Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Australian Poets, 1788-1888: Being a Selection of Poems Upon All Subjects, Written in Australia and Newzealand During the First Century of the British Colonization With Brief Notes on Their Authors and an Introduction by Patchett Martin The name of Douglas B. W. Sladen, Australia´s poet laureate, is well known outside the big island which he has made his home. A little over a year ago Mr. Sladen visited this country for purposes connected with his literary work, and he was cordially received by American men of letters to whom his name had long been familiar. Although an Australian by residence and marriage, Mr. Sladen is an Englishman by birth and education. He took open classical scholarships at Cheltenham College, and Trinity College, Oxford, and graduated B.A. with a "first class" in modern history. He then emigrated to Melbourne, where he graduated B.A. and LL.B., and in 1882 was appointed to the chair of History in the University of Sydney. This he resigned in 1884 and returned to England. He has published "Frithjof and Ingebjorg," "Australian Lyrics," Poetry of Exile," "A Summer Christmas," "In Cornwall and Across the Sea," and "Edward the Black Prince"; also two novels, "Dick Stalwart, an Oxonian," and "Seized by a Shadow." More recently he has edited the volume of "Australian Ballads and Rhymes" in William Sharp´s Canterbury Poets Series, and the present volume, "Australian Poets."
