Inhalt
A new selection and retrospect of the career of Stephen Spender, as poet and translator, to mark the 2009 centenary of his birth. Stephen Spender, the son of a journalist, born in London, was educated at University College, Oxford, where he met, among others, W.H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood, writing powerfully of the confusion and alarm of 1930s Europe. He visited Spain during the Civil War, in 1937, where he assisted the Republican cause with propaganda activity. His post-war memoir »World Within World« was recognised as one of the most illuminating literary autobiographies to have come out of the 1930s and 1940s, distilling a distinctively personal, humanistic socialism. Spender's poetry has been praised for its exploratory candour, its personal approach to the stresses of modernity, and its exact portraiture of social and political upheaval.
