Abstract
The Austrian-born exile writer and translator Erich Fried had, by the time of his death in November 1988, become one of the leading modern German poets with numerous publications to his credit including volumes of poetry and prose, plays, a novel and many translations from English literature. The development of Fried, from an impoverished refugee living in London in 1945 to a major representative of modern German literature took place largely as a result of his employment with the BBC German Service. The following article examines Fried's activities at Bush House during this important stage in his career.
