HISTORY AND AIMS OF THE STEPHEN SPENDER MEMORIAL TRUST |
| |
The Stephen Spender Memorial Trust aims to widen knowledge of 20th century English literature, with particular focus on Stephen Spender's circle of writers. The Trust also promotes literary translation, helps contemporary writers of prose and poetry reach an English-language readership and, through a modest grants programme (currently on hold), facilitates translation projects which otherwise would not be viable.
The Stephen Spender Memorial Trust was set up in 1997 to honour Spender's achievements as poet and translator of poetry, and as champion of the rights of creative artists and writers to free expression.
