The Poetry of Richard Aldington by Norman T. Gates,Richard Aldington Pdf
Together with a critical discussion of Aldington's contribution to modern poetry as a central figure in Imagism, this book gives bibliographical details for all of the poet's first editions and collections, texts of a hundred and seventeen uncollected poems from periodicals and unpublished manuscripts, and eighty-seven early poems omitted from Aldington's Complete Poems. This is the first book-length study of Aldington's poetry since his death in 1962. Because Aldington moved in the center of literary life in England for several decades, it also is a source of information on many of his contemporaries including Yeats, Eliot, both Lawrences, H. D.," Joyce, Amy Lowell, and William Carlos Williams. On the bibliographical side, Mr. Gates discusses the thirty-two British and American individual volumes from which Aldington's final collection was made, as well as his contributions to the four Imagist Anthologies. After reviewing criticism of Aldington's poetry since 1910 Mr. Gates has dealt critically with each of the collected volumes by discussing individual poems and by appraising the thrust of the whole. Finally, Mr. Gates has attempted to assess Aldington's position as a poet and as a speaker for his times.
"Death of a Hero", published in 1929 was the author’s literary response to the war. He went on to publish several works of fiction. In 1942, having moved to the United States, he began to write biographies. This last work was very controversial, as it was highly critical of the man still regarded as a war hero.
Richard Aldington, born Edward Godfree Aldington, (1892-1962) was an English writer and poet. He was best known for his World War I poetry, the 1929 novel Death of a Hero, and the controversy arising from his 1955 Lawrence of Arabia: A Biographical Inquiry. His 1946 biography, Wellington, was awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for that year. His poetry was associated with the Imagist group, and his work forms almost one third of the Imagists inaugural anthology Des Imagistes (1914). He wrote with an acid pen as he was embittered by the war. His novels in fact contained thinly-veiled, disconcerting (at least to the subjects) portraits of some of his friends, particularly T. S. Eliot, D. H. Lawrence and Ezra Pound. His works include: Images of Desire (1919), Images of War (1919), War and Love (1919), Medallions in Clay (1921), Exile and Other poems (1923) and French Studies and Reviews (1926).
