The Golden Bridle is an anthology of the most important writings on poetry and poetics by C. Day-Lewis, one of the major figures in British poetry and cultural life from the mid-twentieth century until his death in 1972. Day-Lewis was a poet centrally concerned not only with the craft of poetry and the kind of truth that it expresses but with the role of the poet in society and the function of poetry and the work of the imagination in the cultural and moral life of the community. These writings present a powerful and nuanced argument for a humanist conception of the poet's vital place in the world.
