Введение
Английский австралийский поэт Крис Алан Хеменсли (родился 26 апреля 1946 года) — английский австралийский поэт, опубликовавший около 20 поэтических сборников. В конце 1960-х и 1970-х годах он участвовал в поэтических семинарах в La Mama и редактировал литературные журналы Our Glass, The Ear in a Wheatfield и другие. Журнал The Ear сыграл важную роль, предоставив площадку для публикации поэтов, чьи работы выходили за рамки общепринятых (например, Дженнифер Мейден). В 1969 и 1970 годах он вёл программу «Мельбурн с Крисом Хеменсли» на радио ABC. В 1970-х годах он был поэтическим редактором журнала Meanjin.
Kris Alan Hemensley (born 26 April 1946) is an English Australian poet who has published around 20 collections of poetry. Through the late 1960s and '70s he was involved in poetry workshops at La Mama, and edited the literary magazines Our Glass, The Ear in a Wheatfield, and others. The Ear played an important role in providing a place where poets writing outside what was then the mainstream (such as Jennifer Maiden) could publish their work. In 1969 and 1970 he presented the program Kris Hemensley's Melbourne on ABC Radio. In the 1970s he was poetry editor for Meanjin
The son of an Egyptian mother and an English father who was stationed in Egypt with the Royal Air Force, Hemensley was born on the Isle of Wight, and spent his early childhood in Alexandria. He visited Australia at the age of 18, and emigrated there in 1966. He was awarded the Christopher Brennan Award in 2005, which recognizes poetry of "sustained quality and distinction". Hemensley managed Collected Works, a specialist poetry bookshop in Melbourne, Australia, until it closed down in late 2018.
Сын египетской матери и английского отца, служившего в Королевских ВВС в Египте, Хеменсли родился на острове Уайт и провёл ранние годы в Александрии. Он впервые посетил Австралию в 18 лет и эмигрировал туда в 1966 году. В 2005 году он был удостоен премии имени Кристофера Бреннана за поэзию «устойчивого качества и самобытности». До закрытия в конце 2018 года Хеменсли управлял специализированным книжным магазином поэзии Collected Works в Мельбурне, Австралия.
