Extractions: Send it to a friend! Brooke was an English poet whose neo-Romantic poems and premature death in World War One contributed to his fame and idealised image. Rupert Brooke was born on 3 August 1887. His father was a housemaster at Rugby School. After leaving Cambridge University, where he became friends with many of those in the 'Bloomsbury Group', Brooke studied in Germany and travelled in Italy. In 1909 he moved to the village of Grantchester, near Cambridge, which he celebrated in his poem, 'The Old Vicarage, Grantchester' (1912). His first collection of poems was published in 1911. In 1913 Brooke became a fellow of King's College, Cambridge, his old college. In the same year, he left England to travel in North America, New Zealand and the Pacific islands. He returned home shortly before the outbreak of World War One. He was commissioned into the Royal Naval Division and took part in the disastrous Antwerp expedition in October 1914. In February 1915, he set sail for the Dardanelles. On board ship he developed septicaemia from a mosquito bite. He died on 23 April 1915 on a hospital ship off the Greek island of Skyros and was buried in an olive grove on the island.

Best PC Games - War Best PC Games - FPS ... Casualties of the First World War From Robert Wilde Born in 1887, Rupert Brooke experienced a comfortable childhood in a rarified atmosphere, living around - and then attending - the school at Rugby, a famed British institution where his father worked as a housemaster. The boy soon grew into a man whose handsome figure transfixed admirers of either sex: almost six foot tall, he was academically clever, good at sports - representing the school in cricket and, of course, rugby - and disarming in character. He was also highly creative: Rupert wrote verse throughout his childhood, having allegedly gained a love of poetry from reading Browning. Education A move to King's College, Cambridge, in 1906 did nothing to dim his popularity - friends included E. M. Forster, Maynard Keynes and Virginia Stephens (later Woolf) - while he broadened into acting and socialism, becoming president of the University's branch of the Fabian Society. His studies in the classics may have suffered as a result, but Brooke moved in elite circles, including that of the famous Bloomsbury set. Moving outside Cambridge, Rupert Brooke lodged in Grantchester, where he worked on a thesis and created poems devoted to his ideal of English country life, many of which formed part of his first collection, simply entitled Poems 1911. In addition, he visited Germany, learning the language.

Extractions: Rupert Brooke was educated at Rugby School where his father was a housemaster. He was popular, not least because of his good looks (he was "the most handsome man in England" according to WB Yeats) and charisma and after winning a scholarship to King's College, Cambridge, he spent his time there establishing himself as a major figure on the literary scene. His friends included EM Forster, Virginia Woolf and the economist John Maynard Keynes (all members of the 'Bloomsbury Group') and in his short lifetime he won the respect and admiration as a poet of the highest order. Brooke's early poetry is not that for which he is remembered, but is startling - particularly for those familiar with his war poems of 1914 - in its candour (see "Heaven"). He began writing poems in 1909 and his Poems 1911 and pieces written for the first two Georgian Poetry (1912) volumes organised by his friends EH Marsh and HE Monro (later attacked by radical poets Pound and Eliot but now well regarded).

Extractions: Updated - Sunday, 2 September, 2001 Rupert Brooke (1887-1915) was born into a well-to-do, academic family; his father was a housemaster at Rugby School, where Rupert was educated before going on to King's College, Cambridge. He was a good student and athlete, and - in part because of his strikingly handsome looks - a popular young man who eventually numbered among his friends E. M. Forster, Maynard Keynes, Virginia Woolf, and Edward Thomas. Even as a student he was familiar in literary circles and came to know many important political, literary and social figures before the war. Brooke actually saw little combat during the war; he contracted blood-poisoning from a small neglected injury and died in April 1915, in the Aegean. Brooke's reputation, aside from the myth of the fallen "golden warrior" that his friends set about creating almost immediately after his death, rests on the five war sonnets of 1914. Some of his earlier poetry - "Fish," Helen and Menelaus," and "Heaven" - however, shows us a much different side of Brooke's talent and temperament. Some critics doubt that he would have written the sonnets later in the war had he lived. They show an enthusiasm that most soldiers and poets eventually lost; another poet

Friday, 8 June 2007 More than 90 years ago, the most handsome man in Britain was on a troop ship, thinking of the beautiful actress he had left behind. Before the ship reached its destination off the Turkish coast, Rupert Brooke took up his pen and poured out his feelings: A collection of 82 of Brooke's letters went under the hammer at Christie's, in London, this week. They were all addressed to Cathleen Nesbitt who, unlike Brooke, lived to a grand old age. She was in the Broadway productions of My Fair Lady and Gigi in the 1950s, and died in 1982, aged 94.

Extractions: Brooke, Rupert (1887-1915) The English poet Rupert Brooke was bisexual, reflecting his sexuality in both his letters and his poetry. Rupert Brooke was born on August 3, 1887, and died at the age of twenty-seven while on his way to fight at Gallipoli. Because his death followed shortly after the publication of five sonnets extolling the virtues of patriotic sacrifice, Brooke's tragic early death (and, no doubt, his good looks) became inextricably linked in the public mind with his sonnets glorifying war, and a national hero was bornone bearing little resemblance to the actual man. Sponsor Message. To maintain the patriotic legend, Brooke's first literary executor, Geoffrey Keynes, spent a lifetime trying to downplay Brooke's attraction to men. However, until December 1907, when Brooke was twenty years old, he neverin his personal relationships or in his lettersexhibited any attraction to the opposite sex. When Keynes edited a collection of Brooke's letters, even he felt compelled to allow into print some of them from Brooke's schoolboy days describing crushes on other boystwo in particularalthough their names (Charles Lascelles and Michael Sadleir) were deleted by Keynes. Brooke's love for these two boys was deeply felt (particularly in the case of Lascelles), but it was not until the age of twenty-two that he engaged in sex with another man, Denham Russell Smith, the younger brother of a friend.
