	Laurence Binyon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Laurence Robert Binyon (August 10, 1869 Lancaster, England – March 10, 1943) was a British poet and scholar.
		Educated at St Paul's School and Trinity College, Oxford, he was already writing poetry by 1890, and won the Newdigate Prize for one poem whilst still at Oxford.
		Between 1933 and 1943, Binyon published a translation of Dante's Divina commedia in an English version of terza rima.

	Pushkin: A Biography by T. J. Binyon, ISBN 1400041104 And A Devil of a Whipping: The Battle of Cowpens by Lawrence E. ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Discusses the Russian poet's birth in 1799 Moscow, survival of Napoleon's invasion and other military conflicts, scrutiny and censure for his satirical writings and personal beliefs, most significant literary achievements, and death during a duel in 1837.
		The battle of Cowpens was a crucial turning point in the Revolutionary War in the South and stands as perhaps the finest American tactical demonstration of the entire war.
		Whereas previous accounts relied on often inaccurate histories and a small sampling of participant narratives, Babits uses veterans' sworn pension statements, long-forgotten published accounts, and a thorough knowledge of weaponry, tactics, and the art of moving men across the landscape.

	Warring States Sinology \| Arthur Waley
		He traveled on the Continent while recuperating, first to Norway, where he and Hubert did some skiing, and later to Seville, there being some thought in the family that he should enter the export firm of his uncle Montefiore, whose business was chiefly with South America.
		The postwar Twenties quickly developed into the age of Joyce, Eliot, and Pound; of T E Lawrence, Wyndham Lewis, and Lytton Strachey; of the Bloomsbury group.
		Eric K is very shy, but he is a delightful man. Eric brought Lawrence's £30 book The Seven Pillars to show me. It is not very good book-making; very fine illustrations in it, many of them coloured, and lots of lovely drawings by Roberts.

	Elgar - His Music : King Arthur Suite
		Elgar first became friendly with Lawrence Binyon, the celebrated British First World War poet, through his setting of three of Binyon's poems as The Spirit of England, Elgar's last cantata first performed in 1917.
		When, towards the end of 1922, Binyon was commissioned by London's Old Vic theatre to write a play on the life of King Arthur, Binyon turned to Elgar to provide incidental music for the play.
		Elgar responded somewhat reluctantly, claiming that since Alice's death in 1920 his ability to compose had also died.

	Aftermath NewsClips: Volunteers are sought to adopt a grave
		Note: there is an odd little debate which surfaces every year in Australia following Anzac and Remembrance Day about whether the last word of the second line of the fourth stanza should be "condemn" or "contemn".
		Since Binyon himself corrected the proofs of the collection in which the poem, first published in the Times, eventually appeared, there seems no doubt that he meant to use "condemn".
		Over the years I've had emails from Australians who believe I should change it to "contemn" but I've been unable to find any evidence at all which would make me consider that.
