bard Ben Jonson Benjamin Jonson Betjeman Boccaccio Browning Carducci Carew Chaucer Coleridge Davenant Dickinson Donne Dryden Giosue Carducci Herbert Herrick Hughes Jonson | But blue sky was never far away, and the sun would lance out to blaze across steep meadows of emerald and wild russet acres of heather moorland, setting fire to leaves in steep shady valleys and glinting off silver puddles, making lyrical poets of us all, it seems.

In the 1980s he began to develop a reputation both as a film actor - notably in Cry Freedom (1987), Mandela (also 1987, a film for television in which he played Walter Sisulu), Leon Schuster's There's a Zulu on My Stoep (1993) and Hijack Stories (2000) - and as a lyrical poet. |
