Full Description
Frank Laurence Lucas (1894-1967) was a renowned English author, poet and classicist, often remembered for his polemical attacks on key modernist figures such as T. S. Eliot, as well as his meticulous scholarship in the production of texts such as the four-volume Complete Works of John Webster. First published in 1933, this book presents an accessible selection of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's poetry edited by Lucas. The text is divided into two parts, with the first part containing translated works by other poets and the second original works by Rossetti. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Rossetti's poetry and the writings of Lucas.
