Topic: Lord De Tabley


  
  John Byrne Leicester Warren, 3d baron de Tabley - LoveToKnow 1911
JOHN BYRNE LEICESTER WARREN, 3RD DE TABLEY Baron (1835-1895), English poet, eldest son of George Fleming Leicester (afterwards Warren), 2nd Baron De Tabley, was born on the 26thof April 1835.
De Tabley's first impulse towards poetry came from his friend George Fortescue, with whom he shared a close companionship during his Oxford days, and whom he lost, as Tennyson lost Hallam, within a few years of their taking their degrees.
The characteristics of De Tabley's poetry are pre-eminently magnificence of style, derived from close study of Milton, sonority, dignity, weight and colour.

 John Byrne Leicester Warren, 3rd Baron De Tabley Summary
Lord De Tabley was a classicist, numismatist, bibliophile, and botanist of distinction, whose poetry, though never widely read, was held in high regard by his fellow poets.
Born at Tabley House, near Knutsford, Cheshire, John Byrne Leicester Warren (his name till he succeeded to the peerage) was the eldest son to survive infancy of George Fleming Leicester (later Warren), the second Lord De Tabley.
De Tabley's involvement in these activities was considerable and productive: from 1859 to 1870 he produced at least fifteen published works--eight volumes of verse, two metrical dramas, two novels, and several monographs on early Greek and Byzantine coins.

De Tably is too fine a poet to be relegated to limbo - his range is remarkably wide (witness the lyric beauty of The Pilgrim Cranes and the horrific detail of the Study of a Spider - but, alas, he is remembered only in anthologies.
Both of these cycles are finely written settings of poems for which the composer had a special affection, and they are sung by the artists to whom they were dedicated.
