Literary landscapes If I should die, think only this of me, That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England.
The poet Rupert Brooke penned some of the most famous lines in English Poetry, at the beginning of the First World War.
He was once described as the handsomest man in England, and was one of a number of writers, like Virginia Woolf and EM Forster and Thomas Hardy whose experience of the places they loved affected their writing.
In the next of a Woman's Hour series on literary landscapes, Jane Brown told Jennifer Chevalier about the poet whose life began in Rugby in Warwickshire.
Jane Brown is author of Spirits of Place - Five Famous Lives in Their English Landscape (Viking, ISBN: 0670880000, 拢20.00).
