Calverley, Charles Stuart, 1831-1884

Charles S. Calverley was a Victorian author, known for his light, satirical verse. Born Charles Stuart Blayds, he compiled a checkered career at Cambridge and later Oxford, taking many prizes and honors upon his graduation. He trained and practiced as a lawyer, but committed time to writing, focussing on translations and highly-praised light verse. His wicked parodies were ground-breaking in their subtlety, and his adherence to traditonal style countered the ambitious verse of his contemporaries.
