When the Humanitarian League wrote to Hardy requesting permission to publish three of his poems (‘The Blinded Bird’, ‘The Puzzled Game-Birds’ and ‘Wagtail and Baby’), the author sent the request swiftly on to Macmillan (Collected Letters, V, p. 240).

The expressed intention of Lloyd’s introduction and the poems selected in his anthology is to provide a general history of the representation of animals in Western literature.
