Biographical note
Alfred Noyes was born September 16, 1880 at Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, England to Alfred Noyesand Amelia Adams, née Rowley. He entered Exeter College in 1898 with the intention of taking a degreein English. Rather than complete his final examinations, Noyes opted to keep an appointment withLondon publisher Grant Richards. The meeting resulted in the publication of his first book of poems, TheLoom of Years (1902). Several more volumes of poetry soon followed. Noyes composed his verse in astyle consciously descended from Tennyson and the romantic poets and was a staunch opponent of whathe deemed "modernism" in literature.
In 1907, Noyes married Garnett Upham, née Daniels, the daughter of American consul Colonel ByronGordon Daniels. Strengthening his ties to America, in 1911 Noyes began a lecture tour of the U.S. thatincluded delivery of the Lowell Lecture at Harvard University (1913) and resulted in his being appointedMurray professor of English literature at Princeton University (1914-1923). This tenure was interruptedby the First World War. Rejected from military service because of poor eyesight, Noyes began work inthe newsroom of the British Foreign Office in 1916. Shortly thereafter, he was shown the incriminatingdiaries of former British diplomat Roger Casement, who was convicted of treason for his involvement inthe 1916 Easter Rising. Although Noyes believed the diaries to be authentic at the time, he later changedhis opinion and worked for Casement's vindication as late as 1957 when he published The AccusingGhost of Roger Casement.
In 1926, Noyes's wife died. The following year, he joined the Roman Catholic Church. Noyes maintainedthat his conversion was motivated not by apologists but primarily by nineteenth century agnostics, asreflected in The Unknown God (1934) and his controversial biography Voltaire (1936). In Septemberof 1927, Noyes married Mary Angela Mayne, widow of Richard Weld-Blundell and member of an oldCatholic family. In 1929, they settled on the Isle of Wight. Their home there would be the inspiration forthe popular Orchard's Bay (1939).
In 1940-1941, Noyes and his family moved to America and Canada, where he lectured and promotedcooperation between the U.S. and Great Britain. His eyesight had continued to deteriorate, and adevastating surgery for glaucoma in the mid-1940's left him unable to read. Noyes remained in Californiafor some time before returning to the Isle of Wight in 1949.
Throughout his career, Noyes garnered popular acclaim for his lectures and public readings, receivedhonorary doctorates from Yale, Glasgow, Berkeley and Syracuse, was involved in two publiccontroversies and was named a Commander of the British Empire (1918). Best known for his poem "TheHighwayman," Alfred Noyes was a leading man of letters who produced works of poetry and criticism,fiction (including short stories and novels), non-fiction, essays, plays and lectures. His works wereadapted for the screen, the stage, and set to music. He died on June 28, 1958.
