英国诗人，评论家和翻译Arthur Symons出生于威尔士，由私人辅导员教育。At 16, Symons moved to London, where he joined a vibrant literary community and participated, alongside poets like William Butler Yeats, in the notorious Rhymers’ Club, a group of poets and writers responsible for witty repartee anthologies such as The Book of the Rhymers’ Club (1892), in which Symons’s poems appeared. His formal poetry explores romantic love, loss, and the passage of time. Symons’s literary career was cut short by a devastating mental breakdown in 1908.
