Rupert Brooke, Charles Sorley, Isaac Rosenberg, and Wilfred Owen

Rupert Brooke, Charles Sorley, Isaac Rosenberg, and Wilfred Owen

Lorna Hardwick; Stephen Harrison; Elizabeth Vandiver

Oxford University Press
2024
sidottu
Rupert Brooke, Wilfred Owen, Isaac Rosenberg, and Charles Sorley all died in the First Word War. They came from diverse social, educational, and cultural backgrounds, but for all of the writers, engagement with Greek and Roman antiquity was decisive in shaping their war poetry. The world views and cultural hinterlands of Brooke and Sorley were framed by the Greek and Latin texts they had studied at school, whereas for Owen, who struggled with Latin, classical texts were a part of his aspirational literary imagination. Rosenberg's education was limited but he encountered some Greek and Roman literature through translations, and through mediations in English literature. The various ways in which the poets engaged with classical literature are analysed in the commentaries, which are designed to be accessible to classicists and to users from other subject areas. The extensive range of connections made by the poets and by subsequent readers is explained in the Introduction to the volume. The commentaries illuminate relationships between the poems and attitudes to the war at the time, in the immediate post-war years, and subsequently. They also probe how individual poems reveal various facets of the poetry of unease, the poetry of survival, and the poetics of war and ecology. References to the accompanying online Oxford Classical Receptions Commentaries will enable readers to follow up their special interests. This volume differs from the shorter volume Greek and Roman Antiquity in First World War Poetry: Making Connections in that it covers the whole output of the four poets, and not just their war poems.

Charles Stephen Gurr

University of Georgia Press

pokkari
Steadman Vincent Sanford was a distinguished educator instrumental in shaping higher education in Georgia and in the South during the first half of the twentieth century. Sanford joined the University of Georgia in 1903, founding the Henry W. Grady School of Journalism and serving as its dean. He rose through the administration, serving as president from 1932 to 1935 and then as chancellor of the University System of Georgia until his death in 1945. Sanford was also a major contributor to the athletic program at the university—its football stadium still bears his name. While focusing on Sanford’s accomplishments as a teacher, leader, and administrator, Charles Stephen Gurr draws the portrait of a man for whom the ties of family, friendship, and community were immensely important and whose personal and professional legacy lives on in the lives he influenced and the institutions he led.
