Dymock Poets

The Dymock Poets were a loosely connected group of early 20th-century poets associated with the Gloucestershire village of Dymock, where several of them lived, met, and wrote in the years just before World War I. The group is usually linked with Georgian poetry and includes Robert Frost, Edward Thomas, Wilfred Gibson, Rupert Brooke, John Drinkwater, and Lascelles Abercrombie.

Example

Robert Frost and Edward Thomas are often discussed as part of the Dymock Poets because their work and friendship grew out of the Dymock circle in the years before World War I.
