uwmspeccoll:Happy Winter Solstice!!!This year we celebrate the return of the light with Harold Munro’s poem The WInter Solstice, published in London by Faber & Gwyer in 1928 with drawings by David Jones and printed by the Curwen Press. The Winter Solstice was the 13th title in Faber & Gwyer’s Ariel Poems series, which produced 46 four-page pamphlets with poems and illustrations by noted contemporary writers and artists from 1927-1954.A few of us here at UWM Special Collections have our own private rituals to honor this most important day of the year. If you do the same, we hope you celebrate the sun with “a large feast to glorify the rite” to honor “the clean recapture of his former light.”View our previous Winter Solstice posts.Let there be light! -- source link
