Dylan Thomas
1946
Introduction
Dylan Thomas has been a controversial poet since his first poems appeared in 1933. His work is not easily categorized. He has been variously described as a surrealist, a primitive, a Welsh bard, a metaphysical poet, a dadaist; the list is extensive. Perhaps the term most frequently attached to Thomas is twentieth-century Romantic.
Thomas’s poetry is usually divided into three stages. In the first period, his poems are complex and often obscure, centering on the cycle of birth and death. The poems from the second period, written primarily during the years of World War II, take on a more human and personalized dimension, and include such works as Ceremony After a Fire Raid
and the elegy A Refusal to Mourn the Death, by Fire, of a Child in London.
