De Vere, Aubrey Thomas

    0.12 sec.

De Vere, Aubrey Thomas (1814–1902)

Irish poet. De Vere was born at Curragh Chase, County Limerick, and educated at Trinity College, Dublin. His later verse was inspired by Irish themes; his Innisfail (1863) was a catalogue of the woes of Ireland and The Foray of Queen Maeve (1882) retold legends of Ireland's heroic age. Besides poems, he also wrote prose concerning Ireland's wrongs. He was the son of the poet Aubrey De Vere.

De Vere published The Waldenses, or the Fall of Rora (1842) and in the following year issued a companion volume, The Search after Proserpine, Recollections of Greece and other Poems. English Misrule and Irish Misdeeds (1848) was his chief prose work; Ireland and Proportional Representation (1885) the last. He published his Recollections (1897).
