To Present
Oxford Prof
By DEE DEE RABE
Robert Graves, professor of
poetry at Oxford University,
will-present selected readings
from his poetry at 8:30 p.m.
tomorrow in Schwab.
The lecture will be the last in
a series sponsored by the Liberal
Arts Student Council.
Graves is noted not only as a
poet, but also as a critic, novelist
and historian. His works include:
'‘Collected Poems 1914-1917.” “Po
ems and Satires” (1951). “Poems”
(1959), and “Crowning Privilege”
(1955).
Graves was born in London in;
1895 and attended Charier house;
and St. John’s College. Oxford. He;
served as a captain in the British 1
infantry during World War I. Aft
er the war, he became a professor
of English literature at Egyptian
University in Cairo.
Allen Tate, American poet
and critic has commented, "Mr.
Graves made his name as a
poet during the war of 1314. He
wrote straight-forward lyrics
adorned with a touch of homely,
folktale fantasy."
According to Tate, “Graves de
veloped an intellectual strain in
his work, and ‘stripped’ his style
to evolve a new sort of manner.”
Tate explains that it is more
difficult to write in this manner,
but the effect is more subtle be
cause it is concentrated and iron
ical.
“Graves is one of the strong
est and most individual poets now
•writing, and, like Yeats, manages
to bridge the gulf between the
old poetry and the new while re
maining true to his own inspira
tion,'’ Tate said.
