Thomas Edward Brown, the Manx Poet


Book Description

Excerpt from Thomas Edward Brown, the Manx Poet: An Appreciation A full and final appreciation of T. E. Brown as a poet has, in my judgment, still to be written; but I cordially welcome the essay of my young friend, to which he has asked me to prefix a few words of introduction. His essay is genuine and dis cerning, and I welcome it all the more because he had not, as I had, the immense privilege and pleasure of knowing Brown personally. He belongs to a later generation; he therefore in some degree anticipates the judgment of posterity. Brown's contemporaries have inadequately, as it seems to me, recognized his claims to be among the fixed stars of literature, and Mr. Selwyn Simpson's essay will do something to create in the next generation a wider and more serious study of Brown as a poet.
