Extractions: The English-born American writer Wystan Hugh Auden was one of the most important poets of the 20th century. Auden was born in York, the son of a physician. At first interested in science, he soon turned to poetry. In 1925 he entered Christ Church College, University of Oxford, where he became the center of a group of young leftist writers who generally expressed a socialist viewpoint, while continuing the artistic revolution of such earlier writers as T. S. Eliot , James Joyce, and Ezra Pound. This group included the poets Louis MacNiece and Stephen Spender and the novelist Christopher Isherwood. After graduating in 1928, he spent five years as a schoolmaster in Scotland and England.

Four Weddings and a Funeral's use of 'Funeral Blues' put Tell Me The Truth About Love, a slim slice of Auden in romantic mode, on the bestseller table next to The Little Book of Feline Feng Shui. In fact, Auden's poetic influence has been enormous: prolific, stylistically varied, politically engaged and accessible, he was the pre-eminent leftist voice of his generation while young; his later work moved towards religion and deepened in complexity.

Extractions: The British-born Wystan Hugh Auden (1907-73) read, owned, and distributed copies of Sigmund Freud 's writings when he was at Gresham's School, Norfolk, in his eighteenth year. His interest in psychoanalysis persisted after he went up to Oxford in 1925 but received its greatest fillip in Berlin in 1928, when he met John Layard, who had been a patient of the American psychologist Homer Lane. Through Layard, Auden became familiar with the theories not only of Lane but also of Georg Groddeck. In these thinkers, as in Freud and D. H. Lawrence , with whom he was already familiar, he found what Humphrey Carpenter has called "a positive doctrine of psychological liberation" (89), which left a lasting mark on his personal life as well as on his poetry and criticism. In his Oxford years Auden had also read Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels , whose political and economic theories he readily assimilated within the framework of Freudian psychology as he understood it. In 1935 he was able to argue that Marx and Freud were both "right": "As long as civilisation remains as it is, the number of patients the psychologist can cure are very few, and as soon as socialism attains power, it must learn to direct its own interior energy and will need the psychologist" ( English 341). Auden was never orthodox in either his Freudianism or his Marxism and moved on to consider other ideologies as the basis for his life and art. The most notableand most durableof these was Christianity, to which he was reconverted in 1940, shortly after he had settled in New York. In

Auden, W.H.; Kirsch, A.C., Ed.: Lectures On Shakespeare.
of the book Lectures on Shakespeare by auden, WH; Kirsch, AC, ed.,published by Princeton University Press. WH auden Edited by Arthur Kirsch.
http://pup.princeton.edu/titles/6910.html

Extractions: Sample Chapter: Sonnets "W. H. Auden, poet and critic, will conduct a course on Shakespeare at the New School for Social Research beginning Wednesday. Mr. Auden has announced that in his course . . . he proposes to read all Shakespeare's plays in chronological order." The New York Times reported this item on September 27, 1946, giving notice of a rare opportunity to hear one of the century's great poets comment on one of the greatest poets of all time. Published here for the first time, these lectures now make Auden's thoughts on Shakespeare available widely. Painstakingly reconstructed by Arthur Kirsch from the notes of students who attended, primarily Alan Ansen, who became Auden's secretary and friend, the lectures afford remarkable insights into Shakespeare's plays as well as the sonnets. A remarkable lecturer, Auden could inspire his listeners to great feats of recall and dictation. Consequently, the poet's unique voice, often down to the precise details of his phrasing, speaks clearly and eloquently throughout this volume. In these lectures, we hear Auden alluding to authors from Homer, Dante, and St. Augustine to Kierkegaard, Ibsen, and T. S. Eliot, drawing upon the full range of European literature and opera, and referring to the day's newspapers and magazines, movies and cartoons. The result is an extended instance of the "live conversation" that Auden believed criticism to be. Notably a conversation between Auden's capacious thought and the work of Shakespeare, these lectures are also a prelude to many ideas developed in Auden's later prosea prose in which, one critic has remarked, "all the artists of the past are alive and talking among themselves."

Extractions: Shopping Cart Reviews Table of Contents This book contains all the essays and reviews that W. H. Auden wrote during the years when he was living in England, and also includes the full original versions of his two illustrated travel books, Letters from Iceland (written in collaboration with Louis MacNeice) and Journey to a War (written in collaboration with Christopher Isherwood). Auden's early prose ranges from extravagant indiscreet travel diaries through sharply observed critiques of writers from John Skelton to Winston Churchill. It includes studies of Communism and Christianity; audaciously wide-ranging essays on literature, psychology, and politics; and writings about gossip, sex, prisons, and schools. The editor's notes include explanations of contemporary and private allusions. The long "Last Will and Testament" written in verse by Auden and MacNeice, which Evelyn Waugh described as a "gossip column," is annotated in full. The book will interest not only Auden's many admirers, but everyone concerned with twentieth-century literature and culture. About the series: In 1928, Stephen Spender hand-printed thirty copies of a small volume of poems by his friend W. H. Audenthe first published book by a man who was to become the dominant literary figure of his generation and one of the century's greatest poets. Sixty years later, Princeton University Press inaugurated an edition of the complete works of Auden, which is intended to serve as the definitive text for all the works Auden published or intended to publish in the form in which he expected to see them printed: his plays and other drama, libretti, essays and reviews, and poems.

Extractions: Pronunciation Key Auden, W. H. (Wystan Hugh Auden), , Anglo-American poet, b. York, England, educated at Oxford. A versatile, vigorous, and technically skilled poet, Auden ranks among the major literary figures of the 20th cent. Often written in everyday language, his poetry ranges in subject matter from politics to modern psychology to Christianity. During the 1930s he was the leader of a left-wing literary group that included Christopher Isherwood and Stephen Spender . With Isherwood he wrote three verse plays, The Dog beneath the Skin The Ascent of F6 (1936), and On the Frontier (1938), and Journey to a War (1939), a record of their experiences in China. He lived in Germany during the early days of Nazism, and was a stretcher-bearer for the Republicans during the Spanish Civil War. Auden's first volume of poetry appeared in 1930. Later volumes include Spain New Year Letter For the Time Being, a Christmas Oratorio The Age of Anxiety (1947; Pulitzer Prize), Nones The Shield of Achilles Homage to Clio About the House Epistle of a Godson and Other Poems (1972), and
