Autorenporträt
John Masefield (1878-1967) was an English poet, writer, and poet laureate renowned for his narrative poetry and contributions to literature. His works often reflect his seafaring experiences and deep appreciation for adventure and storytelling. Sea Voyages: His early experiences at sea profoundly influenced his writing. He sailed around Cape Horn and worked on various ships, which provided rich material for his literary works. Desertion: He eventually deserted his ship in New York and lived as a vagrant, working various odd jobs before returning to England in 1897. Notable work," Salt-Water Ballads" (1902): A collection of poems inspired by his experiences at sea. "The Everlasting Mercy" (1911): A narrative poem that brought him widespread acclaim. "Reynard the Fox" (1919): Another notable narrative poem. "ODTAA" (1926): A novel reflecting his adventurous spirit and narrative skill. Masefield was appointed Poet Laureate of the United Kingdom in 1930, a position he held until his death in 1967. As Poet Laureate, he wrote numerous poems for state occasions and continued to produce a significant body of work. His tenure as Poet Laureate is noted for its longevity and productivity, and he remains one of the longest-serving Poet Laureates in British history. John Masefield's literary legacy is marked by his vivid portrayal of life at sea, his adventurous narratives, and his ability to capture the essence of the human experience through his poetry and prose.
