Wystan Hugh Auden Were all stars to disappear or die, I should learn to look at an empty sky And feel its total darkness sublime, Though this might take me a little time. W. H. Auden Funeral Blues The Unknown Citizen Lay Your Sleeping Head, My Love ... The Two 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. Auden's earliest works are startling in several ways. They contain unusual meters, words, and images, juxtapose industrial and natural landscapes, and mix the rhythms of poetry with those of jazz music. Some critics feel that Auden's first books, Poems (1930) and The Orators, an English Study

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.

8. W H Auden At The Downs Tribute to W.H. auden at the Downs School, where he once taught English. http://www.fransnet.clara.net/thedowns/archive/auden.htm

A famous poet The Downs School was founded in 1900. It has had many distinguished visitors through its doors. The famous poet W H Auden (pictured right in a pupil's sketch) was appointed to teach English in 1932. In the three years that he was at The Downs, Wystan Auden wrote a great deal of both prose and poetry, some of which appeared first in the Badger, the school's magazine. Highly imaginative himself, he was able to bring out the imagination of boys, some of the writing which they produced at that time being outstanding. In the summer of 1934, he and two friends drove to the Carpathians, returning via Hungary and Austria. On his return he wrote an article called In search of Dracula' in which his eye for seeing the unusual, and his irrepressible humour appear throughout: 'Band very inquisitive and thirsty. The school where I teach, I told them, is the most aristocratic in England. The headmaster never appears except in spurs and on an Arab stallion and the games master lives on the raw flesh of freshly killed stags.' They returned to Dover with fourpence between them. At the end of that term he wrote a review in which all the boys and staff took part. Unfortunately, neither the libretto nor the songs - for which he wrote the music - have survived apart from one or two song titles such as 'Oh its hard to be a new boy'. The review ended with 'Holidays, jolly days, no more melancholy days' sung from the London train.

Auden Wystan Hugh Auden was born in York, England, in 1907. He moved to Birmingham during childhood and was educated at Christ's Church, Oxford. As a young man he was influenced by the poetry of Thomas Hardy and Robert Frost , as well as William Blake Emily Dickinson Gerard Manley Hopkins , and Old English verse. At Oxford his precocity as a poet was immediately apparent, and he formed lifelong friendships with two fellow writers, Stephen Spender and Christopher Isherwood. In 1928, Auden published his first book of verse, and his collection Poems , published in 1930, established him as the leading voice of a new generation. Ever since, he has been admired for his unsurpassed technical virtuosity and an ability to write poems in nearly every imaginable verse form; the incorporation in his work of popular culture, current events, and vernacular speech; and also for the vast range of his intellect, which drew easily from an extraordinary variety of literatures, art forms, social and political theories, and scientific and technical information. He had a remarkable wit, and often mimicked the writing styles of other poets such as Dickinson, W. B. Yeats

Auden, W. H. 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

Home Quotation Aesthetic Movement Anecdotes ... John Woolman W. H. Auden Quotations Auden, W(ystan) H(ugh) (1907-73) "A poet is, before anything else, a person who is passionately in love with language." "In the course of many centuries a few labor-saving devices have been introduced into the mental kitchenalcohol, coffee, tobacco, benzedrinebut these mechanisms are very crude, liable to injure the cook, and constantly breaking down. Writing poetry in the twentieth century A.D. is pretty much the same as it was in the twentieth century B.C.: nearly everything has still to be done by hand." "A society which really was like a poem and embodied all the esthetic values of beauty, order, economy, subordination of detail to the whole effect, would be a nightmare of horror, based on selective breeding, extermination of the physically or mentally unfit, absolute obedience to its Director, and a large slave class kept out of sight in cellars." "All poets adore explosions, thunderstorms, tornadoes, conflagrations, ruins, scenes of spectacular carnage. The poetic imagination is therefore not at all a desirable quality in a chief of state." "Faust is damned, not because he has sinned, but because he made a pact with the Devil, that is, like a poet he planned a life of sin beforehand."
