John Clare (1793-1864), the 'peasant poet', worked as an
agricultural labourer in Northamptonshire until a deterioration in
his mental health saw him committed to an insane asylum. He
published four volumes of verse, including Poems, Descriptive of
Rural Life and Scenery (1820), and The Shepherd's Calendar (1827).
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 some of the greatest
poets of our literature.
