Edwin Muir Born in 1887 in Orkney, in childhood Edwin Muir experienced "Eden" before, aged fourteen, encountering the "fallen" world when circumstances forced his family to move to Glasgow. In four years, death seized both parents and two of Muir's five siblings, deepening his sense of the gulf between the Orkneys and the city and causing a nervous perturbation which shadowed his life and shaped his work. By 1919, Muir had married Willa Anderson , a happy partnership recorded in her loving memoir Belonging (1968), and moved to London where persisting psychological distress led him to Jungian analysis. A vision in which he was witness to the Creation inspired him fully to engage in his own "creation" as a poet. Indeed, experience made him see human life in such terms, individual "story" re-enacting archetypal "fable", loss of childhood innocence a reworking of man's expulsion from Eden. His world is full of paradox, good coexisting with evil, living with dying, love with hate, leading to images of journeys, of roads, of labyrinths:

Land Of The Gods Home Bio My Family My Town ... Site Awards Edwin Muir 'The Combat' (from 'The Labyrinth', 1949) It was not meant for human eyes, That combat on the shabby patch Of clods and trampled turf that lies Somewhere beneath the sodden skies For eye of toad or adder to catch. And having seen it I accuse The crested animal in his pride, Arrayed in all the royal hues Which hide the claws he well can use To tear the heart out of the side. Body of leopard, eagle's head And whetted beak, and lion's mane, And frost-grey hedge of feathers spread Behind he seemed of all things bred. I shall not see his like again. As for his enemy there came in A soft round beast as brown as clay; All rent and patched his wretched skin; A battered bag he might have been, Some old used thing to throw away. Yet he awaited face to face The furious beast and the swift attack. Soon over and done. That was no place Or time for chivalry or for grace.

Edwin Muir ("Edwin Moore") Edwin Muir was born on 15 May 1887 in Deerness, Orkney. When he was fourteen the family moved to Glasgow, where he had a series of menial jobs and became involved in left-wing politics. During World War I he worked in Greenock, and Muir's first book, "We Moderns" was published in 1918. He married Willa Anderson on 7 June 1919 and they settled in London, where he embarked on a career in literary journalism. Between 1921 and 1924 the Muirs travelled in Europe, and Muir wrote his novel "The Marionette" in France in 1926. There were to be two other novels, but it is as a poet that Muir is chiefly remembered. Most of the 30's were spent in Sussex and St. Andrews, and periods during the 40's were spent working for the British Council in Edinburgh, Prague and Rome. Muir was Warden of Newbattle Abbey College near Edinburgh ( George Mackay Brown was one of the students), and was Norton Professor of English at Harvard, 1955-56. He retired to Swaffham Prior near Cambridge, where he died on 3 January 1959. His "Collected Poems" were published the following year. Muir maintained that "Scotland can only create a national literature by writing in English"; this made him an opponent of the "Lallans" movement initiated by

by Robert Richman I n his Autobiography First Poems was published in 1925, when Muir was thirty-eight. It had been preceded by a ten-year spell of odd jobs, unsettled opinions (Nietzsche, socialism), and unhappy love affairs. He had already produced a volume of aphoristic essays, We Moderns Selected Poems ouevre Autobiography The Estate of Poetry (1962), his last book of criticism, published posthumously, Muir expanded on this idea: Hugo von Hofmannsthal once said that true imagination is always conservative. By this he may have meant that it keeps intact the bond which unites us with the past of mankind, so that we can still understand Odysseus and Penelope, and the people of the Old Testament. Or he may have meant something more: that imagination is able to do this because it sees the life of everyone as the endless repetition of a single pattern. It is hard to explain how we enter into past lives if this is not done. We become human by repetition. . . . Every human being . . . will pass through the ancestral pattern, from birth to childhood and youth and manhood and age and death. He will feel hope and fear and love and hate and perhaps forgiveness.
