Autorenporträt
Lascelles Abercrombie (1881-1938) was an English poet, critic, and pivotal figure in the Georgian poetry movement of the early 20th century. Born in Ashton upon Mersey, Sale, Cheshire, Abercrombie cultivated a style marked by both its embrace of traditional epic forms and its innovative modern sensibility, exploring themes of nature, mythology, and human psychology. He received his education at Malvern College and went on to study at Victoria University, Manchester. His scholarly works often shone a light on the interplay between mythology and contemporary life, as exemplified by his noteworthy poem, 'The Epic,' which delves into the life of an artist struggling against the constraints of societal expectations and personal conflict. Abercrombie's literary contributions are not confined to poetry; he was also an influential literary critic who contributed to the development of modernist thought through his lectures and essays. His critical works, such as 'The Theory of Poetry' and 'Thomas Hardy: A Critical Study,' provided incisive analyses of narrative structure and poetic form, marking him as an erudite scholar of literature. Abercrombie's lyrical style and adherence to traditional metrics and rhyme while simultaneously engaging with the social and philosophical issues of his time set him apart from his peers. He was named the first Professor of English at the University of Leeds in 1922, a testament to his significant impact on the study and creation of literature in the early twentieth century.
