Brief introduction of the author
Auden (wystan hugh auden, 1907- 1973) is recognized as a famous modern poet, the most important English poet after Eliot, and also a famous homosexual.
1968, W.H. Auden was nominated by Nobel Prize in Literature. Auden 1907 was born in England, and 1946 became an American citizen. He made full use of the historical traditions of Britain and America, and his works have deeper and wider connotations. Orton once appeared in Icelandic legends. Orton's writing skills, especially poetry writing skills, were deeply influenced by the major poetry schools in Northern Europe and were recognized as the most important English poet after Eliot and famous homosexuals. At the age of 46, I began to fall in love with 18-year-old poet Chester Kalman. Auden died of a heart attack in Vienna on 1973.
Auden is the most famous poet in modern English poetry. He studied at Oxford University and later lived in America. Auden's poems were influenced by Hopkins (G. M. Hopkins), Eliot (T. S. Eliot), Owen (W) and Tolkien (J.R.R.Tolkien), while his own thoughts were influenced by Marx, Freud and Kirkegaard (/Kloc-the first Danish philosopher in the 9th century). Auden believes that the western culture under the rule of capitalism is deteriorating, while the people are exhausted and devastated by machines. Regarding poetry, Auden once said: Poetry must be propaganda to exist. Auden's poems are characterized by rich and novel images, but this is also a headache for translators, because this benefit is difficult to show in translation. In addition to writing poems, Auden also collaborated with C. isherwood in two poetic dramas: The Rise of F-6 and Dogs Under the Skin.
In the turbulent 1930s in Britain, he joined hands with Lewis (Cecil Day Lewis, 1904- 1972), macneice (Louis macneice, 1907- 1963) and spender (Stephen Spender, 65438). Auden is not only a prolific writer: poetry, prose, drama and criticism are all excellent and have made great achievements; Moreover, he tried his best to explore a brand-new field of life, running around and trampling around, so his personal beliefs changed repeatedly: from early conversion to Freud's psychoanalysis, to Marxist historical philosophy, and finally to Christian theology. Not only that, but also. Auden visited China in distress with christopher isherwood (1904- 1986) in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and then published 27 sonnets in China, which had a great influence on China writers at that time.
British-American poet, one of the most important writers in the 20th century, traveled to China during his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, China, and co-authored The Battlefield Plays with his companion novelist Christopher Ishwood.
