Mystery

Penguin??Books

The title of this collection implies more than the inability to provide a title: these are 'new' poems also in the sense that they take a different line from that pursued by the final section of Roy Fuller's previous two collections. Theses poems do not use the virtuosity with rhyme and traditional forms that for some time have been a feature of his style: there are no rhymed poems at all and many are in syllabic metres. Though this procedure leads to a greater freedom of rhythym and thought, it does not lack technical interest and  control, and results in the book having a unity.

Murder in Mind

Academy Chicago Pub

'Geddes was incontestably a man of great learning and independence of mind and his work as a pioneer of modern biblical scholarship is one of the greatest historical importance' (J.G. Macgregor). Yet the work of this eighteenth-century scholar is largely unknown today, though his name is often linked with the 'fragment hypothesis' of Pentateuchal composition which he initiated and which was developed by Vater. But perhaps his most significant contribution is in the field of mythology at the moment when J.G. Eichhorn was himself engaged in this development. Making full use of contemporary sources, and drawing upon hitherto unpublished material, Dr Fuller has now written the first full-scale study of this remarkable man who with courage, not unmixed with rashness, stood almost alone in his endeavours to introduce principles of literary and historical criticism into Bible study in Britain.

Biographies & Memoirs

Sheffield Academic Pr Ltd

<p>From his first wartime collection evoking a generation’s experience of a country made strange by blackouts and air raids to the consolatory wisdom of poems written later in his life, Great Britain’s Roy Fuller was a poet of the familiar and ordinary made extraordinary. Mundane details, observed with the author’s tolerant humor and acute eye, reveal depths and dissonances from which a civilized life may be created. On the centenary of Fuller’s birth, this generous selection—introduced by the poet’s son and including an afterword by Neil Powell, Fuller’s biographer—brings to a new generation of readers the work of one of the essential poets of the 20th century.</p>
