	R S Thomas, ogre of Wales - Telegraph
		In his immersion in 'the Welshness of his imagination' Thomas was the precise opposite of Roy Jenkins (referred to by Rogers as 'the most accomplished piece of social engineering since Frankenstein's monster', and a man whose Welshness was ultimately betrayed only his pronunciation of the word 'situation').
		Thomas was reacting against the dilution of Welshness, and possibly also against his mother, whom he didn't like, preferring his father, who was a sailor, therefore easily romanticised.
		To Rogers, a Welshman himself, Thomas was 'the finest lyric poet of my time', but there is a fine tension in his portrait of Thomas the man. We have plenty of evidence of his rudeness and egocentricity, but there were outbursts of kindness… and the flintiest sort of humour.

	Guardian \| R S Thomas
		So Thomas Hardy, in old age, sent up a smokescreen against future biographers by guardedly writing an autobiography, which he then got his wife to publish after his death under her own name.
		To adapt what someone said of de Gaulle, Thomas had one illusion, Wales, and one hate, the Welsh, who had been born into a tradition they neglected, and which he, like a tramp at Christmas, was doomed to stand outside.
		Thomas was 42 when Rupert Hart-Davis brought out Song At The Year's Turning, before which there had been just one book, printed at his own expense, and a few poems in magazines.

		Ronald Stuart Thomas was one of the most extraordinary literary figures of the twentieth century.
		This biography—written by a native speaker of Welsh, who, as a student, first met Thomas in 1960, when the poet’s fame was only recent—is of precisely the right length: the reader does not have to set aside too great a proportion of his own life, or abandon all other pursuits, to read it.

	Passing Through Hard Facts: The Poetry of R.S. Thomas
		Thomas has described his own delight in wandering among the rocks and along the hills, watching the birds and observing the natural spaces within and against which his fellow citizens have pried out their livelihood.
		Thomas recognizes that there is more comfort in firmer, more intelligible readings of the world, and he refuses to dismiss the value of cultural religion and its explanations.
		The prayer of patience is always answered, Thomas says simply because it is at one with the unruffled surface of what is. Where Christ has specificity in his poems, it is at the end of a long process of encountering the hard and unnuanced substance of the world’s surrounding.

		Thomas was alienated from much of Welsh country life by his status as a priest in the Church in Wales.
		Having retired from the priesthood of the Church in Wales at Easter 1978, R. Thomas went to live at Y Rhiw, near Aberdaron.
		The poems are grouped under traditional headings (bc, Incarnation, Crucifixion, ad) that are, however, interpreted in startlingly heterodox ways, as Thomas explores his customary themes, including, most prominently, the malevolence of manipulative technology (represented by his old adversary ‘the Machine’).
