Poetry

The brilliance of Sappho has been obscured by rumour and neglect

We should feel fortunate indeed to have the Aeneid

Arty types: the fashionable poet

The disappearance of a praiseful review for a “cancelled” writer is as disturbing as it is bizarre

The poet is less read than he once was but his deep love of England still resonates

Activist poet

The poetry of Tennyson is no gorgeous trick of words, no siren song

Infamy, poetry and exhibitionistic vulnerability

A powerful evangelist for poetry, without a coherent proposition about English identity

The poet who should be celebrated by the Church of England
