Situated on the cusp of the Romantic era, Thomas Gray's work is a mixture of impersonal Augustan abstraction and intense subjectivity. ‘Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard' is one of the most famous poems in the English language, and continues to exert its influence on contemporary poetry. Mark and Seamus explore three of Gray's elegiac poems and their peculiar emotional power. They discuss Gray's ambiguous sexuality, his procrastination and class anxieties, and where his humour shines through – as in his elegy for Horace Walpole's cat.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from this episode.

Fancy going for a spin with us? ‘Cos we're about to head off in this ole, beat up Cadillac. Laura Barton is at the wheel and she's got the windows down and the radio up.

Snuggle up comfortably as you join us on the NB Erica for a wild night and day as we ride the storms Dudley and Eunice. The poems of Ted Hughes, Louis MacNeice, A.A. Milne, William Blake, and John Betjeman keep us company as they take us through a day of roaring wind and rattling rain-squalls.   Please note, the audio for this episode has been intentionally kept ‘dirty' to capture the ambient sounds of a storm as experienced on a narrowboat and so any bangs, clicks, clunks, and other background noises are entirely deliberate!Journal entry:“16th February, Wednesday.21:15Storm Dudley batters the boat,  The world roars and shakes with a crashing frenzy of noise Like bed linen whipping and cracking on a gale-harried washing line. Curtains of rain laced with twigs sluice against the windows.It is a night for wild souls who can match this night, storm for storm, And who run as free as starlight and hawthorn blossom.”Episode Information:In this episode I read the following poems (see episode chapters for time locations):Ted Hughes: ‘Wind' from his first collection Hawk in the Rain (1957) published by Faber and Faber.Louis MacNeice: ‘House on a cliff' from his collection Blind Fireworks (1929) subsequently published in collections by Faber and Faber.A.A. Milne: ‘The wind on the hill' from his Now We are Six (1927) now published by Egmont (2009). William Blake: ‘Mock on. mock on, Voltaire and Rousseau' (1796)John Betjeman: ‘Harrow on the Hill' (1949) published first in A Few Late Chrysanthemums (1953) by in various later collections and anthologies like The Best of Betjeman (1978) published by Penguin Books.  General DetailsIn the intro and the outro, Saint-Saen's The Swan is performed by Karr and Bernstein (1961) and available on CC at archive.org.

Our thirty-ninth tree, Alder (Alnus glutinosa). A tree designed for water; as strong as steel when submerged, alder timber has been keeping Venice from sinking for centuries. In the wild, our Alder provides homes for otters within its exposed root systems and can be found carpeted in the most verdant of mossy carpets. But more important than that, in cahoots with a bacterium, Alder fills our waterlogged and swampy soils with life-building nitrogen. This week's episode was recorded with our host's wellie-clad feet dangling in the Beaulieu river, in the heart of the New Forest. (Special thanks to Natalie Dormer for adding her voice to the Betjeman in this week's episode, and to Hodder & Stoughton for giving us permission to do so.)

A rollicking romp.  The honor of Birmingham is at stake, but  shared nobility of character will prevail.  This episode is a two-fer:   as well as the poem itself, you get a singalong of a song referenced in one of  the stanzas ( The Warwickshire Lads, if that sounds enticing).  I'm reading all the poems in the collection "RailwayRhymes" edited by Peter Ashley and available here   if you want to read along.  Here are all the podcast episodes from this series: https://www.zenglop.net/zenglop/poems-about-trains/

The panel bridges McGonagall's Railway Bridge of the Silvery Tay to a discussion of twentieth-century poet laureate John Betjeman, who had an abiding fascination for railway buildings both architecturally and as a connecting point for human experiences.

Sir John Betjeman (1906-1984) One of the most popular English language poets of the twentieth century. His collected poems sold over two million copies. One of the nastier assumptions about modern poetry is that it's not possible to be popular and good. Great poets have five readers and an academic following. Popular poets have either no talent or have prostituted themselves to find an audience. As an assumption it's both nasty and dangerous. Betjeman was popular and good. Some of his poems, like this one, seemed to be set in a world that wasn't on the same planet as mine. His excellence is technical. No modernist pyrotechnics, just a deft handling of the formal aspects of rhyming verse. His autobiography, ‘Summoned by Bells' written in blank verse, is one of the better long poems of the century. The first line of this poem has been stuck in my head since I read it in a high school text book.
