With the bookplate of Martin Seymour-Smith who contributes to the discussion. Some spotting from the glue of the bookplate? Martin Roger Seymour-Smith (24 April 1928 - 1 July 1998) was a British poet, literary critic, biographer and astrologer.[1] Seymour-Smith was born in London and educated at Highgate School and St Edmund Hall, Oxford, where he was editor of Isis.[2] He began as one of the most promising of Anglophone post-war poets, but became better known as a critic, writing biographies of Robert Graves (whom he met first at age 14 and maintained close ties with), Rudyard Kipling and Thomas Hardy, and producing numerous critical studies. The poet and critic Robert Nye stated that Seymour-Smith was "one of the finest British poets after 1945."[3] Others to praise his poetry included Robert Graves, C. H. Sisson, Geoffrey Grigson and James Reeves. Book.
