      The Poetry

      INTRODUCTION TO IBSEN’S POETRY by Fydell Edmund Garrett

      IT was early in his professional career as a statesman-journalist that Garrett fell under the spell of Ibsen. His health was already undermined, but his amazing energy and power of rapid work remained; and the translation of Brand, on which he was long more or less at work, was actually accomplished with almost incredible rapidity in the year 1894. Many passages were marked for revision in his own copy, but only a relatively small number of corrections or improvements were actually made in manuscript. They have all been embodied in this re-issue. In 1895 he went to South Africa as editor of the Cape Times, but was compelled to return in 1899 with wrecked health. As soon as he was able to do anything, he gave such strength as he had to South Africa, where his main interest centred to the end of his life, but Ibsen still retained his hold on him, and he amused some of the many hours in which speaking or moving meant instant danger by pencilling tentative translations between the lines and on the margins of his copy of Ibsen’s Digte. As these translations were gradually elaborated he sent many of them, one by one, to the Westminster Gazette, where they appeared, from May to September, in 1903. Others he dictated in their provisionally completed form to Mrs. Garrett, but never published; and some were left to be picked out with more or less security from the various suggested renderings of the manuscript notes. In two instances, only, the editors have had to supply or modify a word or two on their own responsibility. Had Garrett lived he might have further modified any or all of his versions, for some of those already printed were revised and improved from time to time in manuscript. All these Poems are now collected and arranged in the first section of this volume. In every case a note is added to explain the condition
