This is the first volume in a five-volume edition of the complete
poetical works of Ivor Gurney (1890-1937). Following an extensive
study of all known manuscripts, the edition brings much of that
work to publication for the first time. Since his death, much of
his work has been censored or overlooked, his stylistic development
towards modernism written off as the product of 'insanity' The
availability of his complete poetry will change absolutely our
understanding of Gurney's development, and the true nature of his
poetry. It will lay bare his aspirations and pursuits as an artist
in all its diversity, as a poet of war, of place, and of the
asylum; a poet whose work has been celebrated by Geoffrey Hill for
its 'incontestible grandeur'. Volume I presents all of Gurney's
poems written from March 1907 to December 1918. It begins with
Gurney's earliest surviving verse, and ends, just after the
Armistice, with his return to civilian life.
