Housman, A.E.

A. E. Housman (1859-1936) fue uno de los grandes poetas menores de la lírica inglesa del siglo XX. Autor de sólo dos libros publicados en vida, A Shropshire Lady y Last Poems, a los que se añadió un tercero póstumo, More Poems, su personalidad huidiza y huraña no impidió que se convirtiera en una influencia reconocida por algunos de los más célebres poetas ingleses como Auden. Fue catedrático de Latín de la Universidad de Cambridge. En 1933 dio forma a su poética en una conferencia titulada «The Name and Nature of Poetry». Juan Bonilla (Jerez, 1966) ha traducido Las horas detenidas de Ramón Solana, (Pre-Textos, 1999), Infancia de J. M. Coetzee (Mondadori, 2002) y Melville de Andrea Delbanco (Seix-Barral, 2006).
