Richard Vallance The Vallance Review November, 2002 In Commemoration of REMEMBRANCE DAY, 2002: Rupert Brooke’s, "The Dead" (1915) BIOGRAPHY OF RUPERT BROOKE (1887 - 1915) Rupert Chawner Brooke was born in Rugby, Warwickshire, in 1887. Even as a child, he loved poetry, and went on to win his school’s poetry prize at in 1905. He attended upper school at King’s College, Cambridge, where he won his matriculation in 1911, becoming a Fellow the following year. Though his life was as meteoric as a falling star, he was long on charm, and easily won the affection of practically everyone who met him. On the surface of things, it seemed his sunny personality matched his stunning physical beauty. He was so beautiful that one of his female friends, Frances Cornford, granddaughter of Charles Darwin, penned these memorable words about him in her 1908 poem: "A young Apollo, golden-haired, Stands dreaming on the verge of strife, Magnificently unprepared For the long littleness of life." [R1] Photo: Rupert Brooke (1913) by Sherril Schell These words seem to epitomize Rupert Brooke’s destiny: he would soon be long remembered as a late Romantic poet, whose nobility and strength of character in the face of duress, and whose patriotic views would be practically cast in stone.

The Dead More Poems by Brooke Biography For one whom Yeats proclaimed "the handsomest young man in England," Rupert Brooke has not aged well. The neo-Romanticism of Brooke and the Georgian Poets was one of the casualties of The Great War. Paul Fussell (in The Great War and Modern Memory ) sees irony as one of the by-products of the First World War, and one of the many ironies of the war is that Rupert Brooke is remembered as a war poet at all, because he is actually not a war poet not in the same sense that Siegfried Sassoon , Robert Graves and Wilfred Owen are war poets. Rupert Brooke is rather a pre-war poet. To borrow Blake's contrast, Brooke wrote Songs of Innocence Songs of Experience Brooke's entire reputation as a war poet rests on only 5 "war sonnets" (6 if you count " Treasure " unnumbered in his short sonnet cycle). Brooke's war experience consisted of one day of limited military action with the Hood Battalion during the evacuation of Antwerp. Consequently, his "war sonnets" swell with sentiments of the most general kind on the themes of maturity, purpose and romantic death the kind of sentiments held by many (but not all) young Englishmen at the outbreak of the war. Brooke's "war sonnets" are really more a declaration occasioned by the ups and downs of his tumultuous personal life than a call to war for his generation.

Rupert Brooke (1887 - 1915) If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England. The Soldier A gifted and handsome man, Brooke's early death in World War One contributed to his idealized image in the interwar period. After leaving Cambridge, Brooke studied in Germany and travelled in Italy, but his favourite pastime was rambling in the countryside around the village of Grantchester, which he celebrated in his poem, 'The Old Vicarage, Grantchester' (1912). This piece was typical of the 'Georgian' school of poetry, practised before war broke out by poets including Hilaire Belloc, Robert Graves, Walter de la Mare and Siegfried Sassoon. This poetry was lyrical, taking its inspiration from nature and the countryside, and is now generally disregarded as lifeless and conventional. Brooke's poems were published in 1911, and after a year wandering in the North America and the South Seas, he was commissioned into the Royal Navy. After taking part in a disastrous expedition to Antwerp, he sailed for the Dardanelles. He never reached them, dying of septicaemia on a hospital ship off Skyros, where he was buried in an olive grove. Rupert Brooke caught the optimism of the opening months of the war, with his wartime sonnets 1914 (1915) expressing an idealism in the face of death that contrasts strongly to poetry published later in the war and after his death. They brought him immediate - albeit posthumous - fame.

Brooke's best-known work is the sonnet sequence 1914 AND OTHER POEMS (1915), containing the famous 'The Soldier.' Poets have always glorified war, and Brooke did his best to continue the tradition, and sacrifice himself in this effort. His death made him the hero of the first phase of the war and a canonized symbol of all the gifted young people destroyed by the conflict. However, Brooke's poetry with its patriotic mood and naive enthusiasm went out of fashion as the realities of warfare were fully understood. "If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England." (from 'The Soldier' In 1911 appeared Brooke first collection of verse, POEMS, and his work was featured in the periodical Georgian Poetry , edited by his friend, Sir Edward Marsh. Over the next twenty years, the book sold almost 100 000 copies. In 1911 Brooke was secretly engaged to Noel Olivier, five years his junior. The affair was for all participants frustrating and subsequently Brooke had an affair with the actress Cathleen Nesbitt. Overworked and emotionally empty, Brooke suffered a nervous breakdown. In the spring of 1912, Brooke and Ka Cox went to Germany, where he wrote 'The Old Vicarage, Grantchester', which is among his most admired poems. It has been assumed that Ka Cox bore Brooke's stillborn child. In England Brooke assembled with others the hugely successful anthology

V The Solider I Peace Now, God be thanked Who has matched us with His hour, And caught our youth, and wakened us from sleeping, With hand made sure, clear eye, and sharpened power, To turn, as swimmers into cleanness leaping, Glad from a world grown old and cold and weary, Leave the sick hearts that honour could not move, And half-men, and their dirty songs and dreary, And all the little emptiness of love! Oh! we, who have known shame, we have found release there, Where there’s no ill, no grief, but sleep has mending, Naught broken save this body, lost but breath; Nothing to shake the laughing heart’s long peace there But only agony, and that has ending; And the worst friend and enemy is but Death. Rupert Brooke (1887 - 1915) II Safety Dear! of all happy in the hour, most blest He who has found our hid security, Assured in the dark tides of the world that rest, And heard our word, 'Who is so safe as we?' We have found safety with all things undying, The winds, and morning, tears of men and mirth
