A selection of Housman's writings, both scholarly and general, which decisively confirms his reputation as a prose stylist.

Alfred Edward Housman (1859-1936) was an English classical scholar and poet, best known for his cycle of poems A Shropshire Lad. Lyrical and almost epigrammatic in form, the poems' wistful evocation of doomed youth in the English countryside, in spare language and distinctive imagery, appealed strongly to late Victorian and Edwardian taste.

Der englische Lyriker Alfred Edward Housman (1859-1936) ist im deutschen Sprachraum fast unbekannt.

Excerpt from Last Poems I publish these poems, few though they are, because it is not likely that I shall ever be impelled to write much more. I can no longer expect to be revisited by the continuous excitement under which in the early months of 1895 I wrote the greater part of my other book, nor indeed could I well sustain it if it came, and it is best that what I have written should be printed while I am here to see it through the press and...
