In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet
of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and
critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors
offer insights into their own work as well as providing an
accessible and passionate introduction to the most important poets
in our literature. Thomas Campion (1567-1620) was born in London
and educated at Cambridge. He studied law at Gray's Inn, and was
both a poet and composer - a contemporary not only of Shakespeare,
Drayton, Marlowe and Jonson, but also of Byrd, Morley, Gibbons and
Dowland. Campion wrote over one hundred lute songs, published
between 1601 and 1617 in four Books of Ayres, as well as a treatise
on The Art of English Poesie, and a number of masques. His work was
not rediscovered until the nineteenth century; since then, whoever
dreams of a poem where language begins to resemble music thinks of
Campion.
