This fourth volume of W. H. Auden’s prose
provides a unique picture of this legendary
writer’s mind and art when he was at the
height of his powers, from 1956 through
1962, including the years when he was Pro-
fessor of Poetry at Oxford. The volume in-
cludes his best-known and most important
prose collection, The Dyer s Hand, as well
as scores of essays, reviews, and lectures on
subjects ranging from J. R. R. Tolkien and
Martin Luther to psychedelic drugs, cook-
ing, and Homer. Much of the material has
never been collected in book form, and
some selections, such as the witty orations
Auden wrote for ceremonies at Oxford Uni-
versity, are almost entirely unknown.
Edward Mendelson’s introduction and
comprehensive notes provide biographical
and historical explanations of all obscure
references. The text includes extensive cor-
rections and revisions that Auden marked
in personal copies of his work and which
are printed here for the first time.
