Excerpt from Canadian Poems of the Great War More and more are the poets realizing that the quality of beauty is universal; and hence that there is nothing in this subjective-objective world, outside the pale of artistic expression. More and more are they seeking themes of intense human interest, and striving for climaxes of spiritual beauty. To me, the spirit and content of an inspired poem is potential form; and in its natural verbal expression, of necessity organic. The inspiration shapes and perfects the form. This is why I regard the actual form as only, at most, equal in importance to what is expressed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

For Canadians, the First World War was a dynamic period of literary activity. Almost every poet wrote about the war, critics made bold predictions about the legacy of the period’s poetry, and booksellers were told it was their duty to stock shelves with war poetry. Readers bought thousands of volumes of poetry. Twenty years later, by the time Canada went to war again, no one remembered any of it. Battle Lines traces the rise and disappearance of Canadian First World War poetry, and offers a striking and comprehensive account of its varied and vexing poetic gestures. As eagerly as Canadians took to the streets to express their support for the war, poets turned to their notebooks, and shared their interpretations of the global conflict, repeating and reshaping popular notions of, among others, national obligation, gendered responsibility, aesthetic power, and deathly presence. The book focuses on the poetic interpretations of the Canadian soldier. He emerges as a contentious poetic subject, a figure of battle romance, and an emblem of modernist fragmentation and fractiousness. Centring the work of five exemplary Canadian war poets (Helena Coleman, John McCrae, Robert Service, Frank Prewett, and W.W.E. Ross), the book reveals their latent faith in collective action as well as conflicting recognition of modernist subjectivities. Battle Lines identifies the Great War as a long-overlooked period of poetic ferment, experimentation, reluctance, and challenge.

“In Flanders Fields,” the iconic poem which gives its title to this collection of poems and selected prose, is one of Canada’s — and the world’s — best known poems of the Great War. It was written in 1915 by Canadian John McCrae, an artillery man, poet, and medical doctor, upon the death of a friend and fellow soldier during the Second Battle of Ypres in 1915. This is a faithful reissue of the Canadian first edition of McCrae’s writings, originally issued by his friends in 1919 in his honour and memory. It includes the best of his poetry and selections of his letters from the front lines together with a thoughtful essay of appreciation by his friend and fellow medical officer, Sir Andrew Macphail.

One of the 60,000 Canadians who did not return from the First World War, Bernard Trotter's poignant poems were published after his death. His letters home revealed idealism spirit of dedication which led him to volunteer and also showbiz family in Canada, deeply engaged, albeit from a distance, and the faraway conflict. In the fall of 1915, the British war office, contacted the University of Toronto for help in recruiting students for the officer corps of the British Imperial Army. One of the 50 young men who answered the call to service was Bernard Freeman Trotter, a 25-year-old graduate of McMaster University was just beginning advanced studies at the University of Toronto. He left his studies and his family in Toronto in March 1916, and before the year was out, Trotter had successfully completed his training with both the Canadian and British Armies in England, and was on his way to the Western Front as a junior officer with the Leicestershire 11th. Trotter always had been a good correspondent; he continued to keep in contact with his family throughout his travels, his training and travails. On Sunday afternoon, 6 May 1917, Trotter found time to complete another letter home. The following evening, a shell exploded close to the 26-year-old assistant transport officer. He dropped from his horse, killed instantly. Bernard Trotter like more than 60,000 other Canadians, never returned home from the Great War. He was remembered. The young man's family and friends honored his sacrifice by collecting and publishing his poetry. Although Trotter complained that his poetic Muse could not flourish among the interruptions and lack of privacy of military life, the best of the poems which appear here, were written overseas and establish his reputation as one of Canada's war poets.
