Famous People's Dreams Poet Rupert Brooke About the dreams of the famous poet Rupert Brooke and his gardens of Heaven. DREAMLAND Well-Known Persons Record Their Dreams Rupert Brooke (1887-1915): The Gardens of Heaven I once dreamt that I was in the Gardens of Heaven walking between great odorous beds of helichryse and asphodel. Turning a corner I met the present headmaster of Rugby School in his shirt-sleeves. He was digging up all the beautiful flowers. I hit him severely on the nose, and asked him what he was doing. He said he was uprooting the useless flowers and planting vegetables for food instead. I told him that in Heaven one subsisted entirely on beautiful thoughts. He replied that he would starve; and continued to dig, muttering. He began to swell as I gazed, and, still grunting, "Cabbages and onions," grew so big that he blotted out the sky.

The Dead More Poems by Brooke Biography For one whom Yeats proclaimed "the handsomest young man in England," Rupert Brooke has not aged well. The neo-Romanticism of Brooke and the Georgian Poets was one of the casualties of The Great War. Paul Fussell (in The Great War and Modern Memory ) sees irony as one of the by-products of the First World War, and one of the many ironies of the war is that Rupert Brooke is remembered as a war poet at all, because he is actually not a war poet not in the same sense that Siegfried Sassoon , Robert Graves and Wilfred Owen are war poets. Rupert Brooke is rather a pre-war poet. To borrow Blake's contrast, Brooke wrote Songs of Innocence Songs of Experience Brooke's entire reputation as a war poet rests on only 5 "war sonnets" (6 if you count " Treasure " unnumbered in his short sonnet cycle). Brooke's war experience consisted of one day of limited military action with the Hood Battalion during the evacuation of Antwerp. Consequently, his "war sonnets" swell with sentiments of the most general kind on the themes of maturity, purpose and romantic death the kind of sentiments held by many (but not all) young Englishmen at the outbreak of the war. Brooke's "war sonnets" are really more a declaration occasioned by the ups and downs of his tumultuous personal life than a call to war for his generation.

Rupert Brooke (1887 - 1915) If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is for ever England. The Soldier A gifted and handsome man, Brooke's early death in World War One contributed to his idealized image in the interwar period. After leaving Cambridge, Brooke studied in Germany and travelled in Italy, but his favourite pastime was rambling in the countryside around the village of Grantchester, which he celebrated in his poem, 'The Old Vicarage, Grantchester' (1912). This piece was typical of the 'Georgian' school of poetry, practised before war broke out by poets including Hilaire Belloc, Robert Graves, Walter de la Mare and Siegfried Sassoon. This poetry was lyrical, taking its inspiration from nature and the countryside, and is now generally disregarded as lifeless and conventional. Brooke's poems were published in 1911, and after a year wandering in the North America and the South Seas, he was commissioned into the Royal Navy. After taking part in a disastrous expedition to Antwerp, he sailed for the Dardanelles. He never reached them, dying of septicaemia on a hospital ship off Skyros, where he was buried in an olive grove.

The British forces were soon overrun, and Brooke experienced a marching retreat through devastated landscape before arriving safely in Bruges. This was Brooke's only experience of combat. He returned to Britain awaiting redeployment and, during the next few weeks of training and preparation, Rupert caught flu, the first in a series of wartime illnesses. More importantly for his historical reputation, Brooke also wrote five poems which were to establish him among the cannon of First World War writers, the 'War Sonnets': ' Peace Safety The Dead ', a second '

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. 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
