Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Clere Trevor James Herbert Parsons (1908-1931) rejected Georgian poetry (which included the work of Rupert Brooke) calling it 'the swan-song of Victorian poetry.' Had he lived beyond his twenty-three years (a diabetic he died from pneumonia and a lack of insulin) it is thought that Parsons would have become as eminent as the Macspaunday four (Macniece, Spender, Auden and Day-Lewis). In so many ways he was the Stuart Sutcliffe figure of the movement. He was an editor of a number of student magazines including the influential Oxford Poetry and was an early proponent of American Modernism. Some wear, otherwise very good.
