eng	Landscape as a Benchmark	W.H. Auden had a profound and clearly defined spatial awareness. As an editor of anthologies, Professor of Poetry at Oxford, author of essays, reviews, forewords and introductions, Auden was also prolific in the profession of a literary critic judging the work of others as well as his own. This presentation will seek connections between these two facets of the poet. The presentation will examine Auden’s readiness to use other poets’ topophilic responsiveness to the physical environment and landscape as a benchmark for assessing their poetic qualities. Examining Auden’s critical assessment of Wordsworth, Hardy, Betjeman and Rilke on the basis of their poetics of place, the presentation will trace patterns of development of this type of Auden’s critical method.
