  • Francis Ledwidge (Slane, 19 augustus 1887 - Boezinge, 31 juli 1917) was een Iers nationalist en Engelstalig dichter. Als autodidact had hij het, in zijn dichtkunst, over de natuur en het Ierse landschap. Ledwidge werd geboren in een arm gezin en werkte als boerenknecht, mijnwerker en als stratenmaker. Alhoewel aangetrokken tot het Ierse zelfbewustzijn verkoos hij toch om dienst te nemen in het Engelse leger. Hij werd eerst uitgestuurd naar Turkije om daar uitgeput in de hospitalen van Saloniki en Caïro te belanden. Nadien kwam zijn eerste bundel Songs of the Fields uit. (nl)
