The Oxford Book of English Verse, 1250-1900

Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch

The Oxford Book of English Verse was first published in 1900 and it initiated the famous series of Oxford Books that has been running ever since. It quickly established itself as a classic anthology, equal to Palgrave's Golden Treasury in popularity and public recognition. Having sold half amillion copies in 21 impressions, a second edition appeared in 1939, extending the book by a hundred pages and increasing the representation of the early part of the twentieth century.Concentrating for the most part on lyrical poetry, Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch sought to range over the whole field of English verse from the thirteenth century to the close of the First World War. He established an arrangement of the poets by date of birth, using modernized spelling after the veryearliest poems. He held firmly to the belief that old favourites deserved their place as much as new discoveries, and held himself at odds with those who sneer `at things long by catholic consent accounted beautiful'. In declaring the enduring nature of the English verse tradition, `Q' ensured thatThe Oxford Book of English Verse would itself endure and prosper.

Shining ferry, by 'Q'.

Q (as he called himself) travelled down the River Avon from its source with an artist friend Alfred Parsons (known as P) who drew charming illustrations for the articles. They walked beside the first part of the river and then launched a Canadian canoe at the Avon Mill in Rugby for the remainder of their journey. They stayed at inns along the course of the river and ended up where the Avon joins the river Severn at Tewkesbury. - OurWarwickshire.org.
