Revision as of 17:18, 12 June 2023
The Reverend Edwin Emmanuel Bradford (1860-1944) was an English clergyman and Uranian poet. He attended Exeter College, Oxford, and received his B.A. 1884. He was vicar of Nordelph, Norfolk, from 1905 to 1944. Rev. Bradford's verse was outspokenly gay, but also remarkably popular during his lifetime. His work can just barely be interpreted as a sign of innocent "romantic friendship" with youths, but several verses, such as "The Bather in the Blue Grotto at Capri" and "Alan", are plainly erotically inspired. Many of his poems are direct though sometimes self-effacing pleas of love to the young males in his life. In the Reverend's own words:
- Here's a loyal and a loving heart,
- Take it, lad, or leave it.
In 2023, an anthology collection My Love Is Like All Lovely Things, showcases Brandford's poetry and includes exhaustive analysis of his life and work.
