 Robert Bloomfield
Robert Bloomfield (December 3, 1766 - August 19, 1823), English poet, was born of humble parents at the village of Honington, Suffolk.
He was apprenticed at the age of eleven to a farmer, but he was too small and frail for field labour, and four years later he came to London to work for a shoemaker.
His reputation was increased by the appearance of his Rural Tales (1802), News from the Farm (1804), Wild Flowers (1806) and The Banks of the Wye (1811).

 Cercles book reviews Angel Bloomfield Walker Ballyn
Bloomfield describes his poetry as “[…] a blend of nostalgia, surrealism and postmodern literary theory in practice…and I acknowledge the textual and intellectual influences of Tom Raworth, André Breton, Dylan Thomas and Stéphane Mallarmé.” [28] That in itself serves well to define his collection.
Bloomfield is not afraid of challenges as a poet, using the villanelle with extraordinary ease, nor is he afraid to challenge his readers by offering verse which at first can seem deliberately obscure.
Bloomfield’s ability to play on words in such a way as to add layers of meaning to a poem comes clear in “new fragments of the past” in which the persona is depicted as “[…] divided/ i face my remains”.

Bloomfield credits two doctors- Dr. Bernard Lown, a Nobel-winning cardiologist who runs a clinic in Massachusetts, and Dr. Eugene Stead, a renowned educator at Duke University, who died in June at the age of 97 - with helping him develop his philosophy of medicine.
Bloomfield left the medical school in 1996 and worked with Smart Start - a state program designed to help children who need a boost before entering kindergarten - doing research related to vaccinations before going into private practice.
Bloomfield remembers being angry after the hemorrhagic stroke that caused bleeding in the brain, which interrupted circulation in the central nervous system.

 Robert Bloomfield, [from] The Farmer’s Boy (1800)
Robert Bloomfield (1766-1823) was the son of a poor tailor in the small Suffolk village of Honington.
However, for Bloomfield the importance of this description of an idyllic community is that it is threatened, as his own rural world has been threatened, by its contact with commercial culture.
Bloomfield describes the social distance farmers sought to create from their labourers by means of physical distance (the separate table) and distinct manners (the rejection of common ale and the shared vessel from which it was drunk).

Nor is there quite so much dissimilarity between the poetic value of their work, if the poems of Clare published during his lifetime be taken alone, as readers of the high, and not ill-deserved, praise sometimes bestowed on the younger poet might expect.
Charles Lamb, who never went wrong without good cause, and who, on no occasion, was an unamiably “superior” critic, thought that Bloomfield had “a poor mind,” and there is certainly nothing in his work to indicate that it was a rich one, poetically speaking.
As was certain to be the case in 1820, as compared with 1800, the stock couplet versification and diction of the eighteenth century are replaced by varied metres, a more natural vocabulary, and a general attempt at lyrical quality.
