Extract
This manuscript was begun in Uppsala as the global novel coronavirus pandemic began, and completed in Mie, Japan as it continued, drawing extensively upon manuscript holdings in the United States and Great Britain. It could not have been completed without the generous open research initiatives of several leading private and public libraries, and the kind assistance of many dedicated research librarians working under immensely trying circumstances: thank you for supporting this work. For permission to quote from Dowson’s fair-copy manuscript notebook, the so-called Flower Notebook (MA 1480), and related holograph material, and to reproduce ‘Claire: la Lune!’ here, I must thank the Morgan Library and Museum, New York: gaining access to this material—a gift of C. Waller Barrett, 1953—was a revelation. I am delighted to acknowledge the Henry W. and Albert A. Berg Collection of English and American Literature, New York Public Library, Astor, Lenox, and Tolden Foundations, for providing access to Dowson’s authorial proof of Decorations: In Verse and Prose, and for permission to reproduce its title page here. I am immensely obliged to Princeton University Library for providing liberal remote access to their Ernest Dowson Collection and to the J. Harlin O’Connell Collection on English Artists, 1825–1952, and for permission to cite therefrom. My thanks are also due to the British Library Board for permission to quote from Add MS 45135, and to reproduce the image of Dowson as a Child from page 8. Thanks, also, to the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library, University of California, Los Angeles, for access to, and permission to cite from, Dowson’s unpublished letters. I gladly acknowledge the Bibliothèque nationale de France for permission to reproduce the photograph of William Theodore Peters; the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research for permission to reproduce the photograph of Lillie Langtry; and the Agence Photographique de la Réunion des musées nationaux for permission to reproduce Un dimanche, enfants de Marie by Henri Guinier. I am especially obliged to Prior John Babeau of St Hugh’s Charterhouse for the virtual hospitality and patient explanations, for allowing me to cite the Chronicle of St Hugh’s, and to reproduce Antoine Sublet’s mural, Le martyr de religieux sous Henri VIII, installed on the south wall of the Fathers’ Chapterhouse.
