Overview
Rupert Brooke of Rugby, revised 2nd edition, contains biography and commentary as well as Brookes poetry, prose, and photographs. The edition includes Keith Hales complete Rupert Brooke: The Bisexual Brooke, Updated and Expanded Edition, Brookes Collected Poems with introductions by Margaret Lavington and George Edward Woodberry, and Brookes Letters from America with an introduction by Henry James.When Rupert Brooke died of blood poisoning on his way to fight the Turkish forces at Gallipoli in 1915, his friends in England were quick to turn him into a national hero--a patriotic symbol of the many young men of England going to war. That Brooke had recently published five sonnets glorifying patriotic sacrifice did much to promote his legend. That his friends included Winston Churchill, Anthony Asquith, and General Ian Hamilton did even more. To maintain the patriotic legend after the war, Brooks biography was altered beyond recognition. In this volume, that misinformation is corrected, leaving Brookes poetry and prose to be read through a new lens.Rupert Brooke was a man of his time, just not the man that Winston Churchill and the early Brooke Trustees made him out to be. He was delivered a serious disservice by being labeled a "war poet," and was dealt further injustice when critics dismissed his poetry as detached from his life experience. This volume details the bowdlerization of Brooke by his early biographers, discusses Brookes sexuality, and ties Brookes early poems to the romantic friendships he developed at Rugby School. Brookes poetry is then presented, followed by his travel writing, complete with the stunning tribute by Henry James. Photographs of Brooke and his romantic interests appear throughout the book and tell a story of their own.Watersgreen House is an independent international book publisher with editorial staff in the UK and USA.
