Updated - Saturday, 11 August, 2001 Walter de la Mare (1873-1956), poet, author, editor and critic, was born on 25 April 1873 in Charlton, Kent and was educated at St. Paul’s Cathedral Choristers’ School until age 16. From 1890 until 1908 he worked for the Anglo-American Oil Company within its statistics department. He published a collection of poetry – Songs of Childhood (1902) – under a pseudonym, Walter Ramal. This was followed by novels, stories, children’s books and several brilliant anthologies, including the novel Memoirs of a Midget (1921) which detailed the often bizarre experiences of the minute Miss Thomasina. Although de la Mare is often considered a children’s author he is famed also for his supernatural collections, including The Connoisseur and Other Stories On the Edge The Riddle and Other Tales , and the novel The Return . During the First World War he wrote a series of patriotic poems. De la Mare’s reputation however was established by The Listener and Other Poems , published in 1912.

Walter De La Mare Stories from the Bible Introduction "Very old are we men: Our dreams are tales Told in dim Eden By Eve's nightingales." ("All That's Past") Walter de la Mare was born in 1873 and brought up in an affluent family in Kent. He attended St Paul's School in London. His mother was related to the famous Victorian poet Robert Browning. At the age of sixteen, he left St Paul's to take up a career in accountancy with the Anglo-American Oil Company. During the years he spent in the service of that company (1880-1908), he began to write and continued to do so prolifically throughout his life. He is well known for his poetry, but also wrote prose fiction and non-fiction. Many of his works were written for children. His first publication outside contributions to magazines, Songs of Childhood (1902), was published under the name Walter Ramal to little acclaim. It was only under his real name and in 1912 with The Listeners that he found success. However, in 1908, de la Mare was awarded a government pension of £100 per year and so took up writing full time at Taplow in Buckinghamshire. His distinctive prose works include the prose romance Henry Brocken (1904) where his hero encounters writers from the past, and the ghostly story

Multipart Surnames Compound Surnames Multipart Surnames Complex Surnames Sometimes personal names involve more than a single surname. They may include compound surnames, multipart surnames and combinations of these. Cross-references are usually made from each part of the surname. Examples of each type are listed below. Note that USMARC has recently discontinued the use of the second indicator for use with multipart and complex surnames as described below. The Library of Congress only began using the new coding in January 2000. Queen's will synchronize it's practice with LC When using the new coding, please ensure that each record is internally consistent . In other words, when you use the new code in one field in a record, please make sure that you use the new code throughout the same record. In addition, please be aware that the CLARR utility checks for consistency with the indicators as well as the actual heading; if you intend to use CLARR to check a bibliographic record, you should probably do so before updating the coding.

Dabei versuchte der Autor, mit Hilfe einer lyrischen Sprache in traumhafte Grenzbereiche vorzudringen. Unter anderem schrieb De la Mare die Gedichtsammlungen "Songs of Childhood" "The Listeners and Other Poems" (1912) und "O Lovely England (1953), das phantastische Langgedicht "The Traveller" (1946), die Romane "Henry Brocken" "The Return" (1910) und "Memoirs of a Midget" "Memoiren der Miss M." ) sowie "Collected Tales" (1949).

Back To Contents Page Stories Primarily For Children Prose Texts "The world Walter de la Mare fixed in his gaze at once veiled and half-disclosed a realm beyond sense and time. The meaning and the reality of things lie off-centre, off stage. What delights and moves him, what mystifies and disturbs him, derives its beauty and power from the unseen and the unknown. [...] De la Mare has the power to penetrate the surface of things and leave the reader dissatisfied with the opacity of a world seen by less piecing eyes." H. Blamires Walter de la Mare (1873-1956) has always been best known for his poetry, but for many people, W H Auden and Graham Greene included, his prose merits comparison with the richness of Henry James and Robert Louis Stevenson. Moreover, Angela Carter notes the resemblance that de la Mare's stories have to the vivid and unsettling intensity of the French Surrealists. Over the years his work has influenced writers from W H Auden and William Golding to Russell Hoban and Richard Adams. Henry Brocken The Return (1910) and Memoirs of a Midget (1921) are de la Mare's three full-length novels. The main short stories collections from those listed below are
