'The Observer' described Anne Ridler as 'one of the best poets of
her generation.' Her first book, 'Poems', was published in 1939,
and her work developed in the light and shadow of the poets of the
day - MacNeice and Auden, but also Durrell and Watkins. As
important to her was an affinity with the secular and devotional
writers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Ambitious for
her poems, she was never ambitious for reputation. Her work, like
that of her friend E.J. Scovell, is only now receiving the
attention it deserves. She has published ten collections of poetry,
original and translated opera libretti, including Monteverdi's
'Orfeo'. She is the author of verse plays which have been performed
in Oxford and London. This volume contains all that she wishes to
preserve of her lyric poetry, together with choruses from the play
'The Trial of Thomas Cranmer'and a masque for music by Elizabeth
Maconchy, 'The Jesse Tree'.
