An important anthology, the first compiled of Hopkins' poems, published 29 years after his death. The editor, Robert Bridges, was a friend of Hopkins and it was his position as Poet Laureate that enabled him to bring Hopkins' poems to the fore with this anthology. 750 copies were printed and it took ten years for them to sell but by then Hopkins' technical innovations and modernist style, years ahead of his time, had been recognised and another edition was published in 1930. Hopkins died, aged 44, whilst serving as a priest in Dublin and is buried in the Glasnevin Cemetery.
