Genre(s)[edit]

first of two new sections

At Herbert Farjeon we list the same four collaborations by brother and sister: Kings and Queens (1932), The Two Bouquets (1938), An Elephant in Arcady (1939), and The Glass Slipper (1944). There we call them simply "books" without hint of any public performance or hint what kind of books. Since coverage of his plays and revues, at that point we have briefly covered his theatr-critical work, his theatr-historical books(?) about Elizabethan theatre, and his edition of Shakespeare's plays.

One online biography of HF[1] includes The Two Bouquets in a list of his revues; it names none of the other three. Of his revues it does note that "many of which were published", which implies that many were not and hints that EF's role may have been to write up more promising theatrical stuff for print publication.

Here at Eleanor Farjeon we call the four collabo-works "productions" which hints theatrical material, perhaps without print editions. We also list them without transition from identifying HF as "Shakespearean scholar and drama critic", which hints that some of their collaboration was Shakespearean or critical. (On first reading I supposed that all four were nonfiction works about theatrical-literary stuff. Now I suspect that none were.)

"Productions" also hints that one or both Farjeons served as Theatrical producer.

Sequence[edit]

second of two sections posted at once

The sequence is odd. We mention "childhood" family holidays without date and without transition a 1907 holiday in France at age 26. After her career seems to be underway we go back (careful readers will infer) to her libretto at age 18 without date and hop more than thirty years (careful readers will infer) forward to collaboration with another brother. Did she work with either brother during the 1900s, 10s, 20s?

Roughly when did she enter (and perhaps leave) "life among the literary and theatrical circles of London"? Some specification will be helpful there too.

Socialist[edit]

Her topical work for The Herald, Reynolds News and New Leader was perhaps the most accomplished of any socialist poet of the 1920s and 30s.

There is no mention of her politics anywhere else in the article. Can we have some support for classifying her as a socialist poet? Valetude (talk) 23:26, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Eleanor Farjeon[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Eleanor Farjeon's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "rpm":

From Morning Has Broken: "RPM100 Singles" (PDF). RPM. 17 June 1972. Retrieved 5 April 2020.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 09:04, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
