William Ellery Leonard was an eccentric poet, professor, and critic
whose romantic ideals were set against a world whose aesthetics
were fast turning away from his own. He lived a life marked by both
success and dramatic failure, both personally and professionally.
His first wife's suicide would haunt him and mark one of his
greatest poems, the sonnet sequence Two Lives; his translations of
Lucretius and Beowulf stood as hallmarks of the craft for decades
after they were published; and his political satires written in
response to the University sphere he lived and worked in remain as
effective today as they once were.
