Description: A. E. Housman Revisited, an entirely new book in Twayne's English Authors Series, is at once a biography and a critical commentary that historicizes Housman and his work. Terence Allan Hoagwood, author of previous scholarly studies of Housman and a poet himself, has provided a well-written and comprehensive introduction to a central figure in English literature.

Three chapters examine Housman's life, emphasizing the connection of his thought and work with the context of turbulent and even violent change in which he lived and wrote. Other chapters include specific commentary on every poem in A Shropshire Lad and selected poems from Housman's other books.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 117-123) and index.
