Edward Thomas

    3. März 1878 – 9. April 1917

    Philip Edward Thomas war ein walisisch-englischer Schriftsteller, der Prosa und Lyrik verfasste und allgemein als Kriegslyriker gilt, obwohl sich nur wenige seiner Werke direkt mit seinen Kriegserlebnissen auseinandersetzen. Bereits ein anerkannter Prosaautor, wandte er sich 1914 der Poesie zu. Sein Schreiben zeichnet sich durch eine tiefe Beschäftigung mit der englischen Landschaft und ihrem ländlichen Leben aus, oft mit einem Hauch von Melancholie. Sein einzigartiger Stil fängt die Vergänglichkeit von Momenten und die stille Schönheit des Alltäglichen ein.
