關於作者

Edward Thomas remains a distinguished figure in the annals of British literature, best remembered for his poignant poetry that captures the essence of rural England with remarkable sensitivity. Born Philip Edward Thomas on March 3, 1878, in London, he initially pursued prose, authoring several books of criticism, biographies, and volumes about the English countryside. However, it was his close friendship with American poet Robert Frost that urged Thomas to turn his talents to poetry, leading to the creation of his most cherished works (Motion, 2011). Thomas's 'Last Poems' encapsulates the mature voice of a writer who, despite late entry into poetry, made a profound impact upon the genre. His literary style, characterized by a deep appreciation of nature, introspection, and a melancholic tone, distinguished his poems which often explored themes of impermanence and the human relationship with the natural world. Many of his poems were published posthumously, as Thomas's burgeoning literary renaissance was tragically cut short by his death in the Battle of Arras on April 9, 1917. Edward Thomas's contribution to literature has been honored through numerous memorials and scholarly works that continue to explore his rich legacy (Kirkham, 1987).
