   Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Edwin Muir 15 May 3 January ) was a Scottish poet, novelist, and noted translator born on a farm in Deerness on the Orkney Islands . Remembered for his deeply felt and vivid poetry in plain, unostentatious language with few stylistic preoccupations, Muir is a significant modern poet. In 1901, when he was 14, his father lost his farm, and the family moved to Glasgow . In quick succession his father, two brothers, and his mother died within the space of a few years. His life as a young man was a depressing experience, and involved a raft of unpleasant jobs. "He suffered psychologically in a most destructive way, although perhaps the poet of later years benefited from these experiences as much as from his Orkney 'Eden'." In 1919, Muir married Willa Anderson, and the two moved to London . They would later collaborate on highly acclaimed English translations of such writers as Franz Kafka Gerhart Hauptmann Sholem Asch Heinrich Mann , and Hermann Broch Between 1921 and 1923, Muir lived in

At the age of 35 he turned to writing poetry, producing such collections as Chorus of the Newly Dead (1926) and The Labyrinth (1949). However, it was not until his Collected Poems appeared in 1952 that Muir achieved recognition. A visionary poet, he sought in his personal, often dreamlike verse to understand the meaning of the spiritual universe. Muir is also well known as a literary critic. Included among his critical writings are The Structure of the Novel The Present Age, from 1914 (1939), and Essays on Literature and Society (1949). His other works include translations of Kafka; three novels, The Marionette The Three Brothers (1931), and Poor Tom (1932); and an excellent autobiography, The Story and the Fable (1940), which later appeared in an enlarged edition

The following entry provides information on Muir's career from 1953 to 2000. A mid-twentieth century Scottish poet, Edwin Muir is also known for known for his literary criticism, his autobiography, and for translating, along with his wife, Willa Muir, the works of Franz Kafka into English. After establishing a career as a journalist, literary critic, and translator, in his mid-thirties Muir turned to writing poetry. Muir's mystical, visionary poetry did not resemble that of his Anglo-American modernist contemporaries. Informed by the Scottish ballads and incidents from his Orkney childhood, mythical, religious and psychological themes, and the work of Nietzsche and Kafka, Muir's poetry explored the struggle between good and evil, life and history as an existential journey, and the ways myth informs our individual and collective history. John Holloway considered Muir “the outstanding British love poet since Yeats.” T. S. Eliot declared that Muir “will remain among the poets who have added glory to the English language.”

    A biography (on the BBC s Writing Scotland pages).  
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/arts/writingscotland/learning_journeys/place/edwin
    
    Extractions: Biography Born on the Orkney island of Wyre in 1887, Edwin Muir spent his early years in the idyllic setting of his father's farm, 'The Bu', until increasing farm rents forced the family to move, first to Orkney's mainland and then, in 1901, to Glasgow. This move from the peaceful, agricultural setting of Orkney to industrialised Glasgow was extremely traumatic for Muir, and he would later describe it as a descent from the innocence of a rural Eden into Hell. Conditions in Glasgow were hard and, within a few years of their arrival, two of his brothers and both his parents were dead. The remaining siblings chose to go their separate ways and Muir found himself adrift in a large city with little education or prospects. From this background, Muir worked in a number of menial jobs and became increasingly interested in left-wing politics, as did many writers of the early-twentieth-century in Scotland. In 1916 he began contributing poetry to a magazine called New Age under the pseudonym 'Edward Moore', and his first book, a volume of short pithy essays on society, politics and the arts, entitled

    Robert Richman s biographical essay quotes from the autobiography and poetry of this 20th century Scottish poet.  
    http://newcriterion.com:81/archive/15/apr97/richman.htm
    
    Extractions: by Robert Richman I n his Autobiography First Poems was published in 1925, when Muir was thirty-eight. It had been preceded by a ten-year spell of odd jobs, unsettled opinions (Nietzsche, socialism), and unhappy love affairs. He had already produced a volume of aphoristic essays, We Moderns Selected Poems ouevre Autobiography The Estate of Poetry (1962), his last book of criticism, published posthumously, Muir expanded on this idea: Hugo von Hofmannsthal once said that true imagination is always conservative. By this he may have meant that it keeps intact the bond which unites us with the past of mankind, so that we can still understand Odysseus and Penelope, and the people of the Old Testament. Or he may have meant something more: that imagination is able to do this because it sees the life of everyone as the endless repetition of a single pattern. It is hard to explain how we enter into past lives if this is not done. We become human by repetition. . . . Every human being . . . will pass through the ancestral pattern, from birth to childhood and youth and manhood and age and death. He will feel hope and fear and love and hate and perhaps forgiveness.
