Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 'Sonnets and poems by Miss C. A. Renshaw, Sheffield'. Constance Ada Renshaw's hand-written collection of her own work. The collection completely fills an old Rotherham Education Committee exercise book. The book is undated, but the last date mentioned is 1939. I do not know if all of the m…aterial has been previously published. Written inside front cover: To the Memory of all those Men and Women Who have 'Lifted an imperious name Beyond the narrow bounds of mortal mood, Fanning with the quick impulse of their fame The crawling moments of the multitude.' LADY, MARGARET SACKVILLE'. Contents: 'Revenant', 'Disillusionment', 'The Roads of Heaven', 'Oblivion I & II', 'Love and Death', 'To Sheffield', 'Democracy', 'Had Christ Lived Now', 'Centenary : 1937', 'Modernity', 'Mockers', 'The Cockpit', 'Betrayal' , 'New Year's Day, 1939', 'John Drinkwater, died March 25th, 1937' [acrostic], 'Sir James Barrie died June 19th, 1937', 'Crisis', 'Prayer for Armistice Day 1938', 'Compensation I & II', 'Hencefaring', Vale (January, 1936.)', 'Anniversary (January, 1937)', 'King Edward VIII', 'Kingship (December, 1936)', 'Rupert Brooke (Died April 23rd, 1915)', 'Haigh of Bemesyde (February 1928)', 'Credo', 'The Benison of Silence', 'How should we fail them', 'Advocates', 'Sheffield War Memorial (A stainless steel flag-staff)', 'Sheffield', 'That Far and Frenzied Dawn', 'The Dumb Men Speak', 'This Other Eden', 'The Passing of Submarine MI', 'Boyhood', 'The Men Who Came Back', 'Man', 'Woman', 'Books I', Books II', 'Books V', 'New Year's Day, 1936', 'The Milky Way', 'Singers I', 'Singers II', 'The Lure of England', 'The Camerons'. The book came with a small collection of other unrelated material and I cannot say how or when it came to be separated from the author or her family. I have studiously compared the hand-writing in the book to another example of Constance Ada Renshaw's handwriting held at the Sheffield Local Archives and am thoroughly convinced that the two are by the same hand. Softback. 17 x 20 cm. Covers a little worn and discoloured. Staples rusted with corresponding loss & rust marks. Split to base of spine. Contents clean except for odd ink blot. Binding ok at moment with only the centre pages loose ('Kingship', 'Rupert Brooke', 'Haigh of Bemesyde' & 'Credo'). Constance Ada Renshaw (1891 - 1964), war poet, was born on the 27th March 1891 in Sheffield, where she lived all her life. Her parents were John William Renshaw (1861?1924) and Ada Johnson (1862?1935). Constance was educated at the Central Secondary School in Sheffield and later attended Sheffield University. She began teaching in 1913 and from 1916 until her retirement in 1937 she worked at Sheffield City Grammar School, teaching a variety of subjects from music to English, Arithmetic to Needlework. She also lectured to the students of Sheffield University on the importance of teaching English in schools. She was one of the first women to read her poetry on the wireless in a regional broadcast in Sheffield in 1924. Her key texts include: ?England?s boys: a woman?s war poems? (Published 1916), ?Battle and beyond? (Published 1917) and ?Lest we forget? (Published 1937). Constance died in Sheffield on 30th May 1964. --- More information and images available upon request.
