A Shropshire Lad (1896) is a cycle of sixty-three poems by the English poet Alfred Edward Housman. A Shropshire Lad was first published in 1896 at Housmans own expense after several publishers had turned it down much to the surprise of his colleagues & students. At first the book sold slowly but during the Second Boer War Housmans nostalgic depiction of rural life & young mens early deaths struck a chord with English readers & the book became a bestseller. Later World War I further increased its popularity. Alfred Edward Housman (26 March 1859
- 30 April 1936) usually known as A. E. Housman was an English classical scholar & poet best known for his cycle of poems A Shropshire Lad. Lyrical & almost epigrammatic in form the poems were mostly written before 1900. Their wistful evocation of doomed youth in the English countryside in spare language & distinctive imagery appealed strongly to late Victorian Edwardian & Georgian taste & to many early twentieth century English composers (beginning with Arthur Somervell) both before & after the First World War. Through its song-setting the poetry became closely associated with that era & with Shropshire itself. Housman was counted one of the foremost classicists of his age & has been ranked as one of the greatest scholars of all time. He established his reputation publishing as a private scholar & on the strength & quality of his work was appointed Professor of Latin at UCL & later at Cambridge. His editions of Juvenal Manilius & Lucan are still considered authoritative.
