Notă biografică
The poet and painter David Jones (1895-1974) was one of the most important and original voices in British modernism. His epic poem In Parenthesis was described by T.S. Eliot as 'a work of genius' and by Stephen Spender as 'the most monumental work of poetic genius to come out of World War I' and his many admirers included W.B. Yeats, W.H. Auden and Herbert Read. Thomas Goldpaugh is Professor Emeritus of English at Marist College, USA. Jamie Callison is Associate Professor of British and American Literature at Nord University, Norway.

Recenzii
An indispensable addition to the Jones corpus. It is also a deeply impressive textual achievement, and a brilliantly realized and instructive engagement with a rich and complex literary archive . The fullness of Jones's vision on the page is honoured, and poetic practices which might seem esoteric are validated and released for the reader's appreciation ... [Goldpaugh and Callison's] curiosity and authority as editors shines through with the same force whether they are describing Jones's use of pencil, ink or biro, or revisiting the ambiguous and provocative issue of his political attitudes.
The editors' [work is] devoted, skilled, and erudite ... The reconstruction of The Grail Mass does read as a coherent and convincing text, from Mass opening to the close of the soldiers' watch on the wall. This is a tribute to the literary, as well as the editorial craft of Goldpaugh and Callison ... Another joy of this book is the opportunity to read and compare four versions of the 'Mass opening' (one in The Grail Mass, three in the 'Other Works').
This volume will appeal to a variety of audiences: modernists, theologists, and Welsh literary scholars ... It is a substantial, alternative volume to The Roman Quarry, advancing our understanding of Jones's work in significant ways.
