Wystan Hugh Auden (1907-1973) was born in York, England, in 1907. He moved to
Birmingham during childhood and was educated at Christ Church, Oxford. As a young
man, he was influenced by the poetry of Thomas Hardy and Robert Frost as well as
William Blake, Emily Dickinson, Gerard Manley Hopkins, and Old English verse. In
1928, his collection Poems was privately printed, but it was not until 1930, when
another collection titled Poems (though its contents was different) was published, that
Auden was established as the leading voice of a new generation.
