		Although David Gascoyne writes warmly of the darker aspects of T.S. Eliot's psyche, Eliot was in large to prove the prototype of the poet deserting his art for the sanctuary of an editor's desk.
		Gascoyne was not only set apart from the predominantly social concerns of British poetry in the 1930s, but from the main thrust of twentieth-century British poetry, with its attempts either to repress or sanitise the imagination.
		Gascoyne is one of the few who in every generation are prepared to sacrifice their lives in the interests of poetry.

		David Gascoyne, who has died aged 85, was that rarity among 20th-century English writers: a poet who sustained a fully European consciousness and enjoyed a wide European reputation.
		Gascoyne was also in at the foundation of that pioneering sociological survey, Mass-Observation, and remained close to one of its instigators, the painter Julian Trevelyan, as well as to the poet Kathleen Raine, then married to another another Mass-Ob chieftain, the poet Charles Madge.
		It was fitting that Gascoyne should, in October 1990, unveil the memorial in Madrid's Residencia de Estudiantes to the five British writers killed in the Spanish civil war.

	David Gascoyne: Confessional Novelist (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		David Gascoyne was a friend of Lawrence Durrell from their first meeting in Paris at 18 Villa Seurat in 1938.
		In his preface to Gascoyne's Paris Journal, 1937-1939 (1978), Durrell recalls the then twenty-two year-old writer as "a sort of Rimbaud of precocity" (5).
		I would like to rectify this oversight and honor David Gascoyne's more than sixty years as a published author by discussing Opening Day as a type of meditation on the novel as a confessional form and then by reflecting on it in the light of Gascoyne's major non-fiction, Journal, 1936-1937 and Paris Journal, 1936-1939.

		I’ve just read his Letter from an Unknown Woman, a novella which as Pushkin said is of distorted passion and “a rendition of the strengthened madness of love”, but many of their other titles are also worth getting hold of.
		Enitharmon publishes prose from time to time, apart from their admirable poetry list, and recently they’ve reprinted David Gascoyne’s A Short Survey of Surrealism, first published in 1935 and not to be missed if you haven’t read it.

		This thesis examines the historical interaction of the psychoanalyst, Jacques Lacan, the surrealist, Salvador Dali, and the English poet, David Gascoyne.
		It traces the discursive, and sometimes personal, relationship between these figures which led to a psychoanalytic-based conception of paranoia that impacted on both surrealism and the surrealist-inspired poetry and theory of David Gascoyne.
		Furthermore it seeks to identify the potential ramifications of this conception of paranoia, and the artistic practice it engendered, for literary, Marxist and psychoanalytic theory.

		Within a few weeks of David Gascoyne’s death in November 2001, Jeremy Reed had written this moving and highly charged elegy for his friend.
		It pictures the dapper, insomniac Gascoyne in his Hampstead sanctuary during the Blitz, producing visionary poetry while he ‘saw London burn / in a heat-flashed, war-time apocalypse.’ The timescale changes to the 1980s, when Gascoyne’s work was being rediscovered and his kinship with the young Reed was growing.
		The text is set in Perpetua by Alan Anderson and hand-printed by him at the Tragara Press on Teton paper, sewn into marbled wrappers.
