Robert Calverl(e)y Trevelyan (; 28 June 1872 – 21 March 1951) was an English poet and translator, of a traditionalist sort, and a follower of the lapidary style of Logan Pearsall Smith. ==Life== Trevelyan was the second son of Sir George Trevelyan, 2nd Baronet and his wife Caroline ''née'' Philips, who was the daughter of Robert Needham Philips MP, a Liberal Member of Parliament and textile merchant from Lancashire. Trevelyan was the brother of Sir Charles Trevelyan, 3rd Baronet, and of the historian G. M. Trevelyan. He was born in Weybridge and educated at Wixenford (where he was known as "the Dodo" and was a particular friend of Frederick Lawrence),〔Frederick Pethick-Lawrence, 1st Baron Pethick-Lawrence, ''Fate Has Been Kind'' (1943), p. 20〕 then at Harrow. From 1891 to 1895 he studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he became one of the Cambridge Apostles. He studied Classics and then law; his father wanted him to follow a career as a barrister, but his ambition was to be a poet.〔William C. Lubenow, ''The Cambridge Apostles, 1820-1914: Liberalism, Imagination, and Friendship in British Intellectual and Professional Life'' (1998), p. 178〕 Described as a "rumpled, eccentric poet", and sometimes considered a rather ineffectual person, he was close to the Bloomsbury Group, who called him 'Bob Trevy'.〔Nicola Beauman, ''Morgan: A biography of E. M. Forster'' (1993), p. 116.〕 He had a wide further range of social connections: George Santayana from 1905;〔John McCormick, ''George Santayana: A Biography'' (2003), p. 114.〕 Isaac Rosenberg;〔http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/ltg/projects/jtap/rose/life.html〕〔Vivien Noakes, ''The Poems and Plays of Isaac Rosenberg: A Critical Edition'' (2004), p. xliv.〕 Bernard Berenson; Bertrand Russell; G. E. Moore; E. M. Forster with whom he and Goldsworthy Lowes Dickinson travelled to India in 1912.〔E. M. Forster, ''Goldsworthy Lowes Dickinson'' (1962 edition), p. 135.〕 His pacifist principles extended to sheltering John Rodker, "on the run" as a conscientious objector during World War I. He married the Dutch musician Elizabeth van der Hoeven; the artist Julian Trevelyan was their son. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「R. C. Trevelyan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
