Poems by Alfred Edward Housman
Poems by E. H. Housman. Alfred Edward Housman ( 26 March 1859 – 30 April 1936), usually known as A. E. Housman, was an English classical scholar as well as a poet. His cycle of poems, A Shropshire Lad tristfully summons feelings and disappointments of rural English youth. Their straightforwardness and pronounced imagery appealed to the Edwardian taste, and to many early 20th-century English composers, both before and after the World War.
