Dr. Kathleen Raine, born in 1908, is internationally recognised as one of the outstanding living English poets and literary scholars. She is particularly renowned for her books on William Blake and W. B. Yeats, and has written with great insight on many other poets, artists and philosophers, among them David Gascoyne, David Jones and Thomas Taylor the Platonist. She was awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry in 1992. In 1980 she was a co-founder of the review Temenos and in 1990 founded the Temenos Academy in London.   Miss Raine is editor of Temenos Academy Review. She has won many literary awards including the Harriet Monroe Prize and the Edna St. Vincent Millay Prize from the American Poetry Society.   Of Kathleen Raine's first Collected Poems (1956) Edwin Muir wrote: "Her poetry is outside all the modern categories; it is pure as from a well-spring, and has a fresh natural beauty undecorated and undefaced by influence. We are fortunate that we should have it, and this book should be read again and again."
