Description:Excerpt from The Religious Poems of Lionel Johnson: Being a Selection From His Collected Works The name of Lionel Johnson labels a traditionalist, not only in literature but in life. The boy who loved his Winchester had that logic of sentiment which took him back to Winchester's founder and his faith. The Oxford of lost causes, which are always being refound, was that which added its fragile son to the nest of singers who became the religious neophytes of "the nineties." Lionel Johnson is the label for a Christian of high, however defeated, endeavour; for a poet endeared to us, even in those tones that are "lower than his greatness," as Emerson somewhere says, speaking of Coleridge. As all this, and more than all this, the label remains to us in his written word and in the printed loyalties of those who loved him. It is a keen joy to see it placed on the title-page of a volume containing the most directly religious, and therefore the most deeply vital, of his poems. Lionel Johnson was English born, at Broadstairs, a geographical detail one needs perhaps to recall when reading the poetry he gave to Ireland.
