   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.09 sec.

Bottomley, Gordon (1874-1948)

English poet and dramatist. His most successful verse drama, King Lear's Wife (1915), is a prelude to Shakespeare's play, and his finest lyrical verse is collected in Poems of Thirty Years (1925).

He was born in Keighley, Yorkshire. His first book of verse, The Mickle Drede, appeared 1896 and was followed by many others, including The Gate of Smaragdus (1904). The plays The Crier by Night (1902) and The Riding to Lithend (1909) first illustrated his devotion to the resuscitation of English poetic drama.
