This is the first collected edition of the writings of the poet, critic, and philosopher T.E. Hulme (1883-1917). Hulme wrote some of the first "modernist" poems in English, helped introduce the philosophy of Henri Bergson to Britain and the U.S., and was one of the first English critics to write about modern art. This edition contains extensive notes to Hulme's writings, together with a substantial biographical and critical introduction.
Professional philosophers of the late twentieth century must surely admire and delight in T.E. Hulme's sparky, tough, imaginative and totally un-shy intelligence...All his writing is a tonic to the mind because it is so endearingly unguarded and generative of thought, talk and liberating flights of conjecture.
