Talk:W. H. Auden

Source 📝

1971:"The 1994 cinema hit Four Weddings and a Funeral helped bring the poem to the attention of the general public, when a character played by actor John Hannah reads an excerpt at the film’s emotional climax. As a result of overwhelming public demand for copies of the poem, Tell Me the Truth About Love: Ten Poems by W. H. Auden, a collection of Auden’s verse and cabaret songs from the 1930s including “Funeral Blues”, was rushed to press soon after the film’s release. Reviewer David Gritten noted in the Los Angeles Times that the film created “a sudden demand all over England” for Auden’s works. Americans have also shown an increased interest in the author. Filmgoers and readers responded to “Funeral Blues’” heartfelt expression of grief over the death of a loved one. The poem expresses a rhythmical, intimate portrait of the totality of love and the devastating consequences of its absence." 2256:, Auden's biographer Davenport-Hines reports a prolonged process of moving his residency from New York City to Christ Church, Oxford, with a first departure on 15 April 1972 (p. 336), and return to New York, in September 1972, "to complete his packing, and on 30 September left the United States for the last time" (p. 337). The process started even earlier: "in January 1972, chiefly at David Luke's instigation, Christ Church offered him a tenancy of a cottage in its grounds known as the Brewhouse ... His preparations to leave New York City were immediate" (p. 335). Therefore, we suggest indicating the period of relocation from January until September 1972. 422: 1062: 989: 1041: 1072: 1461:
But so far this happy state of things has not been reached in all varieties of English, hence Butterfield's advice to go for 'learned' for both uses. The old boy did indeed comment on burnt/burned in the original 1926 edition, saying the former was standard and the latter obsolescent and would-be poetical. Time has not borne that judgment out, I'd say, as the Burchfield and now the Butterfield revisions of MEU are much less emphatic in support of burnt.

of health? How and why did he die? And where was he when he died? There should also be at least a brief mention of Auden's most noticeable physical characteristic: his profoundly wrinkled face, and the disease syndrome that accounted for it. Also, more information is needed about his relationship with Chester Kallman, which was so important to him. The article does well as far as it goes; but it does not go far enough.

ones, that would clutter up the page if they were also added. I tend to think that this external link would be most appropriately replaced with a listing in a category "Recipients of the St. Louis Literary Award," which perhaps the editor might want to create. But I don't want to remove the new link without consensus, and would be grateful for any views. -

Yes, exactly. A love poem is a poem addressed to someone whom the poet loves; a poem about love is a poem about the feeling and effects or nature of love. For example, Auden's 'O Tell Me the Truth about Love' is a poem about love (as the title indicates even before you read the poem itself) but it is

Well, I'll see what I can put together. There are plaques at York, Birmingham, Manhattan (currently in storage, I think), Brooklyn, Vienna, and the one at Christ Church, Oxford. A list would certainly make more sense than a paragraph about things put up by tourist offices which have minimal relevance

Fowler (first edition, pp. 594-595) expresses the hope that the ‘–t’ form will prevail, but notes that the ‘–ed’ forms ‘still prevail in print’. In the current edition (ed. Butterfield) ‘learned’ is favoured on the grounds that it is common in all varieties of English, whereas ‘learnt’ is less common

Actually, Davenport-Hines is right, and I was wrong. He returned to New York from 19 September through 30 September 1972 packing his books for the move to England. So the correct date is September 1972. It's clearly misleading to say that the move occurred over a longer period of time. When I bought
1909:
The article is full of detailed information about Auden's career, his poetry, and his most famous relationships. But it is strangely incomplete about his endgame. Biographies have stated that as he grew older, he lived in incredible disorder, loneliness and lack of support. Why? What was his state

I wrote my comment without seeing that Martinevans123 had already posted. In response: Do we really want to list all the memorial plaques, etc., in the "Reputation and influence" section? If that's the general opinion, I'll gather up the ones I know about, but I'm not sure that a listing of memorial

I've gone ahead and commented out the external link to the St. Louis Literary Award. Auden got dozens of similar awards, and none of the others are linked on the page; it has no historical significance at all, and is simply a vanity link that calls attention to the organization that gives the award.

1927:
This is a very apt comment. I've added some factual details. Auden's personal and emotional experience in his later years gets reported in different ways depending on the point of the view of the person reporting it, and the essay does not report on Auden's emotional state at any point in his life,
1612:
An editor recently added to this page (and to dozens of others) an external link to the web page for the St. Louis Literary Award. I wonder if other editors who work on this page think it's suitable to add one such links when Auden received dozens of comparable awards, including many more prominent
2335:
Done. In fact, Auden spent almost no time organizing for the move. There are memoirs (one in the Village Voice, another by a bookseller in his memoirs) of his arriving in New York in September and packing and discarding his books in less than two weeks, possibly in a few days. That was his entire

I've commented out a sentence about a memorial to Auden in his old college Christ Church because (1) it's not relevant to the "life" section where it was added (there's a reference to the far more significant memorial in Westminster Abbey elsewhere on the page); (2) it isn't a "burial site" (as it
1460:
Your point about the two pronunciations is addressed most directly in the Gowers revision, where he says (quite rightly, I think) that it would be good if the two different pronunciations were spelled (or spelt?) to match what the ear hears, so that the lesson is learnt but the teacher is learned.
1928:
leaving this to the sensitive reporting by biographers like Richard Davenport-Hines, who is exceptionally subtle on these details, and can't easily be summarized. But it should be possible to add details in a responsible, thoroughly-sourced way, and I'll certainly work on it. Thank you again. -

Thanks, I knew he had lived in Homer Road, just wondered if 100% of his residence locations had been covered, as these cottages (I think a row of 4 ) are very specific and distinct from the rest of the street. Not saying he did, but unusual thing for someone to tell me if not true.

1013: 1445:
Learned has an alternative adjectival sense if the last e is sounded, although somewhat old-fashioned now? But I guess there's no possibility of confusion here. I think there's a similar argument over burned and burnt - does Fowler mention these?
1529:
I much prefer "learnt" here, but we must strive to accommodate all current Englishes, and so I think we are right to follow the current Fowler and go for "learned". Not sure I agree about judg(e)ment, on which I can never make up my mind.
1696:
The article doesn't mention any other plaques, but it has a picture of one of them. Surely a picture with a suitable caption makes the most sense here? (I think there's also one at his birthplace in York, but I'm not certain of that.) -
