Despite being praised by poets such as T.S. Eliot, W.H. Auden and Seamus Heaney, David Jones is still an «awful outsider»—in his own words—in the canon of contemporary poetry. Focusing in particular on In Parenthesis (1937) and its critical reception, this essay outlines the meaning of the poem in the corpus of writings on the Great War and explores Jones’ relationship with the literary generations of his time.

Abstract
Despite being praised by poets such as T.S. Eliot, W.H. Auden and Seamus Heaney, David Jones is still an «awful outsider»—in his own words—in the canon of contemporary poetry. Focusing in particular on In Parenthesis (1937) and its critical reception, this essay outlines the meaning of the poem in the corpus of writings on the Great War and explores Jones’ relationship with the literary generations of his time.
