editor and critic who taught at universities in Britain, the USA, and China. He wrote biographies of two poets, Harold Monro and Wilfred Owen, as well as the critical study Owen the Poet (1986). He edited Poetry of the First World War in the Casebook series (1981), and with John Onions, compiled and edited The Winter of the World: Poems of the First World War (2007). Abstract The sort of work that has often been thought of as typical British First World War poetry – realistic, often angry poems about the actualities of the front line, written from the point of view of the ordinary soldier and aimed at the civilian conscience – was in fact not typical at all. And it was not begun by soldiers in the aftermath of front-line horrors, as is often supposed, but by two civilian poets very early in the war. Harold Monro and Wilfrid Gibson deserve to be recognised as the first of what modern readers would call the ‘war poets’. Résumé Les œuvres qui sont souvent considérées comme tout à fait caractéristiques de la poésie britannique de la première guerre mondiale, — réalistes, souvent des poèmes d’un style cru, traduisant la réalité du front, telle qu’elle est vécue par le soldat de base, pour en faire prendre conscience aux civils, ne sont en réalité en rien conformes à ce modèle. Les premières œuvres relevant de ce genre n’ont pas été le fait de militaires revenant de l’horreur du front, comme on le croit souvent, mais de deux poètes civils qui les ont écrites au tout début de la guerre.

Some time ago 'the Athenaeum Literary Department' started a series of booklets under the general title of The Westminster Classics'. They are sixpence each, and, if one may say so, rather atavistic in appearance. In fact, they are not unlike our own 'Pantheon' series, which — pace the glorious shades of Vondel, Hooft, Breero, Huygens and Staring — I cordi- ally detested when I was a youth, and which, having come to man's estate long ago, I still detest, for their unattractive get-up, for the prehistoric schoolroom atmosphere they suggest or exhale, and for their greyish or bluish paper, against which the small and worn type looks blurred. Unwilling as I am to admit any extenuating circumstances in the case of the chief benefiters by the Pantheon atrocities, — in view of the present inhuman dearth both of noble natures and of decent paper, I cannot find it in my heart to blame the management of the Athenaeum for their attempt to provide the lean of purse with something good to read on the principle of enclosing fair Portia's likeness in a casket of unseemly lead.

There was at the first contact both bloom and charm; and most of all there was life. To use the word his friends describe him by, he was "vivid". This vitality, though manifold in expression, is felt primarily in his sensations -- surprise mingled with delight -- "One after one, like tasting a sweet food." This is life's "first fine rapture". It makes him patient to name over those myriad things (each of which seems like a fresh discovery) curious but potent, and above all common, that he "loved", -- he the "Great Lover". Lover of what, then? Why, of "White plates and cups clean-gleaming, Ringed with blue lines," -- and the like, through thirty lines of exquisite words; and he is captivated by the multiple brevity of these vignettes of sense, keen, momentary, ecstatic with the morning dip of youth in the wonderful stream.
