Extractions: David Gascoyne's persistent use of amphetamenes had resulted in a severe stomach ulcer, three nervous breakdowns and several imposed stays in mental institutions over three decades. He came to live on the Isle of Wight during the early 1960s to be with his parents. The noted Surrealist poet and author of A Short Study of Surrealism (1935) was a patient of Whitecroft Hospital on the Isle of Wight when Judy Lewis read one of his poems to the patients. Marriage to Judy Lewis revitalised his spirit and he undertook readings in Paris, Belgium, Italy, Amsterdam, Iceland, Corfu and San Francisco. David Gascoyne has since been honoured by the French Government and made a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. Judy Gascoyne was housekeeper for Bob Dylan at Forelands Farm in August 1969.

Extractions: David Gascoyne was born in 1916 in Harrow, Middlesex, and educated at Salisbury Cathedral School and the Regent Street Polytechnic, London. His first collection of poetry, Roman Balcony and Other Poems was published when he was sixteen, and in 1933 Cobden-Sanderson brought out his novel Opening Day . Both books are remarkable achievements for an adolescent, and they were followed by the equally striking poetry collections Man's Life Is This Meat (1936) and Hoelderlin's Madness (1938), which established his reputation as one of the most original voices of the 1930s. Gascoyne was among the earliest champions of Surrealism: in 1935 his A Short Survey of Surrealism was published, and in the next year he was one of the organisers of the London International Surrealist Exhibition. From this period, and during his time living in France in 1937-39, date his friendships with Dali, Max Ernst, Andre Breton, Paul Eluard and Pierre Jean Jouve. As well as becoming internationally celebrated as a poet - especially after publication of his Poems 1937-1942 , with its Graham Sutherland images - Gascoyne became highly regarded as a translator, notably of Hoelderlin and of the leading French Surrealists.

Extractions: The Guardian David Gascoyne, who has died aged 85, was that rarity among 20th-century English writers: a poet who sustained a fully European consciousness and enjoyed a wide European reputation. The last survivor of the neo-romantic group of poets, who included Dylan Thomas, WS Graham and George Barker, he achieved early importance and fame as Britain's first serious advocate of surrealism as a mode of writing poems and painting - he remained more or less loyal to the surrealistic vision all his life. Born in Harrow, the son of a bank manager, Gascoyne was educated at Salisbury cathedral choir school - where he absorbed something of the religiosity that became an aspect of his writing - and the Regent Street Polytechnic. He was extraordinarily ambitious and precocious; his first volume of poems, Roman Balcony, appeared in 1932, while he was still a schoolboy, and his only novel, Opening Day, was published the following year. Much of it is the story of an aesthetic youth, like himself, falling out with a father who does not care for his son's cultural pursuits. In 1936, his surrealistic verse collection Man's Life Is This Meat was published by the Parton Street Press. In the Parton Street cafe, he mixed with teenage radicals brought on by the publisher David Archer, a feisty group including Esmond Romilly and Philip Toynbee. His closest friend was George Barker.

Brief Biography Of David Gascoyne, British Poet (1916-2001)
gascoyne, david (Emery) Born Oct. 10, 1916, Harrow, Middlesex, England. Died Nov. 25, 2001, Isle of Wight. English poet deeply influenced by the French Surrealist movement of the 1930s.

Extractions: Gascoyne, David (Emery) Born Oct. 10, 1916, Harrow, Middlesex, England. Died Nov. 25, 2001, Isle of Wight. English poet deeply influenced by the French Surrealist movement of the 1930s. Gascoyne's first book of poems, Roman Balcony , appeared in 1932, and his only novel, Opening Day , the next year. His important introductory work, A Short Survey of Surrealism (1935), and his verses Man's Life Is This Meat (1936) were milestones of the movement in England. Poems 1937-42 (1943) marked the beginning of his religious verse and contains his noted good-bye to the '30s - his "Farewell Chorus." Night Thoughts , a long, semidramatic poem, was broadcast in 1955 and published the next year. Gascoyne's early poetry bears the Surrealist impress boldly, and through his translations and critical writings he did much to make the movement known in Britain. He was less interested in Surrealism's exploration of the subconscious than in its exploitation of visionary and mystical elements. Thus, when he abandoned Surrealism as an aesthetic guide at the end of the 1930s, it was only a short step to the powerful religious poetry of his later years. Gascoyne's Collected Poems appeared in 1965. His

Poet's Day 1997
National Poetry Day 1997, in honour david gascoyne's 81st birthday.
http://www.iowrock.demon.co.uk/clearspot/gascoyne.html

Extractions: Quay Arts Centre, Newport, Isle of Wight Judy Gascoyne's welcome pops the evening open like a Champagne cork. She notes that poetry in this new theatre is better suited than those "Unfortunate settings like pubs in a room next to the juke box". The Quay Arts Centre has refurbished an old quayside warehouse into a gleaming new theatre with money from the National Lottery. Judy's opening speech comes like the swing of a champagne bottle against a ship's bow. Opens the theatre, opens the evening, introduces a line of England's great poets. David Gascoyne is wheeled in front of the audience. He is a day short of his 81st birthday. This is an extremely rare public occasion for him. Perhaps his first reading in a decade. David Gascoyne's appearance has drawn me here tonight. I might not have ventured out for the other poets such is my unfamiliarity with them or their material. Their readings tonight made me glad I came. Once again I am gaining my education away from the bookshelf. From the poet's mouth so to speak. David Gascoyne gives a fine introduction to Ian Sinclair's work making particular reference to his poetry about London's East End. Sinclair is a tall, balding, authoritative guy who speaks in an assured tone. His London poems speak of "Ox blood mixed with methadone", the first indication that tonight's works will be less concerned with Byronic sonnets more with the dark end of the street.
